A recently modernised detached cottage set in a large plot with triple-aspect views across quiet farmland. Renovated seven years ago, the house blends traditional character—sandstone walls, deep ledge windows and a log burner—with a contemporary open-plan kitchen/breakfast room, utility and insulated garden office. The gated driveway fits about four cars and includes an electric car charging point.
The layout works well for families: three double bedrooms with built-in storage, a bright lounge and a single contemporary bathroom with separate shower and freestanding bath. The property benefits from modern electrics, new radiators and Georgian-style double glazing throughout, creating a light, comfortable home while retaining period features in many rooms.
Notable practical points: heating runs on an oil-fired boiler and the cottage fabric likely lacks wall insulation, which may affect running costs. Broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal is average — important if you work from home. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The house is in a remote hamlet within easy driving distance of the A4042 and M4 for Newport, Cardiff and Bristol.
Outside, gardens are divided into useful areas with patios, lawns, a well, large shed and an insulated garden office. The location is peaceful and rural but not isolated from services — Caerleon and Cwmbran are within practical reach for schools and shopping. This is a characterful, modernised countryside home that requires buyers to accept oil heating, limited digital connectivity and potential wall insulation work.
