Extensively renovated and set within an aonb, Marvel Lodge is situated in an enviable location with spectacular rural views, and offers a unique, characterful home upgraded for a modern lifestyle.
Surrounded by meandering country lanes and rolling green landscapes, Marvel Lodge is perfect for those seeking an idyllic rural lifestyle whilst offering all the amenities of Newport close by. Dating back to 1870, this striking redbrick Victorian property with its distinctive turret structure was constructed by a local boulder who took inspiration from the iconic National Trust Red House building in Bexleyheath, designed by William Morris. Today, the property has been completely transformed by the current owner who has sympathetically retained the charming historical character whilst providing a modern family home with elegant, high-quality finishes and modern amenities such as a contemporary kitchen with integrated appliances and underfloor heating, a spacious family shower room, a separate utility room providing a ground floor toilet, and an electric central heating system.
Boasting high ceilings throughout, the accommodation comprises a traditional entrance hall leading to two dual aspect reception rooms, and a modern kitchen - each of these rooms feature attractive working fireplaces. The ground floor also provides a utility room and a staircase ascending to the first floor where there is a landing featuring charming porthole windows. Forming the first floor are three spacious double-sized bedrooms and a generous shower room.
Outside, Marvel Lodge occupies approximately one third of an acre which incorporates immaculate wrap-around lawned gardens which are open to the spectacular countryside views over the Medina Valley. A gravel driveway provides a smart approach to the property and ample parking for multiple vehicles.
Overlooking rolling rural landscapes on the outskirts of Newport, this tranquil location is abundant with local wildlife, and boasts magnificent views stretching over fields, equestrian paddocks and woodland. The property is well-connected to a network of footpaths and bridleways, and plenty of amenities of nearby Newport are also conveniently close by. Being located at the heart of the Island means that the superb coastline is never too far away, and additionally, mainland transport links are within easy reach with regular car ferry services from Fishbourne to Portsmouth and East Cowes to Southampton located under a 30-minute drive away from the property.
