360 virtual tour - An elegant, substantial Victorian gentleman's residence built in 1892 offering six bedroom accommodation in outstanding grounds, a short drive from the M4 and within walking distance of the city centre train station.
17 Stow Park Circle is a substantial red brick gentleman's residence, two-storey with mullioned and transom windows and attic windows in the pantile roof. Along the south elevation is a single-storey enclosed veranda, with a sloping pantile roof. On the west side is a former conservatory, now a garage, with a central lantern and terrazzo floor. The grand entrance off Stow Park Circle through wrought iron gates has a wide circular gravelled drive enclosing a most impressive front east facing elevation. The elegant reception rooms each have their own aspect. An east facing sitting room has a wide splay bay for morning light. The south facing dining room has a bay opening into the enclosed veranda overlooking the formal gardens. The hexagonal shaped music room has a highly decorated vaulted ceiling and broad square bay with windows facing south and west. The former butlers pantry has been converted into study and the kitchen has a large adjoining utility/preparation room. There is a galleried landing on first and second floors, a second staircase, seven bedrooms on two floors, a large attic and three bath/shower rooms. The original features have been retained with subtle improvements including secondary glazing, to present a most elegant family residence. The gardens have been creatively planted and maintained to a very high standard. A broad lawn, the length of the south facing elevation, has mature and varied herbaceous borders. The former tennis court is now a kitchen garden bordered by lawns, a greenhouse and potting sheds screened by a privet hedge. From the circular sweeping drive a step leads up to a canopied open porch with decorative plastered pillars set on brick piers.
The property occupies a prominent yet secluded position within the Stow Park Conservation Area, a highly favoured location on the west side of Newport. Stow Park was developed in the late 19th Century as a wealthy residential area of high quality houses with spacious grounds.
Communications are excellent with the M4 within 2 miles. Cardiff, Newport and Bristol are readily accessible by road and rail. The British Rail mainline station at Newport is within walking distance and provides a regular train service to London Paddington in little over 1 hr 30 mins and westbound to Cardiff and Swansea. Both Cardiff and Bristol airports offer a wide range of domestic, charter and international flights. Newport is considered the gateway to South Wales noted for its fine civic centre, international hotel and golf course at Celtic Manor, which hosted the 2010 Ryder Cup. Newport 2020: Unlimited vision is a master plan creating a more sustainable City which will become a model waterfront community.
