Originally constructed in the 1920s in the Sussex Farmhouse style, Woodlands has been updated by the current owner and now strikes a perfect balance between glorious period character, modern convenience, and timeless, elegant style with neutral tones and high-quality finishes throughout. The layout has also been updated to create a flowing floorplan, with multiple configuration options to suit a new owners requirements, and the addition of a double storey extension has enabled the creation of a stunning, luxuriously large kitchen/diner and utility room. Accommodation could be arranged with up to five bedrooms depending on requirements, and the conversion of the attic room adds further options.
Kite Hill is conveniently located between Fishbourne and Wootton Bridge, and Woodlands is within walking distance of both. Fishbourne provides access to plenty of coastal and countryside footpaths and trails, and benefits from a traditional village pub and also provides a vehicle ferry service to Portsmouth. Wootton Bridge is just a short walk from the property and is one of the most convenient villages on the Island. Local facilities include a primary school, community centre, a well-maintained recreation and sports ground, as well as a health centre, pharmacist and vet. Local stores cater for food, wine and groceries, and there are some great places to eat including three pubs, a well-renowned fish and chip shop and a Mediterranean restaurant. The beautiful Wootton Creek forms part of the village which has a historic church, and there are plenty of beautiful coastal, woodland and country walks all around the area. The bustling seaside town of Ryde, with its expansive sandy beaches, eclectic mix of boutique shops and restaurants and high speed foot passenger ferry links to the mainland is just a ten-minute drive away, and regular bus routes serve Kite Hill, connecting with Ryde and Newport.
