About this home
SUMMARY Historic Bassaleg Village Home with Exceptional Garden! Combining period charm, substantial accommodation, an exceptional garden and superb commuter links, this is a particularly distinctive family home in one of the area's most desirable locations. Ideally positioned.
DESCRIPTION A rare opportunity to acquire a truly characterful and deceptively spacious family home, dating back to 1871 and occupying an enviable position in the heart of the sought-after village of Bassaleg.
Formerly known as Lilford Cottage and once serving as the village police station, this fascinating historic property combines a wealth of period character with modern family living. The home has been thoughtfully enhanced by a stylish rear extension and now provides exceptionally versatile accommodation arranged over three floors, with five generous double bedrooms and two bathrooms.
The ground floor offers a welcoming entrance, two reception rooms, a spacious family kitchen/diner and a convenient WC. Upstairs, the property continues to impress with five well-proportioned double bedrooms and two bathrooms, providing ample space for a growing family, guests or those working from home.
Externally, the property is equally impressive. To the front is a gated, easily maintained garden, while to the rear lies an outstanding, larger-than-average lawned garden, offering an excellent degree of privacy and space for entertaining, children and family life. A long block-paved driveway provides generous off-road parking, complemented by an attractive paved seating area a particularly rare combination for a property in such a well-connected village location.
