Set on a quiet cul-de-sac in historic Carisbrooke, this extended Edwardian semi blends original character with a light, vaulted lounge/diner extension. The house offers flexible living — a ground-floor room currently used as an office but formerly a bedroom — and comfortable three-bedroom accommodation ideal for a growing family.
The long rear garden and an additional “secret” woodland gate create a semi-rural feel and strong outdoor appeal, with established fruit trees, shrubs and a tranquil nature area beyond. The property sits adjacent to an allotment and is close to local shops, pubs, bus routes and a range of well-rated primary schools, giving practical everyday convenience.
Built c.1900–1929, the home has period features such as fireplaces but also practical limitations: the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, double glazing install date is unknown and there is a single shower room. These facts present both heating/efficiency considerations and scope for sympathetic updating or renovation.
Practical positives include mains gas heating with a boiler and radiators, freehold tenure and affordable council tax. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, making the house suitable for remote working. Overall, this is a characterful family home with generous outdoor space and clear potential for modernisation to improve energy performance and layout.
