Shanklin, PO37 6LT

An exceptional executive-style detached bungalow occupying a generous plot and offering beautifully presented, highly versatile accommodation, extensive landscaped gardens, a substantial long private driveway and detached garage. The current owners have transformed the property during their ownership, undertaking an extensive programme of improvement to create a superb contemporary home. Internally, the finish is impressive throughout, with a stylish modern kitchen, beautifully appointed bathrooms, upgraded heating and tasteful décor combining to give the property a genuine turn-key feel. The accommodation is both spacious and flexible, with generous reception areas and well-proportioned bedrooms. A particularly unusual feature is the converted lower-ground level. Formerly used simply for storage, this area has been professionally tanked and transformed into a fantastic games and entertainment room, complete with mini bar and WC, together with additional storage. This versatile space could equally lend itself to a teenager’s den, home office, gym or occasional guest accommodation. Externally, the transformation is equally impressive. What was once predominantly a sloping lawn has been thoughtfully landscaped to create a series of attractive garden areas connected by broad, shallow-tread steps, designed to provide a comfortable gradient through the grounds. Beautiful planting, seating areas and an attractive water feature incorporating cascading water and ponds create a wonderfully peaceful setting in which to relax and entertain. The property itself has also been re-rendered and redecorated externally, while the large driveway provides excellent off-road parking and leads to a detached garage. A truly impressive home where considerable thought and attention have gone into every aspect of the renovation, offering the rare combination of single-storey living, extensive gardens and highly adaptable additional accommodation.
