This substantial four-bedroom, 1930s detached home sits on a generous plot in Newport (NP20), offering nearly 1,970 sq ft of traditional living space and a large rear garden. Period features such as bay windows, brick Arts-and-Crafts exterior, chimneys and an integral garage give the house strong character, while modern essentials include mains gas central heating, double glazing and FTTP broadband.
The ground floor has multiple reception rooms and a large, well-equipped kitchen with AGA and island, plus utility and shower room with internal garage access — flexible for family life or home-working. Four double bedrooms occupy the first floor, with a family bathroom; many rooms benefit from good natural light through prominent bay windows.
Notable positives include off-street parking for several vehicles with remote gates, low local crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — helpful for commuters and those working from home. Flooding risk is documented as none.
Buyers should be aware of a few material points: the house was extended in 2004 but building-regulation/approval documents are not available; the garden and some external elements will benefit from modernization; council tax is high (Band F). The property sits in an area with mixed indicators — locally classed as affluent communities but with broader area deprivation flagged — so prospective purchasers should make local checks.
