This handsome late-Victorian semi offers more than 1,900 sq ft of flexible living across three floors, ideal for families who need space and character. High ceilings, original fireplaces and sash windows retain period charm while the kitchen/family room and landscaped walled garden create comfortable modern living. The lower-ground bedroom suite, with en suite and private courtyard access, provides useful independent space for older children, guests or a home office.
A detached vaulted-annexe with arched windows and French doors sits at the bottom of the garden and is already used successfully as an Airbnb suite — it’s equally well suited to a studio, guest suite or rental income. Off-street parking, a gated driveway and mature planting give privacy and kerb appeal. The property lies a short walk from Newport station with direct services to London and Cambridge, and nearby schools rated Good.
There are some practical considerations: the EPC is E and the solid brick walls are likely uninsulated, so improving thermal performance and energy efficiency will be needed. The property sits in a medium flood-risk area — buyers should check flood cover and local drainage. Council tax sits above average, reflecting location and size.
Overall this is a substantial period home on a decent plot that blends character, flexible living and income potential, but it will reward buyers prepared to invest in energy improvements and check flood mitigation.
