Offering plenty of flexibility, this well-presented home offers a pleasant neutral decor throughout and is currently utilised as eight double bedrooms, with six of them benefiting from an en-suite shower room, and a home office with a cloakroom which could serve as an additional bedroom if required.

Outside, the property has a low-maintenance, fully enclosed courtyard garden with a summer house offering a private garden room, a creative studio, or a home office. To the front is a spacious driveway providing that all-important off-road parking for multiple vehicles.

Offering a convenient family lifestyle, 54 Castle Road is a short, flat-level walk away from the town centre of Newport which offers a wide range of shops and supermarkets, a cinema, restaurants, and cafes. The Southern Vectis bus station is also located in the town centre providing an extensive network of bus routes across the island.
