Description
An attractive bay-fronted Victorian home dating back to 1888, offering a wealth of original character features, three double bedrooms, spacious reception rooms, ample off-road parking and an exceptional rear garden extending to over 300 feet. Previously granted planning permission (now lapsed) provides inspiration for those wishing to further enhance this already impressive family home.

Description
Dating back to 1888, this handsome bay-fronted Victorian home is full of charm and character, retaining a wealth of original period features whilst offering generous family accommodation. One of its most impressive features is the beautifully maintained rear garden, extending to over 300 feet, creating a wonderful outdoor space rarely found with properties of this age.

Stepping inside, the welcoming reception hall immediately sets the tone, featuring the original quarry tiled floor, an elegant staircase and decorative corbels that reflect the home’s Victorian heritage.

The accommodation flows beautifully throughout. The dining room enjoys the warmth of a wood-burning stove and leads through to the fitted kitchen with classic shaker-style units, creating a sociable space for everyday living. To the front of the property, the attractive bay-fronted sitting room benefits from original cornicing, a working fireplace and double doors opening into the family room, allowing both spaces to be used together or independently as required.

The split-level first-floor landing provides access to three well-proportioned double bedrooms, a stylish modern four-piece family bathroom and a separate WC.

Externally, the property offers ample off-road parking to the front, while the exceptional rear garden stretches to in excess of 300 feet, providing extensive lawned areas, mature planting and endless opportunities for gardening, entertaining or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings.

The current owners previously obtained full planning permission for a substantial rear extension, alterations to create a rear dormer within the roof space, together with the construction of a garden room and separate shed (Planning Reference: P1730/22/FUL). Although this permission has now lapsed, it may provide an excellent starting point for any future purchaser wishing to explore similar proposals, subject to the necessary planning consent.

A wonderful Victorian home that successfully combines period character, generous living space and an outstanding garden, offering enormous potential for the next owners to make it their own.

The property itself is excellently located and is close to popular junior and comprehensive schools, as well as local shops and cafes, all of which of which are within walking distance.
For the outdoor enthusiast, there are many walks nearby, including the Wye Valley Greenway and Offas Dyke footpath. The Forest of Dean and Wye Valley are also a short distance away.
The market town of Chepstow is also within close proximity with an attendant range of facilities along with bus and rail inks. The A48, M48, M4 and M5 motorway networks bring Newport, Cardiff, Bristol, Gloucester and Cheltenham within commuting distance.
