Woodford Cottage
The property benefits from an idyllic position surrounded by fields and with accommodation designed to make the most of the panoramic vista. Accessed via a shared unmade road, this particularly quiet environment well away from roads, is surrounded by nature whilst also having easy access to the local amenities of Wootton Bridge, (also accessible by the adjacent bridleway). It is only a 10-minute walk to the nearest bus stop with frequent service to Newport to Ryde. There is direct access to great country walks and bike rides, and with unspoilt countryside including ancient meadows and woodland in the surrounding area including Woodhouse Copse. The majestic steam railway runs across fields just to the east. Wootton Bridge has a range of local shops, pubs, a restaurant, takeaways and the Lakeside Spa as well as mooring facilities on Wootton Creek. In adjacent Fishbourne, there is the Royal Victoria Yacht Club as well as the car ferry service to Portsmouth.
The house itself provides light accommodation with an open-plan kitchen/dining room with seating area on the ground floor and a spacious first floor sitting room with excellent views and an adjacent roof terrace. The versatile accommodation includes up to 5 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms and a study. The attractive grounds extend to around 0.65 acre including a mature rear garden with a lovely summer house designed for overflow accommodation as well as a small paddock with orchard and a good workshop/ store. This gives a great opportunity to live the ‘good life’, the current owners have used this versatile space for grazing of horses and sheep with an area fenced off for chickens, which with raised beds offer a keen gardener the opportunity to stock the pantry with fresh vegetables and fruit. They have enjoyed hosting camping weekends, a wedding and parties with ample space for marquees etc..
