5 bedroom detached bungalow for sale

Located towards the end of rural, private lane and elevated to enjoy the breathtaking landscape of its surrounding countryside, with far reaching views extending as far the Spinnaker tower in Portsmouth and Chichester Cathedral on a clear day. This deceiving, detached property was built in 1990, yet provides the façade of a character home, built in Island stone, with an impressive stone portico entrance porch, elevating the homes period appearance on arrival. The property has a large, modern barn adjacent to the house, ideal for vehicle storage and workshop space with extensive storage for machinery. Accompanying the property is 10.25 acres, 7.5 acres leased on a remaining 28-year term from the National Trust, the remaining land owned by the property. Currently the owner uses the land for grazing sheep, but due to its size the possibilities are abundant for the new owner. The home is vast with substantial rooms, to both its ground and first floor accommodation and has been used as a successful bed and breakfast retreat by the current owners, with five bedrooms and five bathrooms. Three of the bedrooms are located on the ground floor, with two further double rooms on the first floor, the main bedroom is laid out currently as a suite with an additional room, which could be used as a dressing room or study, or alternatively a door put back from the main landing to allow for an additional separate bedroom on the first floor. The property was extended in 2012, with a large single storey extension, creating a fantastic kitchen-dining-living room, and two additional ground floor bedrooms with accompanying bathroom, whilst also creating a fantastic roof terrace which extends the full width of the home to enjoy the impressive surroundings. From every room in the home there is an enchanting outlook, whether you are entertaining in the dual aspect sitting room, working in the ground floor study, with its floor to ceiling picture window, or laying in bed enjoying a rest in one of the large first floor double bedrooms. The views will never fail to take your breath away, an everchanging tapestry of impressive countryside. From the property itself, there are an array of public footpaths and bridleways, and the historic Hoy Monument is visible and easily accessible from the home, allowing occupants to explore the network of beautiful walks and enjoy the delightful scenery that this part of the Island provides.

What the Owner says:
We stumbled across our home over 30 years ago and fell in love with the peaceful setting, since then it has been a family home, a business and a place to relax and enjoy the wildlife, quietness and huge dark skies.

It's been a delight living here and hopefully the new owners will feel the same way too.

Due to its remote location, the property is heated with oil fired heating, however the current owner has sensibly installed solar panels, allowing them to benefit from the homes Southerly and open aspect and assist in the properties running costs.
