St Kieran's, 27 Calbourne Road, Carisbrooke, PO30 5AP

A period home set within circa 3.25 acres of gardens, woodland and meadow, enjoying breathtaking panoramic views and located conveniently close to the amenities of Carisbrooke.

Constructed in 1924, St Kieran’s is a home of enduring character and quiet grandeur, set within an exceptional plot of approximately 3.25 acres.

Elevated within its grounds, the property enjoys far-reaching views across the Island and beyond, with glimpses stretching towards the Solent.

The house retains a wealth of original detailing, from its beautifully crafted stained glass entrance door to deep skirting boards, beautiful timber floors and generous proportions throughout.

While already a comfortable and well-loved home, there is potential for further enhancement or extension, subject to the necessary permissions.
