St Pauls View Road, Newport

Perfectly positioned to enjoy the amenities of Newport, this characterful, semi-detached period cottage provides two bedrooms, two reception rooms and an enchanting, well-established rear garden.

This charming period cottage, dating from the late 1800s, has recently benefitted from an abundance of improvements, with the current owner upgrading the property in a sympathetic style which has created a fabulous blend of modern convenience while retaining all of its Victorian character. Recent updates include new electric heaters, an updated kitchen, recently fitted bathroom, and the cottage is finished with stylish neutral décor which perfectly complements the period features including original Victorian fireplaces. Accommodation comprises a welcoming entrance hall, sitting room, dining room and kitchen on the ground floor, with two good-size double-bedrooms and a family bathroom on the first-floor.

The property is just a short walk from Newport High Street which provides an array of shops and supermarkets, cafes, bars and restaurants, and a cinema. Just outside of the bustling town, a relaxing flat level walk all the way to Island Harbour can be enjoyed along the peaceful Medina Estuary which is a haven for plenty of local wildlife and plants, including wading birds such as the oystercatcher and redshank. With the Isle of Wight College located on the outskirts of Newport, there is also a good choice of schools close by at primary and secondary level. Frequent bus routes serve nearby Fairlee Road and Staplers Road, and all Island bus services connect in Newport town centre linking to other major towns of the Island and intermediate villages. Being centrally located means you're never far from all the wonderful things that the beautiful Island has to offer.
