Tucked away down a quiet side street in the island's principal town
of Newport, lies this exquisite, five bedroom, Georgian town house.
Steeped in history, this stunning character property, has been
painstakingly restored and maintained in recent years to very high
standard.
Originally built in the 1700's, this superb character property
is arranged over three floors and simply oozes charm and style
throughout, with original, exposed beams, original fireplaces and
portholes providing just some of the features in this remarkable
home. The front door is characteristic of the era, being slightly
recessed and framed by gorgeous, ornate mouldings and gable roof.
Enter into a spacious, central hallway, with original, wooden
floorboards which runs directly to the rear door, with all rooms
and stairwells branching off from.
At the front of the property is a good sized lounge with an
original, corner fireplace, more gorgeous wooden flooring and
exposed beams. Across the hallway is the lovely dining room, that
has an impressive, exposed brick chimney housing a gas burning
stove and a delightful altar rail adding yet more character to this
home. The kitchen at the rear of the property is an ideal blend of
functionality and style and is large enough to feasibly work as a
kitchen diner if required. There's also a handy cloakroom on the
ground floor. On the first floor the period features continue
throughout the three, good sized double bedrooms here, with ornate
fireplaces, sash windows and built in storage spaces. There's a
large, family bathroom, tastefully designed in a style that
compliments the period, as well as a separate shower room. On the
second floor are a further two double rooms, and a further room
that has the potential to adapt to a bathroom should it be
required. The first floor bedrooms and stairs throughout benefit
from new carpets and curtains in the last year.
Outside to the rear is a delightful, low maintenance garden
that's mostly paved, with various plants and shrubs and beautifully
bordered with an exposed brick wall. There's a lovely spot for
dining alfresco as well as a brick-built garden room, ideal for
enjoying the pretty garden in all weather or it could make a home
office. To the front of the property is allocated residential
permit parking for two vehicles.
What the Owner says:
This is a lovely, friendly street, where we have enjoyed all of the
advantages of proximity to a town, whilst living in a very quiet,
peaceful area. Within feet of the Quay arts centre, where there is
a wonderful café and a wide selection of performing arts to enjoy.
Newport is the Isle of Wight's principal town and meets all our
shopping needs with a good choice of both chain stores combined
with smaller, independent shops. There's a wide selection of pubs,
cafes and restaurants to suit every budget and occasion and a
Cineworld cinema just a five minutes walk away.
Having the bus station in the centre of town is a real asset and
means we can travel to virtually anywhere we want on the island
with ease.
