5 Bedroom House With Land For Sale In Brighstone

An impressive Grade II Listed, detached residence built from handsome local stone, this remarkable home blends historic character with refined modern comfort, creating a rare opportunity in one of the Isle of Wight’s most breathtaking settings. Elevated to capture sweeping, uninterrupted panoramas, the property commands views stretching from Tennyson Down and Freshwater Bay to the west, across Limerstone Down behind, and toward Stenbury Down and Blackgang to the South. Its position within both an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the Heritage Coastline ensures a sense of tranquility, natural drama and enduring protection of the surrounding landscape.

Tucked away from main roads yet moments from the charming villages of Brighstone and Shorwell, the home enjoys convenient access to local shops, traditional pubs, a doctor’s surgery, and a well regarded primary school. The nearby south‑western coastline offers some of the Island’s most picturesque beaches, while miles of footpaths and bridleways make this an exceptional location for walking and riding.

Approached through an electrically operated five‑bar gate, a sweeping gravel drive leads to extensive parking and a substantial brick‑built double garage. The mature gardens surrounding the house are beautifully arranged with lawns, established trees and colourful borders. To the west, a generous paved terrace offers a magnificent vantage point for sunsets over Freshwater Bay and the rolling Downs. All set within 5.8 acres, there is also a substantial post and rail paddock complete with stables, power, water and a field shelter, ideal for equestrian use.

Inside, the home is equally impressive. The entrance hall leads to a spacious, south‑facing sitting room anchored by an elegant period brick fireplace. The kitchen–breakfast room, fitted with Farrow and Ball grey cabinetry, quality countertops and integrated appliances forms the warm heart of the home. A bright living room with triple aspect windows flows into the superb garden room, an all‑season retreat with tiled flooring and panoramic views of the grounds.

A dual‑aspect lobby connects directly to the driveway and opens into a substantial boot room, ideal for country living. Tiled flooring extends from here, through to a well‑equipped utility room and a ground‑floor cloakroom complete the practical amenities.

The first-floor hosts three generous double bedrooms, all with ample built in storage. The principal bedroom is a standout feature, triple aspect, filled with light and offering mesmerising views across the countryside to the English Channel. It has its own spacious ensuite bathroom with both bath and separate shower. Two additional bathrooms serve the remaining bedrooms, including the two large doubles on the second floor. Bedroom five also benefits from access to a sizeable attic storage area.

This is a home of rare quality, rich in heritage, beautifully modernised, and set within one of the Island’s most captivating landscapes.
