4 Bedroom Terraced House

A truly elegant Grade II Listed townhouse in the heart of Newport, combining timeless period charm with versatile modern living. Boasting four generous bedrooms, beautifully preserved original features, a stunning family bathroom, a self-contained one-bedroom annexe, substantial workshop and a private walled garden, this exceptional home offers a rare opportunity to own a character property with both space and flexibility in one of Barnstaple's most sought-after locations.

Situated in the sought-after Newport area of Barnstaple, this Grade II Listed townhouse is full of character and charm. From the elegant rendered facade with its classically proportioned windows and pillared front door surround, to the exquisite original plasterwork cornicing within, 2 Clarence Place has genuine heritage, real architectural integrity, and the kind of character that simply cannot be replicated. Inside, the beautifully proportioned sitting room is anchored by a striking original black marble fireplace, while the generous dining room, with its sage green arched alcoves and tall sash windows, is the sort of room that invites long, relaxed evenings around the table. The kitchen, housed in a characterful vaulted extension, has a wonderfully homely feel, and moving upstairs, the landing is lit from above by a beautiful original oval lantern skylight that pours natural light through the heart of the home. There are 4 generous bedrooms with one benefitting from an en-suite shower room. The family bathroom is genuinely stunning, centered around a freestanding roll-top bath on ornate brass feet alongside a separate marble-effect shower enclosure with brass fittings and warm hardwood floors beneath.

The property offers considerably more than the main house alone. A thoughtfully designed one-bedroom annexe provides superb flexibility, whether for extended family, a home working space, or an income-generating opportunity, while to the rear there is a pretty courtyard with an outdoor store and laundry room that leads to the substantial workshop and private walled garden beyond that offers a lovely outdoor retreat, well-screened by mature trees and shrubs, with a lawned area and paved terrace perfect for al-fresco dining on a sunny afternoon.
