This charming period property has been beautifully presented by the current owners of over three years who have perfectly retained the property‘s 1930s appeal. A high standard of improvements both complement and enhance the characterful features which include a combination of restored and new flooring, a refurbished wooden staircase, elegant chandelier light fittings, tasteful wall decoration, and a refurbished fireplace in the lounge which features a cast-iron multi-fuel stove as well as a rebuilt chimney. With new wall ties completed just a few years ago, the property also features a ‘Worcester’ gas-combination boiler installed in 2017 and stylish new light switches with coordinating sockets which provide elegant finishing touches. Additionally, the property benefits from approved planning permission for a single-storey extension to the rear which would provide a sizeable addition to the kitchen and a downstairs wet room. Outside, there is a secluded front garden and a block-paved driveway providing off-road parking for up to two vehicles. A garden to the rear has a spacious lawn area and paved seating areas providing a delightful, fully-enclosed space for family and pets to enjoy.
Built circa 1936, this beautiful family home enjoys a quiet residential location close to the extensive Victoria Recreation Ground which forms an integral part of outdoor life featuring a cricket pitch and a sports hall. Despite enjoying a peaceful position, 3 Sunningdale Road is perfectly placed to enjoy a short 10-minute walk into the high street which offers a wide range of shops and supermarkets, restaurants and cafes, a cinema, and the Southern Vectis bus station which provides an extensive network of bus routes across the island. Some of the island‘s top family attractions and events are nearby including the magnificent Carisbrooke Castle, the popular Robin Hill Country Park and the iconic Isle of Wight Festival. Being centrally located means you are never far from all the spectacular beaches and rugged countryside that the island has to offer, including the beautiful West Wight. Regular car ferry travel links from Fishbourne to Portsmouth and East Cowes to Southampton are both within a 20- minute drive from the property and the Cowes to Southampton catamaran service is located only 6 miles away.
The spacious accommodation consists of a generous entrance hall which leads to a spacious lounge-diner and a stylish kitchen complete with a large utility room and downstairs cloakroom. A turning staircase flows to the first floor which consists of four bedrooms, a family bathroom and a separate cloakroom. An additional staircase from the first-floor landing leads to an attic room which provides a useful addition for a growing family.
