Description
Description - Tucked away on the peaceful edge of Newport, Lavender Leap is one of those homes that just feels right the moment you arrive. Set along the quiet, no-through Plough Lane, this beautifully renovated detached bungalow sits on a generous plot and has been thoughtfully reimagined for modern living — blending clean, contemporary style with a warm, welcoming atmosphere.
Step inside through the handy porch/boot room into a spacious entrance hall that immediately sets the tone for the rest of the home. The sitting room is light and inviting, with French doors opening onto the side garden — ideal for summer evenings — and flows seamlessly into the stylish kitchen/dining room. Here, sleek wall and base units, a composite sink, and integrated appliances — including a halogen hob with extractor, electric oven/grill, and fridge/freezer — create a space that’s as practical as it is elegant. French doors from the dining area open directly onto the garden, making entertaining effortless.
A well-appointed utility room mirrors the kitchen’s contemporary finish and provides additional storage, a composite sink, plumbing for a washing machine, and direct access to the rear garden. A convenient guest cloakroom sits just off this space.
The principal bedroom is a bright and generously proportioned double, enjoying dual-aspect views and a luxurious en-suite complete with a walk-in shower, vanity unit with wash basin, and W.C. Two further double bedrooms offer flexibility for family, guests, or a home office, all served by a stylish family bathroom featuring a P-shaped bath with mains shower, wall-hung wash basin, and W.C.
Outside, a gated gravel driveway provides ample parking and turning space for multiple vehicles. The substantial plot wraps around both sides of the property — one side lending itself perfectly to a private seating area or low-maintenance garden. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn and fully enclosed, creating a safe and secure space for children and pets to enjoy.
Lavender Leap offers the best of both worlds: a peaceful setting with the space, style, and flexibility to suit modern family life.
Location - Perfectly placed just moments from Newport High Street, Lavender Leap enjoys the best of both worlds — peaceful surroundings with everyday essentials close at hand. Newport offers a fantastic mix of independent shops, welcoming pubs, popular eateries, and major supermarkets including Waitrose.
For those who love the outdoors, you’re spoiled for choice with scenic walks along Newport Canal, around Aqualate Mere, and through the beautiful Chetwynd Woods — all just a short distance away.
