For Sale3 Bedroom Detached House in Rookley, Isle of Wight, PO38£525,000

Tucked away in a peaceful, semi-rural setting, this beautifully presented three-bedroom detached home offers the perfect blend of countryside tranquillity and modern living. Enjoying far-reaching views across the stunning surrounding landscape, the property sits privately off a quiet lane in the desirable village of Rookley, just moments from local amenities and excellent transport links. Set on a generous plot, the property immediately impresses with a spacious frontage offering ample parking for three to four vehicles, as well as a garage with an electric up-and-over door. The south-west facing wraparound garden envelopes the home on three sides, creating a serene and private outdoor retreat. Exceptionally well enclosed and bathed in sunlight throughout the day, the garden provides the ideal space for al fresco dining, entertaining, or simply enjoying the peaceful rural atmosphere. Stepping inside through a welcoming front porch, you are greeted by a bright and spacious interior that offers flexibility and comfort for family living. The ground floor boasts a generously sized lounge, perfect for relaxing or hosting guests, and a large, well-appointed kitchen / diner that overlooks the garden. A garden room to the rear of the lounge provides an additional living area and an ideal spot to soak in the garden views all year round. A handy utility room and modern downstairs shower room add further practicality to this versatile layout. Upstairs, the home continues to impress with a large principal bedroom that benefits from its own dressing area—formerly the fourth bedroom and easily convertible back if desired. Two further well-proportioned double bedrooms offer ample space for family, guests, or home office use. A family bathroom completes the upper floor, with all bedrooms enjoying picturesque views over the surrounding countryside. A particularly exciting feature of this home is the approved planning permission (Isle of Wight Council ref: 24/00139/HOU) for a substantial rear extension. This development would replace the current garden room with an expansive open-plan living and kitchen space—further enhancing the property's size and functionality. While the setting feels delightfully rural and private, the location is anything but remote. Just a short walk from the property, the village of Rookley offers convenient amenities including a supermarket and bus routes with regular services to Newport and Shanklin. Nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts will also appreciate the many country walks and scenic trails on the doorstep. Offering the perfect combination of peace, privacy, space, and potential, this charming home is a rare find in today’s market. Whether you’re seeking a permanent family residence, a quiet retreat, or a property with scope for future enhancement, this versatile home ticks all the boxes. Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the lifestyle and opportunity on offer.
