The Accommodation
In detail the property comprises a pair of grand timber doors with a fanlight above leading into the entrance hall, with staircases to both the first floor and lower ground floor, with an elegant half-landing window allowing for soft natural light. The first reception room is an inviting space, complete with fitted cupboards and shelving, with a charming aspect over Newport’s historic High Street. The heart of the home is the kitchen/dining room—a light-filled, versatile space boasting windows to three sides. The kitchen is fitted with bespoke handmade cabinetry, complemented by granite worktops, a twin-bowl ceramic butler sink, and space for a range cooker. The dining area, with its open fireplace and wooden flooring, is perfectly suited for family gatherings and entertaining. A second reception room features a charming fireplace with an inset stove and a stone hearth. A door leads to the rear porch, providing easy access to the garden, while a further door opens into the garden room. This beautifully light and airy space enjoys views over the terraced garden, with elegant three-quarter-height windows and a pair of doors opening onto the outdoor space.
The first-floor landing enjoys natural light from a side-aspect window and provides access to the loft space and adjoining rooms. The principal bedroom is generously proportioned featuring a wide front-aspect window with charming views over the High Street and built-in wardrobes. A door leads to the ensuite, which has been beautifully refitted with a freestanding roll-top bath, large shower enclosure, a vanity wash basin, WC, and a vanity unit with a marble top. Dual rear-aspect windows provide additional light, and a secondary door allows access back to the landing. Bedroom two is a characterful room with a side-aspect window and a striking Victorian fireplace with a wrought iron inset, carved mantle, and surround. This bedroom also benefits from its own en suite, featuring a large shower enclosure, W.C and a vanity wash basin. The third and fourth bedrooms are both well-proportioned, with bedroom three enjoying a front aspect overlooking the High Street, while bedroom four benefits from a side-aspect window.
The lower ground floor is a highly versatile area offering a multitude of uses, including a self-contained annexe, home office, or games area. The hallway features a substantial built-in storage room, currently used as a wine cellar, with open-plan access to the kitchen/utility room. Fitted with an extensive range of base and eye-level units, complemented by generous worktop space, a twin-bowl sink, space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, and an integrated fridge. A window provides natural light, while a door offers direct access to the garden and terrace. The fifth bedroom has an obscure high-level window to the front aspect and a side-aspect window with shutters—formerly used as the beer barrel opening when the property functioned as a public house. A shower room incorporates a shower enclosure, WC and wash hand basin. A further door provides access to a storage/boiler room, which houses a recently upgraded Worcester gas-fired boiler and a pressurized hot water system. Completing this floor is a generously sized games room, a flexible space with an obscure glazed high-level window, currently home to an American-style pool table.
Outside
There is a driveway to the side of the property providing off-street parking and access to the garage, with up and over door and power and lighting connected. To the rear of the property is a large paved terrace which is ideal for al fresco entertaining with the garden being mainly laid to lawn with mature shrubs and planting which affords a good degree of privacy. At the bottom of the garden is a useful timber shed.
