Pool Road, Newtown, Powys, SY16

Set in a peaceful position on the edge of Newtown, this attractive four-bedroom semi-detached house offers a rare combination of character, generous accommodation and a substantial plot, while remaining conveniently placed for the town. Dating from circa 1800, the property has been sympathetically extended over the years, including a later two-storey extension, creating a versatile and comfortable family home. The property also benefits from solar panels with a battery storage system, which feeds into the electricity supply and provides an energy-efficient addition to the home.

The accommodation is approached through an entrance porch and opens into a well-planned ground floor. The kitchen/dining room provides a sociable heart to the home, fitted with a good range of base and wall units, worktops, inset sink and tiled splashbacks, together with space for a cooker, washing machine and dishwasher. Windows to the front and rear bring plenty of natural light into the room. Adjacent is a useful study/utility room, offering built-in storage and a practical area for home working or household use, with a separate cloakroom completing the ground floor.

From here, the accommodation flows naturally into the impressive open-plan living/dining room, a particularly characterful space centred around a log burner set within a stone inglenook fireplace. Beamed detailing, a spiral staircase and generous proportions add to the room's appeal, while a walk-in bay window provides an attractive outlook towards the front. The living space extends into a conservatory, which offers further room for relaxing or entertaining and enjoys glazed doors opening out towards the gardens.

The first floor provides four bedrooms, offering excellent flexibility for family living, guests or working from home. The principal bedroom is particularly appealing, featuring a vaulted ceiling and picture window overlooking the front, while the remaining bedrooms provide comfortable and adaptable accommodation, with useful built-in storage to one. Two of the bedrooms benefit from en-suite facilities, complemented by a separate family bathroom with a P-shaped bath and shower over, WC, washbasin and heated towel rail.

Mains electricity and water. LPG central heating. Private drainage, shared with the neighbouring property ‘The Gro Guest House’ located on the neighbours land.

Outside, the property is equally impressive, occupying a plot of approximately 0.4 acres. The landscaped gardens extend around the house and include a side orchard and vegetable garden, providing plenty of space for gardening, recreation and entertaining. A detached garage, lean-to wood store and polytunnel add further practicality. The property is approached over a private driveway shared with neighbouring properties, creating a quiet and secluded approach.
