Property

This historic Grade II Listed Landmark Building is situated on the attractive cobbled St Mary's Street in the market town of Newport, prominently positioned just off the High Street, close to St Nicholas Church and the Haberdasher's Adams Grammar School. With planning permission (TWC/2021/042) in place for an exclusive development of up to 17 apartments (a mixture of luxury 1,2,3 and 4 bedroomed apartments), this impressive three-story building is the former Royal Victoria Hotel, dating from 1830. Named after Queen Victoria, who visited the hotel as a princess in 1832, the apartment block will proudly retain the historic name. The existing structure will be partially demolished to accommodate the new development, and it should be noted that these demolition works have already commenced, with the party wall agreements in place. In line with the planning permission, the attractive façade will be retained and any developer will be keen to know that the property comes with parking spaces behind the building.
