Set beside the Llanmynach Brook, this double-fronted, detached cottage combines original character with comfortable modern living. Exposed stonework, oak trim and a striking stone chimney with a multi-fuel burner create a warm, authentic feel, while a shaker-style kitchen and separate utility add everyday practicality. The handcrafted open-bay garden room, with birch and oak detailing plus a wood stove, extends year-round living into the garden.
Upstairs offers three generous bedrooms, the principal with vaulted beams and dual aspect light. A four-piece bathroom provides both a shower cubicle and a deep bath. Outside, wraparound gardens, level lawns, a spring-fed pond and two patio areas deliver peaceful country views and private outdoor space. Off-street parking and a block-paved driveway accommodate visitors easily.
Important practical points: the house is oil-heated via a boiler and radiators and is likely built with traditional stone walls assumed to have no cavity insulation. Mobile signal is reported as none and broadband speeds average. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The property has not flooded and is fully insurable.
This cottage will suit buyers seeking rural village life close to Abergavenny — families or couples wanting character, garden space and community amenities. It also offers scope for energy upgrades or insulation improvement for anyone wanting to reduce running costs.
