Outside

The property is set back from the A40 on a junction with a minor road to Gilwern. Access to the front porch is through ornate metal railings and over a gravelled courtyard. A forecourt to the rear provides generous turning and parking space for numerous cars and leads through to the generous pretty garden. Mature trees and well-established borders enclose the garden which is predominantly laid to lawn with a raised terrace area offering plenty of space for al fresco dining. At the end of the garden is an additional seating area offering westerly views across the Usk Valley. The garden has a herb garden and interesting Laburnum tree. The vendors refer to the garden as 'the garden which keeps on giving' with its abundance of colour and seasonal plants. There are two wooden sheds, one with power, and a wooden summerhouse. The garden is shielded from the road by a stone wall.
