Description
A fabulous and immaculate four-bedroom property located in a sought after position, between Yarmouth & Freshwater Bay, set within a large plot which extends to approximately 4 acres.
West Afton offers a new owner an excellent opportunity to 'live the good life' in a property within a plot of significant size. The house has been exceptionally well maintained and upgraded over the years with a stunning south facing conservatory, outbuildings, large sitting room with wood burner. The house offers exceptionally bright & light accommodation from multiple, large double-glazed windows each of which delivers a stunning aspect onto the private grounds.
The property is located in a stunning position; - tucked beneath The Downs on the northern side. It sits close to the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is a short drive from Freshwater Bay and Yarmouth. It is a comfortable and interesting property which has been partly finished in natural stone and red brick. Located in a semi-rural position there is a bus stop very close to property and a network of excellent footpaths are immediately accessible with access to the River Yar Estuary Bridleway/Footpath.
There is a wonderful kitchen/diner which was created by the current owners by adding an extension. The kitchen is well equipped with a wide range of quality wall and base units. Adjoining the kitchen is a useful utility room/rear hall which leads through to the large double garage. The house sits perfectly within its garden and each room benefits from a stunning outlook. A large double aspect sitting room benefits from sunsets and a lovely outlook with a wood burner having been installed.
There are three good sized bedrooms on the ground floor with the main bedroom benefitting from en-suite facilities. A spiral staircase leads up to the first floor where there is a large bedroom/storage room or study. Excellent views can be seen from the first floor and there is access into large loft storage spaces.
The current owners embarked on a major planting programme on the land to the south, which was originally a paddock that abutted the main garden on the southern side. Extensive planting took place which is now a mature copse, with open clearing and paddock/rough grass areas. There are specimen trees which offers a wonderful backdrop to the house/garden and also provides excellent wind shelter. This land has a network of grass tracks, giving good access throughout. There are ponds and it is teaming with wildlife.
Outside West Afton has an enclosed garden on the northern side which is a pretty and well-kept garden with lawn and a central pond. An attractive flagstone raised terrace is located outside of the back door. There is a brick-built room on the northern side of the garden which is perfect as a study or fitness studio. On the western side of the house is a useful storage lean-to, which is currently being used for wood/logs storage.
Outbuildings On the eastern side of the plot is a semi derelict storage building, which could be refurbished and would have a good outlook into the woods and adjoining fields. There is a substantial double garage that is linked to the house.
