Spacious five-bedroom home with large garden and scope to modernise.
Built 1856 with 1970s extension offering flexible accommodation
Set on the edge of Monmouth, this distinctive 1856 period cottage with a 1970s extension occupies a generous plot with far-reaching countryside views. The house offers flexible accommodation across approximately 2,409 sq ft, including two reception rooms, a kitchen with adjacent storerooms, five bedrooms (one ensuite) and a detached garage with private driveway. A small orchard and well-established garden provide outdoor privacy and scope for landscaping.
The property has clear strengths: mains gas heating with boiler and underfloor heating, a substantial footprint, and a semi-rural position close to town amenities and strong local schools. It comes freehold and sits outside flood-risk areas, making it a straightforward long-term purchase for buyers who want space and character.
Important to note: the house needs renovation and modernisation throughout — upgrades to decor, services and possibly thermal and electrical elements should be expected. Broadband is slow and mobile signal is only average, which may affect home-working. Council tax is described as quite expensive, and the wider area records pockets of high deprivation despite the generally affluent local classification.
This home suits buyers seeking a family-sized property with character and garden space, or investors and renovators looking for a project with strong potential. The combination of period features, large plot and elevated views means careful investment could significantly increase comfort and value.
