Four double bedrooms with expansive countryside views
Set within the former dairy farm at Coedkernew, this four-bedroom Victorian cottage offers generous, characterful living across about 2,353 sq ft and sits on a very large plot including a paddock of approximately one acre. Period features — flagstone fireplace, bow window, arched brickwork and a log burner — give the house immediate charm while spacious reception rooms and a Mediterranean-style kitchen make it practical for everyday family life and entertaining.
Outdoors is a major asset: gated drive, double garage, extensive parking for many cars, a circular patio with rose beds, an outdoor swimming pool and several outbuildings (one with a sauna). The paddock lends itself to small-scale equestrian use, hobby farming, or leisure pursuits and provides long views across flat countryside. Road links are strong — quick access to the A48 and M4 — making commutes to Newport or Cardiff straightforward.
There are material considerations to accept up front. The plot and pool demand ongoing maintenance; the house has been in single ownership for decades and will benefit from updating to modern systems and finishes in places. Broadband speeds are reported as slow. Local area statistics note high crime and high area deprivation levels, which prospective buyers should factor into long-term plans and insurance costs.
This property suits a family or hobbyist buyer seeking space, privacy and rural character within reach of city amenities — someone prepared for regular grounds upkeep and targeted refurbishment to unlock the home’s full potential. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, period detailing and the one-acre paddock that together make this a rare semi-rural opportunity close to major roads.
