Detached House for sale with 5 bedrooms, Fishbourne, Isle of Wight

A substantial detached family house offering privacy, generous gardens, extensive parking and three garages. Ideally positioned between Newport and Ryde, with easy access to the Portsmouth ferry. Further benefits include planning permission for a two-bedroom detached lodge, partially constructed, creating exciting potential for additional accommodation, multi-generational living or investment. Tucked away at the end of a long, shared private driveway, this impressive and versatile home enjoys a wonderfully secluded setting, surrounded by mature trees and established gardens. Despite its peaceful and private position, the property is ideally placed for convenient access to the car ferry to Portsmouth, while sitting centrally between the popular towns of Newport and Ryde, providing an excellent choice of everyday amenities, schools and commuter links. Approached via a tree-lined driveway, the property is exceptionally well screened from the road, creating an immediate sense of privacy and tranquillity. The generous grounds extend to the front, side and rear, offering considerable outdoor space for families, entertaining and relaxation. To the front is extensive parking, complemented by three single garages, providing excellent storage and parking provision. One of the property's most exciting features is the additional development potential within the grounds. The current owners obtained planning permission for a two-bedroom detached lodge, which is already partially constructed but remains incomplete. This represents a rare opportunity for a new owner to create a substantial additional residence, ideal for extended family, guests, independent living or potentially an income-generating opportunity, subject to the necessary consents. The same planning application also included permission for a two-storey rear extension to the large kitchen/dining room. Inside, the accommodation is equally impressive, offering five bedrooms arranged over two floors and a flexible layout particularly suited to modern family life or multi-generational living. The ground floor provides three well-proportioned bedrooms, all conveniently served by a modern family bathroom. The heart of the home is undoubtedly the generous kitchen/living space, where a triple aspect floods the room with natural light. Attractive fitted units are complemented by a large central island, creating a natural divide between the kitchen and living areas while retaining the wonderful sense of openness. This is a superb space for everyday family life as well as entertaining. Further ground-floor accommodation includes a comfortable sitting room and a separate dining room, providing plenty of flexibility for formal occasions, quiet relaxation or working from home. Upstairs, two further double bedrooms each benefit from fitted storage and their own modern en-suite shower rooms. Both rooms enjoy lovely views through the surrounding copse, providing a peaceful outlook and a wonderful connection with the natural setting. Combining generous accommodation, substantial gardens, extensive parking, exceptional privacy and exciting development potential, this is a truly versatile property. Whether you are looking for a spacious family home, accommodation for guests or extended family, or the opportunity to create an additional dwelling within the grounds, this property offers an enviable combination of lifestyle and potential in a highly convenient location.
