Description

Beautifully presented character cottage which has been thoughtfully updated with contemporary fittings to complement the period features. The wow factor is the rear elevation which has been glazed to both maximise light and take advantage of the superb views. Located above the village of Gilwern which is located within the Bannau Brycheiniog / Brecon Beacons National Park.

Step Inside

The front of the cottage does not do the interior justice, step into the welcoming entrance hall which provides access to the principal living areas. A useful cloakroom/W.C. is located off the hall, the spacious sitting room has much character with split level wooden floors, log burner and wooden staircase rising to the first floor. Double doors lead through to the heart of the house and the wow feature, an open plan kitchen/ dining room which enjoys panoramic views of the surrounding countryside through a vaulted glazed gable. The kitchen is comprehensively fitted to a high standard and offers a range of base and wall cupboards with space for appliances and a breakfast bar. An exposed stone wall is a reminder that the cottage has much history and is a contract to the more modern glazed window design. The ground floor is completed by a useful study/television/play room, an ideal place to retreat from the main living areas.

First Floor

To the first floor are three bedrooms, all filled with features and character in keeping with the period of the cottage. Aside from the bedrooms, the first floor accommodates the family bathroom which has a roll edged bath with rainfall shower over and vanity wash hand basin. In addition to this is a separate W.C. and a wash hand basin.

Step Outside

Located in an elevated position, the cottage is approached via a shared gated pedestrian access. To the rear is is a large terrace which is ideal for al-fresco dining and enjoying the spectacular views. Steps lead down to a generous lawned garden. To the lower level is a summer house and green house which are ideal for relaxing and working in the garden . All these areas have an array of plants and shrubs and enjoy views of the beautiful countryside. On street parking is available.

Location

The village of Gilwern lies between Abergavenny and Crickhowell and boasts an enviable location in the Brecon Beacons National Park (Bannau Brycheiniog) and enjoys stunning mountain and countryside scenery, as well as the Brecon to Monmouthshire canal and the River Usk which meander through the village, which also offers a local school, a range of amenities including shops, public houses, and places of worship.
