Glasllwch Crescent, Newport

£325,000 - £350,000

Glasllwch Crescent is one of those roads people specifically look for when they're house hunting in the area, and this 1930s semi sits right on it. Step through the porch, and the hallway leads you straight into a living room that overlooks the front garden through a bay window. The current owners have opted for Farrow and Ball's Card Room Green on the walls, which lends the space a rich, opulent feel, complemented by the solid wood parquet flooring. There's coving around the ceiling, and a fireplace that has become a proper focal point for the room.

Past the ground floor WC with its panelled walls, you'll find the kitchen diner that's been knocked through to create one continuous space. The dark navy Shaker-style kitchen sits against the back wall, with a Belfast sink positioned so you're looking out at the garden whilst you're washing up. There's a proper range cooker and even a wine cooler tucked in. French doors open straight onto the garden, and the dining area has Skimming Stone on the walls, which works really well with the navy kitchen. There's plenty of room for a dining table and chairs, and the whole space feels like somewhere you'd want to have people round.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, each with that same Farrow and Ball approach. The front bedroom is the largest and has been painted in Brinjal, offset by light-coloured wardrobes that look built-in and give you decent storage. From here, you get views across the garden and out to the hills. The second bedroom at the rear has Slipper Satin on the walls with fitted units in Middleton Pink on either side of the chimney breast, making use of those alcoves. The third bedroom is at the front again, smaller than the other two but still a proper bedroom with those same hill views.

The driveway is long enough to get you right down to the garage at the back, and the garden itself is flat with nothing terraced or stepped. The sun hits it from late morning and stays until it sets, so you get the benefit of it for most of the day. It's one of those gardens where you'll actually end up using those French doors rather than just looking at them.

The 1930s build gives you the period features without being ancient, and someone's clearly put thought into how they've decorated and laid it out. You could move straight in, or if the colour choices aren't for you, at least the bones of it are all sorted.
