Although not far from the centre of Newport this delightful detached four-bedroom house is set amid approximately one and a half acres of grounds including a large paddock surrounded by countryside and is opposite the renowned Robin Hill Country Park. The property is ideal for a horse loving family or anyone wanting to enjoy ‘the good life’ but it is also near a bus stop and easily accessible to the local towns. The charming house has delightful kerb appeal with a local stone exterior, pitched roof and leaded light style dormer windows. It was built in the 1980s and replaced an old cottage that was originally owned by the Forestry Commission.

 

The house is set back from the road and approached via a private drive, flanked by lawns and shrub borders. This leads to a detached pitched roof garage and a wide gravel frontage where you can park numerous vehicles. The charming front door opens into a welcoming hall with an impressive staircase and a pair of doors with glass insets that leads to the very large dual aspect kitchen/dining room that also provides plenty of space for a large table and chairs.

 

It has a walk-in larder and contemporary units that house a gas hob, double oven and dishwasher while the fridge and freezer are in the spacious adjacent utility room. Here you will also find a cloakroom and direct access to the more recently added conservatory where you can enjoy sitting and watching the local wildlife. There is a modern wet room and a separate Jack and Jill cloakroom that also opens into a large dual aspect double bedroom with a built-in cupboard that is ideal for family members and guests who find the stairs difficult. While the second ground floor bedroom could also make an excellent office or playroom, if required.

 

The impressive first floor galleried landing leads to the lovely, triple aspect lounge that offers a stunning panoramic vista across the surrounding countryside and parkland. It includes a coved ceiling and a charming wood surround fireplace as a focal point. Also on this floor is a family bathroom and a very large double as well as a smaller double bedroom that both have fitted cupboards and lovely views.

 

Outside the stable block consists of a good sized stable, a tack room and a feed store as well as plenty of hard standing for a horse box and a gate to the large paddock. There is a substantial vegetable garden that includes a wide variety of vegetables including asparagus.
