Large detached cottage with circa 2,002 sq ft overall size
Set on approximately 0.8 acres on The Kymin, this detached three-bedroom cottage delivers striking, far-reaching countryside views from generous principal rooms. The house has an unusually large footprint (around 2,002 sq ft) with a spacious kitchen/dining area, living room with parquet flooring and a garden room that opens directly onto mature, landscaped grounds — ideal for family life and entertaining.
The gardens are a standout: mature planting, a large lawn, central wildlife pond, patio for outdoor dining, a greenhouse and former vegetable plots ready to be revived. Parking is plentiful with a driveway, wooden carport and a separate single garage. The property sits within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty yet is only about a mile from Monmouth’s shops, schools and amenities.
Buyers should note several practical considerations. The house is of traditional stone construction predating 1900 and the walls are assumed to have no built-in insulation. Heating is by an oil-fired boiler and radiators (oil tank present), and broadband speeds are reported as very slow — factors to budget for if you need modern energy efficiency or fast connectivity. The location is rural and relatively isolated, and the large grounds will require ongoing maintenance.
Overall this home suits families or buyers seeking country lifestyle and spectacular views who are prepared to manage period-property upkeep and improve energy performance. The spacious layout, three bathrooms and substantial plot create clear potential for enhancement, garden projects and comfortable long-term occupation.
