Description

A fine example of a Victorian period house built circa 1870 and with much character and many of the original features. This substantial attached house is cleverly orientated to ensure privacy and is not overlooked with extensive gardens to the front and sides. To one side of the house is a private south facing terrace with the most stunning view towards The Blorenge Mountain. Located in a prime residential area on the Western side of Abergavenny town, this period houses in the area were originally built for the senior managers of the railways and iron works, in more recent years, the Western side of Abergavenny has been favoured by buyers in the medical profession (ideal for the proximity of Nevill Hall Hospital) and business people, both working locally and commuting to the cities of Bristol, Cardiff, Hereford and London. The Western side of Abergavenny is an ideal location for access to road and rail links, the house is within walking distance of a well regarded local primary school and a new 'super school' with leisure centre. The house requires updating and modernising and offers generously proportioned rooms with many original features including tessellated tiled floors, stripped floorboards, ornate plaster cornicing, ceiling roses, period fireplaces and an impressive staircase with turned handrail and newel posts, original doors, and the wonderfully high ceilings typical of a property of this era. While the house would now benefit from some investment, it presents an exciting opportunity for purchasers to reconfigure the layout and create a beautiful home, in a sought after location, to suit their needs and the requirements of modern day living.

The Property

Enter through the entrance door into a welcoming hallway, where the striking staircase with its turned handrail and newel posts, rises to the first floor and immediately sets the tone for the character found throughout the house. Positioned to the side of the property, the sitting room is a beautifully light space with four large windows that flood the room with natural light. A Minster style fireplace forms an attractive focal point, complemented by the generous proportions typical of a house of this era. Centrally located, the snug offers a warm and inviting atmosphere with its exposed wooden floorboards. This versatile room works equally well as a cosy retreat or an additional reception space.

...

Accessed from both the kitchen and the snug, the ground floor sun room provides a generous footprint for refurbishment or replacement. This bright, flexible space is perfect for dining, relaxing, or simply enjoying views across the mature rear garden. The kitchen has excellent proportions with ample space for a dining table, the Rayburn is both useful and adds character to the room. A wooden staircase rises from the kitchen to a first floor, generously proportioned studio with the most magnificent view of the Blorenge Mountain, this room would make a perfect reception room in which to relax and enjoy the view, a first floor dining room with access from the kitchen or a studio/hobby room. The ground floor is completed by a separate pantry/boiler room, shower room and on the lower ground floor, a cellar.

First Floor

The attractive, original staircase with turned handrail and balustrade rises from the entrance hall to the first floor landing. One of the interesting feature of the staircase is a built in, ornate mirror at half landing level, it provides décor and intrigue. As with the ground floor, the first floor offers space, light and retains period features. There are four spacious bedrooms and a bathroom with a cast iron bath. The first floor could be reconfigured to incorporate another bathroom/en-suite.

Loft Room

A pull down fitted loft ladder provides access to a spacious loft room with Velux style windows. This loft space could be used for storage or perhaps an office or additional bedroom space subject to any planning and building regulation requirements.

Second Loft

A second, smaller loft area, provides further storage space and again has Velux windows. Subject to any planning and building regulations and a the installation of a staircase, this space has potential for a small office.

Driveway and Garage

The property is approached via a pedestrian gate from Western Road, with vehicular access through double wrought iron gates, leading to the driveway and garage, from Belgrave Road. The garage does require refurbishment/replacement. The driveway offers off road parking.

Outside

The generous gardens extend the full width of the house and lie predominately to the front of the house. To one side is a private garden with a fishpond and mature plants, to the other side a secluded and private south facting courtyard with views towards the Blorenge Mountain. The main garden is shielded from the two roads by mature trees, is predominately laid to lawn with planted borders. A wooden summer house is located to one corner. Adjoining the house is a patio area. The gardens have been thoughtfully designed to offer privacy, seclusion and tranquility.
