House For Sale £190,000
Perfectly positioned to enjoy the many amenities of Newport, this charming two-bedroom terraced cottage is beautifully presented throughout and comes complete with a delightful courtyard garden.
Presented to a very high standard, this wonderful period cottage was refurbished in 2013 and has since been lovingly cared for and well-maintained by the current owner of thirty-three years. With sophisticated interiors complementing the charm of the cottage, a high standard of finishes can be admired throughout from its cosy carpets and elegant wall decor, to its cottage-style kitchen and a beautifully presented bathroom. With each of the two bedrooms providing a double size, the property also benefits from gas central heating, double glazing, and an enclosed entrance porch to ensure a cosy, welcoming home. Outside boasts a fully enclosed courtyard garden to the rear providing a private and secluded outdoor sanctuary.
Quietly tucked away on Cross Street, the property is just a few minutes walk away from the town centre of Newport which offers a wide range of shops and supermarkets, a cinema, restaurants and cafes, and the Southern Vectis bus station providing an extensive network of bus routes across the island. A twenty-minute walk in the opposite direction is the historic village of Carisbrooke with its famous castle, and plenty of village amenities including a convenience store, health centre and pharmacy, popular restaurants and family-friendly pubs. Some of the island's top family attractions are located in Newport including the multi-award-winning Monkey Haven and the popular Robin Hill Country Park. Being centrally located means mainland travel links via Cowes and Fishbourne are easily accessible and you are never far from all the wonderful delights that the island has to offer, including the beautiful West Wight with its unspoilt beaches and rugged coastline.
The accommodation is perfectly arranged and comprises an entrance porch opening to a spacious lounge which continues to the charming kitchen-breakfast room at the rear of the property. Located on the first floor there is a beautiful bathroom and two double bedrooms.
Welcome To 24 Cross Street
This appealing terraced cottage provides a delightful first impression with its grey-painted brickwork, charming Georgian-style double glazed windows and a slate-tiled roof. A smart white upvc front door with a central glazed panel opens to an entrance porch.
Porch
Creating a perfect fully enclosed divide from the lounge, this convenient area provides space to remove coats and footwear before entering the living space. With an internal obscure glazed panel to one side, the porch has wooden strip wall panelling painted in a neutral shade and a cosy carpet in a speckled-taupe shade which continues throughout the majority of the accommodation. A two-pane glazed panelled door in white opens to the lounge.
Lounge (5.89m x 3.51m max (19'04 x 11'06 max))
Upon entering this inviting room you are greeted by elegant interiors that set the stylish tone of the property with its warm, neutral colour palette on the walls complemented by a pretty feature wall in a subtle shade of champagne with a floral design. Creating a characterful focal point, the room enjoys a handsome fireplace fitted with a coal-effect gas fire which is mounted upon a solid stone hearth with a dark wood surround. The fireplace also houses a recently serviced back boiler providing a gas central heating system for the home. Offering ample storage space, the room benefits from an under stair cupboard and a built-in dark timber storage bench alongside a coordinating cabinet which houses the gas and electric meters as well as an electrical consumer unit. Two half-sphere wall lights plus two ceiling light fixtures illuminate the room, and a double glazed tilt and turn window to the front elevation allows for natural light. Fitted with a radiator, the room also includes a telephone/internet point, a central heating thermostat control and a carpeted staircase to the first floor.
Kitchen - Breakfast Room (3.35m x 3.18m (11'0 x 10'05))
Continuing to the charming cottage-style kitchen, there is a range of fitted base and wall cabinets in a classic cream shade with elegant handles and a wood-style countertop which incorporates a stainless steel sink and drainer with a long neck chrome mixer tap. With a green and cream tile splashback, the countertop provides space and plumbing beneath for a washing machine, whilst the remainder of the room offers plenty of space to position further freestanding appliances or even fit additional cabinets if required. An integrated electric oven complete with a gas hob has a stainless steel cooker hood over providing an extractor fan and lighting. The units include a good range of drawers and cupboards as well as a built-in bottle rack, and there is the added bonus of space to accommodate a breakfast dining set within the room. Illuminated by a modern ceiling spotlight bar, this room enjoys a window to the rear aspect alongside a upvc glazed door to the courtyard, and the space is beautifully finished with a laminate stone-effect floor and sage-green painted walls.
First Floor Landing
Providing stylish continuity, the cosy carpet from the lounge continues to the first-floor accommodation via a staircase which has a white wooden panel bannister and a matching handrail on the adjacent wall. Featuring smart white panel doors, the landing has a ceiling light fixture and provides access to a partially boarded loft space. There is also a handy airing cupboard that houses a hot water cylinder and is fitted with wooden shelving. Edged with a white-painted panel balustrade, the landing creates access to two bedrooms and a bathroom.
Bedroom One (3.51m x 3.28m (11'06 x 10'09))
A fresh, subtle green colour palette on the walls and the neutral carpet come together to create an airy, comfortable feel in this beautifully finished bedroom.

Additionally, the room also benefits from plenty of built-in storage comprising a large recessed cupboard and a deep-set wardrobe with sliding doors in white.
Bedroom Two (3.38m max x 3.18m max (11'01 max x 10'05 max))

Accessed via a upvc glazed door from the kitchen with the added benefit of external access via a full-height timber gate, 24 Cross Street enjoys a private, partially paved courtyard providing a low-maintenance outdoor space which can easily be personalised with planters and ornaments. Fully enclosed with timber fencing and red brick wall boundaries, this secluded garden provides space to arrange outdoor seating or a bistro set, and features charming plant borders with a range of shrubs and plants including cordylines, fuchsias and a mature holly tree. Additionally, this lovely courtyard also benefits from a recently installed timber storage shed.
