Description

53 Newtown Road is a remarkable Georgian residence where history, elegance and modern family living come together effortlessly. Positioned along one of Waterford's most established and admired addresses, this exceptional home forms part of the original Newtown Buildings, a terrace of distinguished four storey Georgian residences dating back to the 1840s. Originally built to accommodate prominent Quaker families and later serving as boarding accommodation for Newtown School, the property carries with it a rich history while offering a warm and much loved family home for modern living. Lovingly cared for by the current owners for over 20 years, the property has been thoughtfully renovated and sympathetically extended, carefully preserving the original architectural character that makes homes of this era so special. From the moment you step through the door, the sense of character is unmistakable. Elegant ceiling cornicing and mouldings, original joinery, sash windows with shutters, the original marble fireplace and original tiling all combine to create a home with timeless charm and warmth. Every room offers a sense of individuality and atmosphere, with period details sitting comfortably alongside carefully considered upgrades. Accommodation extends across four generous floors and has been designed to adapt beautifully to family life. The welcoming entrance hall leads through to an elegant reception space with wood burning stove. Beyond the reception room a spacious kitchen with central island flows naturally into a sunroom overlooking the garden beyond. Practicality has also been carefully considered with a utility room, full length storage press and guest WC completing the ground floor accommodation. The upper floors continue to impress with beautifully proportioned accommodation thoughtfully arranged across three further levels. The first floor is home to an elegant main reception room, a wonderful space for both everyday living and entertaining, centred around an original marble fireplace that has been lovingly restored by the current owners and serves as a striking focal point within the room. Large sash windows flood the space with natural light, further enhancing its warmth and character. Also on this level is a generously sized bedroom together with a spacious family bathroom enjoying views across the mature rear garden below. The second floor accommodates three beautifully appointed bedrooms. Two of the rooms are connected by a Jack and Jill style bathroom, thoughtfully designed to provide convenience and privacy while creating comfortable retreats for family members or guests alike. The third floor is dedicated to an impressive principal bedroom suite, offering a peaceful and private sanctuary complete with ensuite bathroom and generous walk in wardrobe space. Throughout the upper levels, large windows frame leafy surroundings and garden views, allowing natural light to pour through the property and enhancing the sense of warmth, character and space throughout. To the front, the property benefits from valuable off street parking for two cars. To the rear, the home opens into a truly enchanting south westerly facing garden extending to an impressive length and backing onto the mature grounds of Newtown School. Beautifully established over many years, this private outdoor sanctuary unfolds through a series of distinct spaces and hidden corners, creating a garden that feels more like a peaceful retreat than a traditional town garden. Natural stone patio areas provide the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, while winding pathways lead through an abundance of mature planting, established trees and carefully positioned seating areas designed to capture sunlight throughout the day. A tranquil pond creates a wonderful focal point and adds to the calm atmosphere, while secluded seating terraces tucked among the greenery offer the ideal place to relax with a morning coffee or unwind at the end of the day. Rich with texture, colour and privacy, the garden offers an ever changing landscape through the seasons and becomes a natural extension of the home itself. The location speaks for itself. Newtown has long been considered one of Waterford's most sought after residential addresses, placing excellent primary and secondary schools, sporting facilities, leisure amenities and the vibrant city centre all within easy reach. Homes like No. 53 rarely come to the market. Rich in history, filled with character and thoughtfully adapted for contemporary family living, this is more than simply a beautiful Georgian residence, it is a home with presence, warmth and a story waiting for its next chapter. Reflecting its architectural and historical importance, No. 53 is recorded on the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage under Registration Number 22830246. *** Liberty Blue Estate Agents and their servants or agents assume no responsibility for and give no guarantees, undertakings or warranties concerning the accuracy, completeness or up to date nature of the information and do not accept any liability whatsoever arising from any errors or omissions.
