Highfield, Blaina

Welcome to a piece of Blaina's history—a substantial early 20th-century period property, said to be originally built for a local goldsmith. Set on a generous plot just shy of a third of an acre, this home isn't just a residence; it's a lifestyle statement. With ample space for family living, five spacious bedrooms, extensive parking for those with large families or businesses, and potential for further extension (subject to planning), it's a canvas ready for your next chapter.

Step inside, and you're immediately embraced by the charm and elegance that only a period property can offer. The ground floor unfolds into a series of well-appointed rooms, each designed for both comfort and function. Picture the kitchen/breakfast room as the heart of your daily life, where mornings begin with the aroma of fresh coffee and evenings wind down over shared meals and laughter with french doors leading out to the gardens. The large reception and sitting rooms, with their generous proportions and views of the valley through their bay windows, offer versatile spaces perfect for hosting gatherings or enjoying quiet, reflective moments. There is also a large utility room and ground floor shower room. Every inch of this home speaks to its well-maintained status, inviting you to move right in and start making memories.

Head upstairs, and you'll discover five spacious bedrooms that offer a perfect blend of comfort and privacy. The master bedroom comes complete with its own ensuite, creating a private retreat for relaxation. The remaining bedrooms are generous in size, making them ideal for family members, guests, or even as a home office or study. A well-appointed family bathroom serves this floor, designed to cater to the needs of a busy household. With a walk-in wardrobe and plenty of storage throughout, you'll find space for everything, ensuring the upstairs remains a clutter-free sanctuary. 

Step outside into your own private haven. The substantial plot offers not only a wealth of parking but also endless possibilities for outdoor living. Whether you're envisioning garden parties in your wrap around garden, a play area for children, or simply a space to unwind and take in the breathtaking valley views, this garden is a blank canvas. The scope for extension is also an exciting prospect, subject to planning, giving you the flexibility to tailor this home to your family's evolving needs.
