<p><strong>TO BOOK YOUR VIEWING, WHEN CALLING QUOTE REFERENCE: RY0585</strong></p><p><strong>Owner's comments</strong></p><p>"10 Newport Terrace has been our family home for the last 10 years, we fell in love with the house and its Georgian period features on our first viewing. They say location is key and this certainly applies here, we are in the perfect position of being close enough to good schools, parks, local trails, shops, restaurants, transport links and a local pub! We’ve recently become first time grandparents and are missing out on seeing our grandchild grow, so we’ve made the decision to relocate to the East Midlands, a massive step which we’re very excited to face. Saying goodbye to Newport Terrace will be sad, if we could transport the house with us we would! We really hope someone sees what we see and appreciate what this home has to offer."</p><p><strong>Accommodation</strong></p><p>Stepping into through the front door, the charm and elegance of the classic Georgian home is immediately apparent. A warm and inviting entrance welcomes you in through an original hallway arch, while the sitting room to the right is the hub of the home. A large bay window to the front makes this a bright and spacious area, with beautifully crafted coving joining together the walls and high ceilings. The original cast iron open fireplace creates the perfect focal point to the room and adds yet more to this character filled front room.</p><p>The dining room is a charming additional reception area with double doors that can access the enclosed courtyard, while at the back of the home the stylish kitchen is a neat and compact space with slick white cupboards and drawers. Fitted appliances include a fridge/freezer, electric oven with induction hob and extractor canopy over.
