This deceptively spacious former shop and cottage on Old Dixton Road offers town-centre convenience with characterful living spaces. A stylish kitchen with central island leads straight to a landscaped courtyard, while a cosy snug, formal dining area with wood-burning stove and a generous sitting room with French doors create flexible reception spaces for everyday life and entertaining.
Arranged over three floors, the house provides four good bedrooms (optionally five), including two en suites and a family bathroom. The top-floor layout includes a cleverly converted room currently used as a kitchen, offering potential for multigenerational use, guest accommodation or a separate suite subject to preferences. Practical features include a utility/cloakroom, double glazing installed post‑2002, mains gas boiler with radiators, and freehold tenure.
Outside, the landscaped courtyard garden is designed for year-round interest and low-maintenance enjoyment, with multiple seating areas and a gardener’s loo for convenience. The location is a short walk from Monmouth’s high street, cafés, boutiques and river walks — appealing for buyers seeking a compact, well-connected home without losing a sense of tranquillity.
Notable practical points: the property sits on a small plot with no obvious off-street parking; the wider area metrics show higher local crime and pronounced area deprivation, which may be a consideration for some buyers. The interior layout is unconventional in places (converted top-floor kitchen/room), so buyers should check whether the arrangement suits their needs or needs reconfiguration. Overall, this home suits downsizers or buyers seeking flexible town living with character, provided they accept the small plot and central location trade-offs.
