Within a walk of Newport station and shops and just 10 kilometres from the CBD, this smart townhouse has designer elements that deliver extra panache. Stretches of lovely polished floorboards and a combo of white fittings, black accents and off-white wall colour provides a fresh, crisp feel to spacious rooms. Three large bedrooms up top include the main with a wall of mirrored robes and a sleek en suite. A downstairs study could be a fourth bedroom. The main bathroom is a stylish affair, with a freestanding bath sitting on black floor tiles. The glossy kitchen has a stone-wrapped island bench under feature pendant lights, black splashback and a 900mm gas cooker under a canopy rangehood. Gas ducted heating and refrigerated cooling take care of changing seasons, and other perks are an alarm system and a colour-video intercom. The compact backyard has a timber deck surrounded by river stones and there’s a single remote-controlled garage.
