Enchanting cottage with an arched thatched roof for sale on the Isle of Wight
An enchanting circular cottage, complete with an arched thatched roof and cosy features, is now for sale in Calbourne on the Isle of Wight. Tempted?
Surrounded by around three and a half acres of woodland and lawns, Sweetwater Lodge was designed by the famous Regency architect John Nash. Originally the lodge entrance to Westover House, also designed by John Nash, the home was once owned by Colonel Mouton-Barrett – a relative of the poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning.
The cottage is perfect for cosy living. Spread across one ground floor, it boasts two bedrooms (the largest has fitted wardrobes), one bathroom, contemporary kitchen with a beam above the tiled fireplace, a light and bright lounge/diner, and 3.5 acres of grounds including a private copse, pond and stream.
Other highlights include stone walls with white brick window dressings, a brick chimneystack, five-sided casement, and amazing kerb appeal that looks like something from a fairy tale. There's also a five-sided front door with a glass inset, plus plenty of natural light streaming into the main living area.
Outside, new owners will discover tranquil lawns interspersed with shrub and hedge borders, and a delightful summerhouse with lighting, electrics, and a decked frontage.
The listing adds: "This is just the place to relax and enjoy the scenery that includes the woodland, pond and stream, which are a haven for wildlife including a variety of birds, ducks and red squirrels."
This property is currently on the market for £650,000 with Fine & Country.
