Description
Dating back to 1750, this exquisite home perfectly combines historic charm with modern comfort.
A gated, enclosed driveway, flanked by natural stone walls, invites you into this haven of tranquillity. The front garden, a tapestry of lush lawn and vibrant flora, including wisteria, an apple tree and camellia, sets the stage for the beauty that awaits within.
Crossing the threshold, you're welcomed by a hallway that perfectly encapsulates the essence of this home. Original parquet flooring, lovingly maintained, flows beneath your feet, while neutral walls provide a fresh canvas for your own style. A conveniently placed WC adds practicality to this charming entrance.
The heart of this home unfolds behind a ledge and brace oak door into a stunning dining room. Here, the parquet flooring continues, creating a seamless flow between spaces. Bathed in natural light from a generous window, this versatile area easily accommodates both intimate family dinners and larger gatherings. A staircase, rich in character, beckons you to explore the upper floor.
Adjacent to the dining room, accessed through elegant double doors with panel glazing, lies a spacious living room that truly captures the essence of country living. The centrepiece of this cosy retreat is a magnificent stone fireplace, complete with an oak beam mantle and slate hearth housing a multi-fuel stove. On cooler evenings, imagine curling up with a good book on the window seat, basking in the warmth of the fire while enjoying breathtaking views of the garden and mountains beyond.
The kitchen seamlessly blends rustic charm with modern functionality. Flooded with natural light from dual double-glazed windows and a garden-facing door, it features cream shaker-style cabinetry complemented by warm oak worktops and a Belfast sink adding a touch of country elegance. The kitchen’s ample space accommodates a range of integrated appliances including a dishwasher, washing machine, and electric oven with gas hob. There is a dedicated space for a fridge-freezer, and a breakfast bar offers casual dining for two.
Upstairs, three beautifully appointed bedrooms with plush new carpeting and the family bathroom await.
The generously proportioned master bedroom provides beautiful countryside views. With fitted ledge and brace wardrobes as well as space for additional furniture, this room is a true sanctuary for relaxation. The second bedroom, equally charming, also features a fitted ledge and brace wardrobe and stunning views that never grow old. Even the third bedroom, though cosier, provides a versatile space perfect for a child's room, dressing room or home office.
The family bathroom, recently refitted, is fully tiled with crisp white metro tiles and accented with chrome fixtures. It features a bathtub with shower over, WC, chrome towel radiator, and well thought out alcove storage, blending practicality with style.
Step outside, and the beauty and charm of Ty Gwenarth extends into the thoughtfully landscaped garden that wraps around the property, offering a series of inviting spaces to enjoy throughout the changing seasons. Multiple seating areas, including a lush lawn and a stone-chipped patio, provide the perfect spots to follow the sun or retreat to the shade as desired. Mature plants and shrubs enhance the sense of privacy, creating a tranquil oasis, while a large raised bed awaits the aspiring gardener, ready for cultivating homegrown fruits and vegetables.
For added convenience, the spacious garage, equipped with an electric up-and-over door, electricity, and lighting, offers ample storage and the versatility to be used as a large workshop.
The property's crowning glory is undoubtedly its location. Perched in Govilon village on the lower banks of the Blorenge Mountain in the Usk Valley, it offers unparalleled access to nature. The Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal and a section of the national cycle route 46 run nearby, perfect for leisurely walks or invigorating bike rides. Despite its rural charm, a local shop, pub, outdoor activity centre, and village hall are all within easy reach.
For more urban amenities, the historic market town of Abergavenny is less than 3 miles away. Here, you'll find a vibrant community with independent shops, supermarkets, a theatre, a cinema, a hospital, schools, and a mainline train station, ensuring you're well-connected to the wider world.
Ty Gwenarth offers more than just a home; but also a lifestyle. It offers the rare opportunity to immerse yourself in the tranquillity of country living while maintaining easy access to modern conveniences.
