A fabulous opportunity to acquire a Grade II listed end-of-terrace two-bedroom cottage in the heart of Newport, with a courtyard garden and a private off-street parking space.

Originally constructed in the late 1700s, 139 Pyle Street is a unique period cottage, filled with potential. The characterful façade, complete with chequered brickwork, sets the tone for the property, which comprises a kitchen and sitting room on the ground floor, a bedroom and shower room on the first floor, and a further bedroom on the top floor. Outside the cottage benefits from a courtyard garden and a rare town-centre parking space. The property offers potential to update, and retains period features such as the open fireplace in the living room and the ‘winder’ staircases that connect the three floors.

This home is set in the most convenient location in the principal town of Newport, perfectly positioned on a side street, close enough to enjoy the bustle of town centre living. The many services and amenities of Newport are right on the doorstep, including a wide range of shops, a cinema, restaurants and cafes, and the Southern Vectis bus station providing an extensive network of bus routes across the Island. The central location also provides easy access to mainland travel links, connecting to Southampton and Portsmouth.

Welcome To 139 Pyle Street - From popular Pyle Street, the charming white façade of No. 139, which has remained largely unchanged for over 200 years, retains its character, and creates a welcoming entrance into the cottage.

Sitting Room - 3.87m x 3.17m (12'8" x 10'4" ) - The sitting room is well proportioned and full of period character, with an exposed beam in the ceiling believed to have been an 18th Century ships timber, and a large fireplace with exposed brickwork. There is a window to the front aspect with frosted glass for privacy, a winding staircase to the first floor and a door to the kitchen.

Kitchen - 4.00m x 2.12m (13'1" x 6'11") - Light and bright, with a large window looking over the courtyard garden, the kitchen currently has fitted units and worktops to two walls, with a sink under the window, an integrated oven and hob, and tiled splashbacks.

First-Floor Landing - The period ‘winder’ staircase turns up to the first-floor landing, which has doors to bedroom one, the shower room, and a door to the staircase to the second floor.

Bedroom One - 4.07m x 3.15m max (13'4" x 10'4" max) - Arranged to make the most of the available space, the first-floor bedroom is neutrally decorated and has a window to the front aspect, looking over the local fire station grounds.

Bedroom Two - 4.34m x 3.03m under eaves (14'2" x 9'11" under eav - From the landing, a further winder staircase ascends to the top floor, which is spacious, despite having restricted head height due to the vaulted ceiling.

Outside - The private courtyard is paved, and is enclosed with attractive brick walls on two sides and a fence to the other. A gate leads out onto Langley Court, where there is also a private parking space which belongs to the cottage.
