Set in the heart of Newport, this Grade II listed cottage blends 18th-century character with a high-standard contemporary refurbishment. The ground floor offers a bright, open-plan sitting/dining room with exposed brickwork, stove and arched windows, while the stunning kitchen/breakfast room features marble worktops, an island and integrated appliances — designed for everyday family life and entertaining.
Arranged over two storeys, the property provides three bedrooms and a single family bathroom. Natural light and period details run throughout; built-in wardrobes add practical storage. Outside there is a south-facing private garden with stone terrace and lawn, plus a covered off-street parking space accessed from a shared gravel driveway.
Location is a strong selling point: the village centre setting places shops, inns, primary school and Newport station within easy walking distance, with Saffron Walden and Bishop’s Stortford a short drive away. Fast broadband and a very affluent area profile make the house suitable for commuters and families seeking village life with good transport links.
Important practical notes: the building’s Grade II listed status brings planning constraints and will complicate future alterations and some repairs. The house has one bathroom and a compact overall footprint, so prospective buyers should consider space needs. The property is freehold and newly renovated, offering a largely move-in-ready period home for those comfortable with listed-building ownership.
