Set on about a quarter-acre on the edge of St Briavels, this stone-built house blends medieval origins with Victorian extension and generous living spaces. Six double bedrooms and flexible reception rooms suit a large family, multi-generational household or those wanting home working and leisure zones. South-facing sitting room windows and sun terraces capture views across the Wye Valley AONB.
The house retains many period features: high ceilings, deep stone window seats, exposed brick and original fireplaces. The dining kitchen with Esse wood burner sits at the heart of the home and a second kitchen plus a basement currently used as a gym/utility offer practical, adaptable space. The master bedroom includes a dressing room and vaulted beamed ceiling with skylights.
Outdoor space is a major asset — lawns, mature trees, fruit trees and terraces provide privacy and places to follow sun or shade. A gate leads to woodland and a stream that runs toward a wildlife pond. Local amenities include a primary school rated Good, a deli, pub and monthly farmers’ market; Monmouth and larger towns are within easy driving distance.
Practical points to note: heating is LPG-fuelled via boiler and radiators (not a mains gas supply), the stone walls are assumed uninsulated and broadband speeds are very slow locally. There is a medium flooding risk in the area and drainage is private. Some finishing work has been left to a new owner (ground-floor bathroom decisions) and the house will suit buyers prepared to maintain and sympathetically update a historic property.
