Description
Nestled within the curtilage of a Grade II listed building, The Old Stable Mews has been comprehensively refurbished and thoughtfully reimagined to create a highly distinctive home. This freehold two-bedroom, two-bathroom property blends period character with contemporary living and immediately conveys a sense of privacy and tranquillity whilst being only moments from the centre of Newport and its excellent range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, pubs and everyday amenities, including Waitrose.
Adjacent to the beautifully scenic canal-basin in the ever-popular Market town of Newport Shropshire.
This uniquely fashioned and thoroughly internally modernised ‘Old Stables’ building sits comfortably between the larger handsome, street-facing commercial building at ‘1 Lower Bar’, itself on the National Heritage List of England and the equally beautiful ‘Old Coach House’ to the rear.
Property Description - Within easy walking distance of Newport High Street, ‘The Old Stables’ is accessed through a ‘security-coded’ arched gate that opens into an attractive partially covered shared walkway, leading to a five-bar farm-style gate, behind which is a low maintenance ‘suntrap’ courtyard of blue-brick paving. This unique haven of tranquillity boasts steel framed 21-pane Crittall style heritage windows and age-old Oak beams, with the original stable-door amongst its many fabulous features.
This ‘upside down’ house, entered through a covered Swedish style wooden gazebo and hand-painted, mahogany double French-doors opens into a spacious vestibule with access via solid oak doors to the first of the two bedrooms with heightened ceiling, guest shower and toilet.
Entering through the original stable doorway, leads into a usable space under the stairs, large enough for a small home-office or ‘home for the dogs’. The other solid oak door, at the bottom of the double apex stairwell, leads into the huge 7m x 5m master bedroom with a walk-in ensuite bathroom consisting of rain-head shower, ball & claw style bath with matching brushed gold ‘Elizabeth Milano’ taps and a toilet with bidet and ‘Sottini’ hand basin. There is also a 'utility' area that houses both a washing machine and tumble dryer.
The Oak stairwell leads to the even larger open-plan lounge with its huge stripped-back & restored ‘Mercian Preservation’ treated wooden beams, high ceiling and bare-brick feature chimney wall that houses the 10 kWa’ Peanut’ log burner and slate hearth.
Off which leads the split-level, modern, fitted kitchen. With induction hob & black glass oversized extractor fan, black & stainless-steel Integrated Tower Double Oven and matching integrated Compact Microwave. The ‘FRANKE’ double sink and bronze swivel tap, sit aloft the under-counter Dishwasher (that has never been used).
Utilities - Heating is provided throughout the house by 10x award-winning 'Ecostrad IQ Ceramic Core' radiators. With touch-screen displays, built-in Wi-Fi and Motion centred controls.
The water heating system is by way of an ERP A+ award-winning 'Thermino Heat Battery' that maximises space and provides unparalleled solutions for making homes energy efficient & sustainable whilst reducing emission. The water supply itself is filtered via a BMB-1000 4-litre/8-stage Hydra whole-house comprehensive filtration system.
The property has all brand-new wiring and brazed & jointed copper pipe plumbing.
