This charming converted barn on the Isle of Wight has a rich history dating back to the Napoleonic Wars, when it was used as an officer's mess kitchen. The property has been in the same family for over 80 years and retains many of its original period features, including Art Deco fireplaces, quarry tiles, and parquet flooring. The property is set in stunning grounds of approximately 0.4 acres, overlooking Colwell Common and just a five-minute walk from Colwell Bay. The interior features a spacious entrance hall, a ground floor cloakroom, stairs to the first floor, and a door to the dual-aspect lounge. The kitchen has colorful green units and terracotta tiled flooring, while the dining room has views over the garden and a brick surround fireplace. Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms, including the dual-aspect main bedroom with a box bay window and a stunning cast iron fireplace. The property also has a family bathroom, a separate toilet, and a delightful rear courtyard and garden area, as well as a sunny rear terrace and a formal garden. The owners are looking for new owners who can create their own dream home and appreciate the property's unique character and peaceful location.
