Noent House, one of the most historic properties in Newent, sitting conveniently on the High Street, Newent, Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire. ***CHAIN FREE & RENOVATED*** This property is all about it's location, and history. Welcome to Noent House, and welcome to your new home. A truly exceptional Grade II listed two-bedroom, improved, turnkey home set in the heart of the charming market town of Newent, within the picturesque Forest of Dean. Believed to date back to the Tudor era or older, this remarkable property was formerly known as “The New Inn” and offers a rare opportunity to own a beautifully preserved piece of local history. Lovingly upgraded by the current owner, the property has been thoughtfully enhanced throughout while remaining sympathetic to its heritage. Improvements include stylish redecoration, new hard flooring and carpets, upgraded triple-glazed front windows (with 10 year guarantee), and the addition of a modern bathroom and efficient combi boiler—ensuring a comfortable lifestyle alongside its period charm. Approached via the original three steps—traditionally designed to separate the outside elements from the clean interior—you are immediately welcomed by a sense of tranquillity. Stepping through the traditional wooden door, the ground floor opens into an inviting, character-filled living space. Cleverly arranged around the staircase, the layout offers both openness and subtle separation. The spindle detailing allows natural light to flow effortlessly from front to back, creating a bright yet cosy atmosphere, while still giving the flexibility to define individual areas if desired. The overriding impression is one of “flow,” as each space connects seamlessly in a way that feels both unique and practical, enhanced by original beams and period features throughout. The kitchen continues this balance of character and practicality. Modern and highly functional, it offers a larger-than-average footprint for a property of this type, with ample workspace and flexibility to incorporate a breakfast bar or a small dining table. Adding to its charm is a delightful hidden feature—a small original bread oven, a fascinating nod to what would have been considered advanced engineering at the time of construction. Upstairs, the sense of character continues. The landing is a wonderfully charming space in its own right, with exposed original beams and doors leading to both bedrooms and the bathroom, creating a cohesive and characterful upper floor. The principal bedroom is simply stunning—generous in size and filled with a peaceful, timeless atmosphere. History is evident in every corner, particularly in the charming tiny window, originally designed to let in natural light before the advent of electrical lighting, and thought to have once served as a lookout point. Newly carpeted and complemented by fitted cupboards, this is a truly special room and undoubtedly one of the standout features of the home. The second bedroom is also well-proportioned, featuring built-in wardrobes and striking exposed timber framing that adds visual interest and warmth—sure to be a talking point for visitors. This room could have a multitude of uses, a home office or playroom for the grandchildren if a second bedroom isn't needed. The modern bathroom has been thoughtfully designed to incorporate a shower, wash basin, and WC—an addition that blends seamlessly into the home while offering the everyday conveniences not present when the property was originally built. Externally, the property enjoys a charming and manageable outdoor space. Perfectly sized for relaxing or entertaining, there is ample room for garden furniture, a BBQ, or even a hot tub. The garden comes into its own during the summer months, with plants blooming beautifully, and benefits from afternoon sun, making it an inviting and easy-to-maintain retreat. Perfectly positioned on Newent’s historic High Street, the location is second to none. A wide range of independent cafés, shops, traditional pubs, and restaurants are all just a short stroll from the front door, making everyday living both convenient and vibrant. The property also benefits from excellent connectivity, with easy access to nearby towns such as Ross-on-Wye and Ledbury, as well as convenient links to the M50 and M5, making it ideal for commuters and those looking to explore the wider region. 🎓 Schools Within walking distance: Glebe Infant School – Infant School (ages 4–7) Picklenash Junior School – Junior School (ages 7–11) Newent Community School & Sixth Form Centre – Secondary School and Sixth Form, approximately 0.5 miles away. 🏛 Nearby Attractions Three Choirs Vineyard International Centre for Birds of Prey Symonds Yat Forest of Dean Malvern Hills 🌳 Green Spaces & Leisure Nearby attractions include: Newent Arboretum Newent Lake Broadford Meadow Arboretum Also nearby: Newent Recreation Ground Extensive countryside walks Three Choirs Vineyard Forest of Dean (around 20 minutes away) Malvern Hills (around 30 minutes away) Ideal for walkers, cyclists and dog owners This truly is a unique home, ideally suited to a first-time buyer, downsizer, Airbnb, or anyone looking for a character property with amenities right on the doorstep.
