Summary - MOUNT BALLAN MILFRE HOUSE PORTSKEWETT CALDICOT NP26 5UN
3 bed 3 bath Detached
Large pre‑1900 family home with huge gardens and garage — good scope to upgrade.
Close to Chepstow and Caldicot, good road and rail links
Set on nearly half an acre in a peaceful hamlet near Chepstow and Caldicot, this substantial three-bedroom detached home offers roomy family living and generous outdoor space. The house provides multiple reception rooms, a large kitchen with adjoining utility, and three double bedrooms each served by its own bathroom — useful for family routines and guests. A huge double garage with a boarded attic presents practical storage and scope to extend subject to consents.
The mature, private gardens and expansive front driveway give excellent space for children, pets and parking for many vehicles. Good road and rail links are within easy reach, while broadband speeds are reported fast — helpful for home-working and streaming. Flood risk is nil.
Important practical points: the property is historic (pre-1900 sandstone/limestone walls with no built-in insulation assumed) and some internal areas are dated — notably the kitchen. Drainage is to a cess pit rather than mains sewer. Council tax is band H and described as very expensive. Mobile signal at the house is intermittent. These are material factors for ongoing running costs and any modernisation plans.
Overall this is a roomy family home with rare, very large grounds and clear potential for improvement. Buyers seeking lots of private outdoor space and the ability to invest in upgrading and insulating a character property will find real upside here; those wanting a fully modern, low-maintenance home should plan for refurbishment and added running costs.
