This three-bedroom mid-terrace offers a practical family layout close to central Newport, shops and transport links. The principal reception room is large and bright, and the property includes a low-maintenance enclosed rear garden and a fully boarded attic with a heater — useful storage or occasional sleeping space.
The house dates from the early 20th century and has many original solid-brick elements. The compact galley kitchen and wet-room style bathroom are functional but dated; the property will benefit from modernization throughout, including insulation and energy-efficiency improvements (solid walls assumed uninsulated). Recent internal alterations include an installed RSJ, but the owner does not hold building-regulation paperwork.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, mains gas boiler and radiators, double glazing, on-street parking and a low Council Tax Band B. Local services are within walking distance, and broadband and mobile signals are reported good — useful for commuters and home working.
Buyers should allow budget for upgrades. The area has high crime levels and is classified as very deprived, which may affect resale and rental values. This property suits buyers seeking an affordable, well-located home to renovate, or an investor prepared to manage refurbishment and local letting considerations.
