Sandy Close Blackwater, Newport, PO30 3BU

Set behind attractive larch fencing, this welcoming home immediately impresses with its neat lawned frontage, mature tree and pathway leading to a spacious porch entrance.

Oak double gates open to a hardstanding area that provides generous parking and a glimpse of the extensive garden beyond.

The porch itself is bright and practical, offering a comfortable transition into the main hallway, where soft neutral décor and wood effect flooring create a calm and inviting atmosphere.

The kitchen is a modern, light filled space overlooking the rear garden, fitted with contemporary cabinetry, integrated appliances and stylish finishes.

From here, a door leads into the expansive lounge diner, a standout feature of the home.

This impressive room enjoys a dual aspect, with a large front window and wide sliding doors opening to the rear terrace.

A charming log burner set on a raised stone hearth adds warmth and character, while the generous layout offers plenty of room for both dining and relaxation.

The property provides four bedrooms, each offering its own appeal. The main bedroom includes fitted wardrobes, a peaceful garden outlook and an en suite cloakroom.

Another bedroom features an airy vaulted ceiling with a mezzanine level and its own en suite shower room, creating a unique and versatile space.

A third bedroom opens directly onto the rear terrace, filling the room with natural light, while the fourth benefits from fitted storage and a garden view.

A well presented family bathroom completes the internal accommodation. The wrap around garden is a true highlight, offering a secluded and beautifully established outdoor haven.

With a mix of lawned areas, mature planting, raised vegetable beds, fruit trees and colourful borders, it provides a wonderful environment for gardening, wildlife and outdoor living.

A large patio terrace offers a private, secure space, while the gentle presence of the River Medina at the edge of the plot adds a serene natural backdrop.

Several outbuildings, including a greenhouse and storage areas, enhance the garden's practicality.

A charming brick built annex adds further versatility, complete with a kitchenette, living area with log burner, shower room and access to a raised deck.

What the Owner says: I have lived in the bungalow for thirty years, though many of my neighbours have lived here much longer.

Twenty years ago my large and extended family comfortably made full use of all the property has to offer.

The self-contained annex served as a teenage retreat, both separate enough for privacy and close enough for support.

The first bedroom, accessed separately from the rest of the house, became a therapeutic space for a period.

Substantial off-road parking for up to seven vehicles between the driveway and inside the double wooden gates has been invaluable for entertaining visiting children, grandchildren and celebrating special occasions.

The garden is a third of an acre. In the past I have been almost entirely self-sufficient here, growing vegetables, producing poultry and eggs, and preserving food and sauces for the winter months.

A host of wildlife and birds live in the garden and surrounding fields, including red squirrels.

We also have a family of hedgehogs who eat the slugs and snails, their presence is due in part to the fact that I have never used weed killer or chemicals on the land.

I am proud that the property has an ‘A energy certificate rating', the solar panels ensure that electricity costs are relatively low and the multifuel fires comfortably heat the rooms.

The garden backs on to uninterrupted fields which lead to Whitecroft and continue to Gatcombe. Living in Sandy Close is the best of both worlds.
