Property description
AGENTS COMMENTS It's not often a property comes to the market that offers the joys of living in a 18th century Cottage without scrimping on space and having a modern twist. This beautiful home oozes charm and character and boasts some pretty impressive living accommodation with two open fireplaces either end of the lounge with one being an original inglenook fireplace with bakers over. The lounge is bright and offers an array of space which makes this an ideal area to sit back, relax and enjoy the cottage lifestyle. The current owners have taken on the responsibility of restoring this charming home and have added some mod cons along the way. All new windows and a new boiler have been fitted making it a warm and economical place to come home to. The kitchen/diner is a spacious area and the real 'hub of the home' for the current owners as they spend many hours cooking up their culinary dishes in this great area to entertain friends and family. There's space to park multiple cars on the driveway along with a garage and workshop. Outside the wrap around garden has been professionally landscaped and is a peaceful and tranquil place to spend your summer evenings.
OWNERS COMMENTS We moved to the Isle of Wight nine years ago. We had looked at quite a few properties and locations around the Island but when we saw Box Cottage tucked away in this peaceful village location, nestled in the downs, we both knew it was the one for us. We fell in love with the area and the cottage and relished the thought of making it our own. We feel we have created a stunning, spacious, cosy home, fit for modern living and have really enjoyed living here. We have made numerous modernisations and changes to the cottage as well as landscaping the garden. We feel that the garden is beautiful as well as easy to maintain. We will be very sad to leave this lovely home and the community that we have become so involved with but are retuning to the mainland because of family commitments and what we hope will be the start of another adventure!
