This stone-built cottage, dating from the 1700s, sits in about 0.72 acres of orchard and gardens in the sought-after village of Llanvapley, four miles from Abergavenny. The house offers spacious, flexible accommodation across ground and first floors — two reception rooms with fireplaces, a sunroom with mature grape vine, a refitted kitchen/breakfast room, utility/boot room and a ground-floor room with cloakroom that can serve as a bedroom or snug.
Upstairs there are four double bedrooms (one reached via a separate stair) and three bathrooms, including two en-suites. The layout suits extended families, occasional guest lets or someone wanting separate ground-floor accommodation. Outside, mature planting, a wildlife pond, orchard and south-facing patio create private outdoor living; outbuildings include a workshop, sheds, chicken house, ample off-road parking and a detached double garage with electric door.
Practical notes: the property uses oil-fired central heating with a boiler and radiators, has double glazing installed before 2002, and the original granite/whinstone walls appear to have no added insulation. Council tax is noted as quite expensive. Broadband and mobile signals are average in this remoter rural community — generally peaceful but in a wider area classed as very deprived, which may affect services and resale dynamics.
This home combines period character, generous outdoor space and flexible accommodation in a quiet village setting. It will suit buyers seeking a substantial country cottage with garden and workshop potential, while those prioritising modern energy efficiency should expect some retrofit work.
