Set close to Newport town centre, this 1930s end-terrace offers practical, flexible living across multiple floors. The ground floor has a cosy lounge, separate dining room and a compact contemporary kitchen with direct access to a surprisingly generous rear garden — a rare private green space so close to town. Two double bedrooms and a four-piece family bathroom occupy the first floor, with a large attic room above providing extra bedroom, office or storage space.
The property is ready to occupy but has clear potential for improvement and personalisation, making it a good option for first-time buyers wanting to add value. It benefits from mains gas central heating and double glazing throughout, though the glazing dates from before 2002 and the external cavity walls are assumed uninsulated — further insulation work could reduce running costs. The small plot and courtyard include a brick storage shed and a tiered lawn with pond.
Buyers should note practical concerns: the area records higher crime and the home sits in a medium flood-risk zone, so appropriate insurance and precautions are advisable. The house is freehold and council tax is inexpensive, helping monthly affordability. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support remote working or streaming.
This location is very convenient for local schools, shops, cinemas and transport links, with bus and rail connections a short walk away. For someone starting out, the house provides an affordable, spacious base with scope to modernise and increase value, or it could suit buy-to-let investors seeking central Newport accommodation.
