Property description

This double-fronted Victorian home offers substantial

living space for a growing family on both floors.

The impressive entrance hall, with original-style wooden panelled double-doors to the front, boasts original Victorian-style tiling which was uncovered by the current owners. From the grand entrance hall, still retaining its ornate coved archway, you have a choice of reception rooms, the largest of which being the main lounge and sitting areas. Originally this was two rooms, so this vast space now offers triple-aspect windows and occupies one side of the ground floor of the original main building.

Alongside its original-style coving and ceiling rose, there is also a fireplace with decorative mantle and surround. To the opposite wing of the property, there are two more reception rooms, one currently used as a children’s playroom and the other providing a room for formal dining. At the rear of the home are the kitchen and breakfast areas, which have been fitted with bi-folding doors leading out to a decked area in the rear garden.

Beyond this, the utility room also gives access again to the rear garden as well as into a ground floor cloakroom. To the first floor of the property, there are five double bedrooms, with both bedroom 1 and bedroom 3 having en-suite facilities. The family bathroom has also been tastefully fitted with a freestanding modern contemporary bath and a double shower cubicle.

Throughout the home there is both double-glazed windows and gas heating via radiators. The garden has been laid to lawn, but also offers side access and is enclosed by fencing at the rear. The frontage has been gravelled to provide ample parking for all the family, as it stretches the full width of the plot.

If a family home with access to local schools and being within easy reach of the island’s main shopping town of Newport is what you have been searching for, this property really could offer everything you need.

What the Owner says:

When we first walked into the home, we fell in love with it immediately. We loved the size and the period features which have been sympathetically retained with the addition of modern comforts that we take for granted (multiple bathrooms, central heating, double glazing etc). To us it has been the perfect family home in which to raise our four young children, indeed were it not for work commitments meaning that we need to move to the mainland, we certainly would have stayed for the foreseeable future. It's an ideal house for living in but also for entertaining, either in one of the reception rooms or, weather permitting, in the garden taking in the afternoon and early evening sunshine and we frequently have family and friends over to stay since there is plenty of sleeping space available too.

One of the real bonuses for us is that we are so close to Newport (a short walk away) and other local amenities (the local schools, Doctors, parks and convenience stores are all just a few minutes’ walk) and yet on a quiet road that is literally moments from a countryside walk around the Castle or a short drive in most directions to the Island's fabulous beaches. We also have the benefit of having plenty of space at the front of the house for parking and an enclosed garden that has plenty of grass for the children to play on, with the added bonus for the adults of being quite low maintenance, and different areas for us to sit, relax and enjoy.
