This stunning executive property in a picturesque village location combines a visionary renovation of a former farmhouse with a magnificent extension which takes full advantage of the breathtaking, long distance outlook over the rolling Monmouthshire countryside towards the Severn Estuary.
Luxurious and stylish, the unique, contemporary detached home has been planned to the last detail, so it is ideal for a busy family to move straight in. Designed to be easy to live in and economic to run, it has five spacious bedrooms, a versatile home office above the garage and a low-maintenance, landscaped garden.
Creating a "wow" first impression, the property marries the traditional appearance of a stone-built former farmhouse, with its brick coins and window surrounds and its red clay-tiled roof, with a superb extension, clad in Western Red Cedar and with large powder-coated aluminium windows and bifold doors. Internally, it is exquisitely presented.
In a "best of both worlds" location, the property is in an area which provides a peaceful escape and lots of opportunities for enjoying an outdoor lifestyle, whilst having good access to nearby towns and to the motorway network, linking to Cardiff, Bristol and the Midlands. It is close to the charming village of Trelleck, set on a plateau above the River Wye in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Trelleck is a sociable community, well served by a vibrant village hall, a medical centre and well-regarded Primary School. Within walking distance of the property, there are two local pubs. Monmouth, just six miles away, is an historic market town, with plenty of shops and other amenities and renowned schools, including the prestigious Haberdashers' Monmouth independent boys' and girls' schools.
Step inside: - Spacious, light and airy, this exceptional residence combines elegance and charm. The impressive living room, which runs the full length of the former stone-built property, has three farmhouse-style windows taking in the views. A focal feature is a reclaimed brick fireplace with an oak mantle over, ready for a wood burning stove. The living room has elegant oak flooring, complemented by sycamore window sills. French doors at one end of the room open to a paved patio at the side of the house.
Adjacent to the living room is a snug/TV room/playroom with a glazed door and window to the side patio. This multi-purpose room could be used as a downstairs bedroom as there is a beautifully presented, fully tiled shower room next door.
With bifold doors across one corner, framing the views and flooding the space with natural light, the superb open plan kitchen/dining room features an attractive Helmsley Cobham Blue kitchen with white granite worktops and a comprehensive range of high-end integrated appliances. The area is tiled with Highland Grey natural stone tiles. The bi-fold doors open to a large patio which runs along the front of the house, making for wonderful indoor/outdoor entertaining space.
Also on the ground floor is a utility room, with space for laundry appliances and built-in units providing ample storage.
From the welcoming entrance hallway, a bespoke oak staircase with glazed side panels leads up to a large landing area, with built-in cupboard space. The impressive landing is flooded with light from large windows either end, taking full advantage of the long distance vista. There is also an auto-venting Velux window above the stairwell.
To one side of the landing is a sophisticated principal suite, which benefits from a large dressing room and a generous and luxurious ensuite bathroom, with twin washbasins, a walk-in shower with a rain head over and a contemporary-style bath. The principal bedroom has apex windows and the most glorious outlook.
A corridor leads from the other side of the landing to four further double bedrooms, one with an ensuite bathroom and the others served by a stylish family shower room. An example of the property's thoughtful detailing is that in each bathroom/shower room there are modern mirrors featuring built-in lights.
Throughout the house, further evidence of the careful detailing includes sockets featuring USB chargers. The entire property benefits from underfloor heating and a high standard of insulation. Its green credentials include solar panels as well as a gas boiler. Safety and security features include PIR sensor outdoor lighting, CCTV and an alarm system.
Outside - Electric hardwood gates provide secure access to the property and open to a gravel parking and turning area in front of a spacious double garage. The garage has electric up-and-over doors and is equipped with an electric car charging point. From the side of the garage a metal staircase leads up to a thoughtfully-designed upper level, complete with an internet connection and sockets featuring USB chargers, so that it can be used as a home office.
The house stands in an elevated plot of 0.38 acre, backing onto fields and woodland. The gardens are to the front of the property and have been laid to lawn, with the retaining walls built from stone reclaimed from the site. There is a large area of Indian sandstone paved patio around the front and side of the house, a wonderful place to sit and enjoy the breathtaking views to the southwest and some spectacular sunsets.
