Detached 1930s home with roomy living spaces and character features
This 1930s detached house in Carisbrooke offers generous living space across two floors, ideal for a growing family. Ground floor includes lounge, kitchen/diner, conservatory and a useful downstairs WC, while three good-sized bedrooms and a modern family bathroom sit upstairs. The property is freehold and sits on a decent plot with a large rear garden and multiple storage sheds.
Practical benefits include a driveway for several vehicles, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for home working or streaming. The location is family-friendly: short walks to Victoria Recreation Ground, several well-rated primary schools and Newport town centre with main bus routes nearby. There is scope to extend, making this a flexible long-term home with potential to add value.
Buyers should note a few material considerations: the property has cavity walls assumed without insulation and double glazing fitted before 2002, so thermal performance may be below modern standards. Main heating is via mains gas and room heaters, suggesting some elements may be dated and could benefit from upgrading to improve efficiency and comfort.
Local area indicators are largely positive — affluent area, no flood risk and affordable council tax — but crime is above average, which some buyers will want to investigate further. Overall, this is a solid family home in a sought-after part of Carisbrooke with garden space, parking and potential for renovation or extension to suit changing needs.
