<p>Tucked away at the end of a no-through road and occupying a plot far larger than first impressions suggest, 14 Johnson Road is a striking and beautifully upgraded three-bedroom end-of-terrace home with a superb lifestyle offering. Extensively renovated, updated and extended by the current owners, the property pairs a soft, neutral interior scheme with stylish contemporary finishes, creating a home that feels calm, polished and highly practical. The kitchen/diner forms a sociable centrepiece, while the sitting room provides a warm retreat with a woodburning stove and French doors to the garden. A single-storey extension adds valuable flexibility, incorporating a utility room, shower room and a superb work-from-home space, currently arranged as a salon. The extension was designed to be used as a self contained annexe if required, featuring an electric cooker point and a separate electric box. Outside, landscaped gardens, a long sundeck, excellent garaging, gymnasium, workshop and woodstore make this a surprisingly generous home.</p><p>Johnson Road is conveniently positioned on the outskirts of Newport, close to the open green fields of Dodnor and within easy reach of the town centre. Newport offers a broad choice of shops, cafés, restaurants, leisure facilities, cinema and the Island’s central bus station, providing excellent onward connections across the Isle of Wight. From the property, nearby footpaths and bridleways open up a lovely variety of rural and riverside walks, giving this central location a welcome sense of countryside escape. Its position also works particularly well for access to major Island employers and for travelling across the Island, with Fishbourne to Portsmouth and East Cowes to Southampton car ferry links both within approximately a 20-minute drive, and the Cowes to Southampton passenger service around five miles away. Beaches, woodland, sailing towns and the dramatic landscapes of the West Wight are all comfortably accessible.</p><p><strong>The Approach</strong></p><p>Set beyond a five-bar gate at the end of Johnson Road, the approach immediately reveals the scale and individuality of this home. A broad driveway opens across the front of the property and towards the detached garaging, with smart blue cladding, neat planting and open field views creating a much more spacious and private arrival than expected.</p><p><strong>Ground Floor</strong></p><p>The ground floor is arranged with a strong sense of flow and has been designed for modern everyday living. A porch opens into the generous kitchen/diner, a beautifully finished space with sleek grey cabinetry, warm solid oak worktops, integrated appliances, a breakfast bar and statement detailing including quarried slate splashbacks and vertical feature panelling. There is plenty of room for dining, making this a sociable space for family life and entertaining, with direct access towards the rear garden.</p><p>The sitting room sits alongside and offers a more relaxed, comfortable setting, centred around a woodburning stove set within a characterful chimney breast. French doors open directly to the pergola and terrace, allowing the room to connect beautifully with the garden in warmer months, while the stove gives it a cosy focal point for evenings and winter days.</p><p>The extension adds excellent practicality and flexibility. A smart utility room provides additional worktop space, storage and laundry provision, keeping the kitchen/diner uncluttered. Alongside this is a ground floor shower room and a separate salon/study, currently arranged as a professional-style salon but equally suited to home working, hobbies, a treatment room or a quiet creative space.</p><p><strong>First Floor</strong></p><p>The first floor provides three bedrooms and a modern family bathroom, arranged from a central landing. The principal bedroom is a well-presented double with a calm neutral scheme, glossy fitted wardrobes and a polished wood floor, creating an elegant and restful feel. Bedroom two is another comfortable double, while the third bedroom offers a useful nursery, child’s room or study option.</p><p>The bathroom has been finished in a contemporary style with grey tiling, a bath with shower over, a basin, WC and chrome heated towel rail, giving the upper floor a smart and practical finish.</p>
