<p><strong>Welcome to Rowborough House</strong></p><p>Nestled into the Bowcombe Valley, surrounded by farmland, this beautifully renovated family home has been well maintained by the owners of ten years who have completely transformed this property into a stylish country home. Built circa. 1930 this characterful home offers fantastic accommodation arranged over two floors including two reception rooms and a snug, a conservatory, a country kitchen with an adjoining utility room, four bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a ground floor cloakroom. The property has a versatile layout and could be ideal for a multigenerational family or an investment opportunity, with the added benefit of a separate mobile home annex providing further family or guest accommodation. The property also offers development opportunity with space to extend out or into the large loft space, if required by the new owners (subject to gaining planning consent). Set within a generous plot, the property’s garden is mostly laid to lawn and offers an elevated patio area, making the most of the surrounding views. To one side of the property is the paddock which provides further opportunity for a number of uses depending on the new owners requirements. There is ample driveway parking, including an in-and-out driveway plus additional parking, a garage, and a carport to the rear.</p><p>Offering a peaceful position within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (now known as National Landscapes), the property is situated in the Bowcombe Valley, on the outskirts of Shorwell, enjoying views of the surrounding hills in every direction. The property is situated just a stones throw to a whole network of idyllic countryside footpaths, bridleways, and byways connecting with the island famous Tennyson Trail and Brighstone Forest. A host of local amenities are a short drive to the village of Shorwell including a popular country pub with its freshwater stream, and a recreation ground with a playground. A pretty twelfth-century St. Peter's Church and the historic Northcourt House and Wolverton Manor are also located in the village and offer a host of summer activities and events, including summer fetes and family friendly festivals. Additionally, Rowborough House is conveniently situated for the village of Carisbrooke with its magnificent castle and the county town of Newport which is just under five miles away providing a range of popular shops, restaurants and a cinema. The property is linked to other parts of the Island by Southern Vectis bus route 12, serving Freshwater, Totland and Newport as well as intermediate villages and the bus stop is conveniently located directly outside the property.</p><br/>EPC Rating: F
