Main Road, Havenstreet, Isle of Wight

A beautifully presented period home, rich in history and charm, located in the picturesque village of Havenstreet. Built nearly 200 years ago as part of the historic Fleming Estate, this substantial stone cottage has been thoughtfully extended and comprehensively upgraded to create a spacious, light-filled family home that perfectly balances original character with modern comforts.

Set on the corner of Main Road and Church Road, the property enjoys an enviable position within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Internally, the home offers a flowing, open-plan layout that includes a welcoming entrance hall, two connected living spaces filled with natural light, and a versatile dining/snug area with French doors to the garden. The standout feature is a stunning kitchen within a contemporary extension, boasting vaulted ceilings, skylights, an island with breakfast bar, and high-end appliances. A utility room and stylish cloakroom complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, the home features three generous bedrooms, each with charming views of the surrounding countryside, and a recently refurbished family bathroom with a large walk-in shower and quality fittings. Throughout the home, upgrades such as new windows and doors, a new boiler, and underfloor heating in the kitchen reflect the high standard of renovation.

Outside, a gated gravel driveway provides ample parking, and the gardens wrap around the property with beautifully landscaped terraces, lawns, and a charming summer house set on an elevated lawn.

Havenstreet itself is a quintessential English village with a popular inn, a heritage steam railway, and miles of scenic countryside walks, yet is only a short drive from the vibrant coastal town of Ryde. Offering period charm, modern living, and a tranquil setting, this property is a rare and exceptional opportunity.

What the Owner says:

When we were contacted by the estate agents we couldn't believe our luck; having been sold it came back on the market fortuitously for us and after one visit put in an offer which was accepted there and then.

Since then, we have loved living in this warm and comfortable home with its exceptionally sunny disposition. Our grandson loves coming to his big house! The extension helped our home to flow more naturally for us.

The village has been so friendly and welcoming we will be sorry to leave our friends. In an ideal world we could pick up this property and place it where we wish to move to.
