About this property

  • Beautifully presented detached house

  • Peaceful semi-rural setting with stunning countryside views

  • Spacious wrap around garden perfect for outdoor living and entertaining

  • Approved planning permission for a large rear extension (ref: 24/00139/hou)

  • Flexible, well-appointed layout ideal for families seeking privacy

  • Convenient village location

Nestled in the tranquil village of Rookley, this immaculately presented three-bedroom detached home combines the charm of semi-rural living with modern practicality. Enjoying expansive countryside views, the property sits privately off a quiet lane, yet remains close to essential amenities and excellent transport links—offering the best of both worlds.

Set on a generous plot, the home boasts ample parking for multiple vehicles, a garage with an electric door, and a beautifully enclosed, sun-drenched wraparound garden. Perfect for entertaining or unwinding, the outdoor space is a private sanctuary designed for all-day enjoyment.

Inside, the property offers a spacious and flexible layout ideal for family living. The ground floor features a welcoming lounge, a large kitchen / diner with garden views, a bright garden room, a utility room, and a stylish shower room.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom benefits from a dressing area—formerly a fourth bedroom—alongside two additional well-sized double bedrooms and a family bathroom. All rooms enjoy scenic views across the surrounding landscape.

A standout feature is the approved planning permission (Isle of Wight Council ref: 24/00139/hou) for a substantial rear extension, offering the exciting potential to transform the existing garden room into a stunning open-plan living and kitchen space.

Despite its peaceful setting, the property is just a short stroll from Rookley's village amenities, bus routes, and beautiful walking trails—making it ideal for families, retirees, or remote workers seeking space and serenity without sacrificing convenience.

Offering privacy, character, and room to grow, this property represents a rare and enticing opportunity in today's market. Whether you're looking for a family home, a countryside retreat, or a property with development scope, early viewing is highly recommended to truly appreciate all it has to offer.

What the Owner says:
We love this house. It's so light & bright and a peaceful haven with stunning views & sunsets across this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Lovely country walks from the door & the pub & shop are just 5/10 mins walk across the field.

We could see it had loads of potential so we got planning permission to extend (though not essential) & there's plenty of space in the garden for a gym room, pool and/or office etc.

Due to family, we need to relocate to the mainland, but wish we could take it with us. We hope someone will enjoy it as much as we have.
