Castle Rise, Llanvaches, Caldicot

Llanvaches, in the historic county of Monmouthshire, lies roughly midway between Newport and the market town of Chepstow.

It is a popular village with an active community life centred on the church hall. There's a children's play park, football pitch and a choice of country pubs within a short drive. The nearest shop/Post Office is in the nearby village of Caerwent, around two miles away. Llanvaches is nestled beneath Wentwood Forest, said to be the largest ancient woodland in Wales, which provides for excellent walking, mountain biking and hacking.

Of local historical interest is Penhow Castle, which claims to be the oldest inhabited castle in Wales. Caldicot Castle and the Roman village of Caerwent are nearby and slightly further afield, in the beautiful Wye Valley, is impressive Tintern Abbey. There are also excellent road links to the M4, for commuting to Bristol or Cardiff.

The property is being sold with the benefit of no onward chain, and offers spacious 5-bedroom accommodation with well-proportioned reception rooms, including a study. There is off road parking for 4 + cars and a double garage, the beautifully established gardens total approx just over a quarter of an acre and should be viewed to be appreciated.

STEP INSIDE: - A welcoming entrance porch leads into a spacious reception hallway, an impressive introduction to the home, enhanced by a galleried landing above. From here, doors radiate to all principal ground floor rooms, while a staircase rises to the first floor. The cloakroom is neatly appointed with a contemporary white two-piece suite.

The property offers three versatile reception rooms, ideal for modern living. Currently, one is arranged as a generous front-facing study - perfect for remote working or alternatively a cosy family room - benefiting from pleasant countryside views and a useful shelved storage cupboard. The main living room is well proportioned and equally enjoys a front aspect, offering ample space for a variety of furniture layouts. Its focal point is an inset gas fire set within an attractive brick fireplace, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Double doors open through to the dining room, another spacious reception area easily accommodating a full-sized dining table. From here, French doors lead into a charming sun room, a light-filled space overlooking the established gardens with direct access outside.

The kitchen, positioned to the rear, is both modern and practical, featuring tiled flooring, inset spot lighting, and a comprehensive range of matt fronted base and wall units complemented by marble-effect work surfaces. Integrated appliances include a double oven, four-ring halogen hob with canopy extractor, dishwasher, and fridge freezer. A built-in breakfast bar provides a relaxed spot for informal dining, while dual windows allow natural light to fill the room.

Completing the ground floor is a utility room fitted with matching units, offering additional storage and plumbing for appliances. It also provides convenient access to the rear garden and an internal door through to the garage.

Ascending to the first floor, a spacious landing provides access to all rooms and enhances the sense of light and openness, complete with a galleried aspect overlooking the hallway below. There is dual loft access, along with a useful built-in storage cupboard which also houses the hot water tank.

The accommodation comprises five bedrooms, four of which are generous doubles, each enjoying pleasant views over the gardens, with the front-facing rooms benefiting further from far-reaching countryside vistas. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive in size and is complemented by a beautifully refitted and spacious ensuite, featuring a freestanding bath for a touch of luxury.

The guest bedroom also benefits from its own ensuite, fitted with a three-piece white suite including a shower enclosure. All four double bedrooms offer the added advantage of built-in storage, while the fifth bedroom - currently arranged as a dressing room - could readily serve as a single bedroom if required.

The family bathroom is fitted with a three-piece suite, including a bath with shower attachment, providing practical accommodation for a busy household.

Outside - The gardens are a standout feature of the property and truly need to be seen to be fully appreciated. Extending to just over a quarter of an acre, they have been thoughtfully designed and lovingly maintained, with mature planting that ensures colour and interest throughout the seasons. Well-stocked borders, established shrubs, and a variety of trees frame the space beautifully, while multiple seating areas are perfectly positioned to make the most of the surrounding countryside views and all-day sunshine.

Set on a generous corner plot, the gardens wrap around the property and are predominantly laid to neatly manicured lawns, complemented by a central planter and carefully tended beds. The space is well enclosed by a combination of fencing and natural hedging, offering both privacy and a sense of tranquillity within this quiet cul-de-sac setting.

To the front, a paviour driveway provides off-road parking for four or more vehicles and leads to a double garage with an electric door, along with convenient pedestrian access directly into the utility room. Altogether, the outdoor space offers an ideal balance of practicality, privacy, and scenic charm.
