Full description
3 King Street is a private 4 bedroom traditional terraced house situated in a very sought after location in the highly desirable village of Newport in North Pembrokeshire.
Sitting a quarter of a mile from the bustling market street, on a road leading off in to the Preseli Hills, 3 King Street combines easy access to Newport and it’s excellent amenities with a feeling of rural privacy, and boasts a wonderful manicured private south-facing garden stretching to approximately 250 feet.
The house was renovated and modified by the previous owners to maximise the space, creating a lovely flow to the ground floor. The main reception room can be opened fully to the dining room or second reception which, in turn, opens via double doors in to the kitchen - perfect for families staying in touch across several rooms and entertaining, allowing flow from room to room with access to the whole of the ground floor providing an open plan feel. When the connecting doors are closed the rooms can then be used as individual private spaces.
Upstairs at 3 King Street boasts four sizeable bedrooms, all capable of taking a double bed and all with built-in cupboards. One bedroom is already en-suite. At the front of the property the bedrooms have lovely views across open fields and down to the sea and beach, whilst at the back the two bedrooms face due south across the courtyard and garden and benefit from full sunlight.
The rear garden at 3 King Street affords complete privacy across four connecting separate sections. Access from the back of the house is into a sun trap courtyard with space for a table and chairs and hammock – a small utility outbuilding/potting shed lies to the left. Stone steps and rockery lead to a second paved seating and the lawn, flanked on both sides by a selection of manicured mature bushes and hedges. A stepped archway gives access to the greenhouse and shed garden with two mature cherry trees. Above this lies a small working composting site and then the final secret garden which was once wild flower meadow, and a small bespoke folly at the very top of the garden.
