Description
Offering over 4,500 sq. ft. of accommodation, mature gardens and a substantial outbuilding. Steeped in history, Crown House is one of Newport's finest period homes. Dating from the late 16th and 17th centuries, this exceptional Grade II* listed property is renowned for its striking pargetted façade, featuring floral garlands, a crown motif and the date 1692 above the entrance.
Behind its attractive frontage lies more than 4,500 sq. ft of characterful accommodation arranged over three floors. Original features abound, including exposed timber beams, wide plank flooring, leaded casement windows, historic panelling and numerous fireplaces.
The ground floor offers a range of elegant and versatile reception rooms, including a drawing room, dining room, family room and study, providing excellent space for both formal entertaining and everyday family life. The kitchen is centred around an AGA and is complemented by a pantry, utility room and separate laundry room.
