Description

Plymouth House West is an exceptional Grade II listed semi-detached residence of immense character and distinction, extending to approximately 2,758 sq ft and occupying a prestigious position within the historic West End of Llanwit Major. Believed to originate from medieval times, this outstanding home has been sympathetically restored and comprehensively enhanced to an exacting standard, effortlessly blending architectural heritage with contemporary luxury. Benefiting from underfloor heating throughout all three floors, the property offers versatile and beautifully appointed accommodation ideally suited to modern family life.

Enjoying a tranquil edge-of-town setting, the property commands delightful views towards the landmark St Illtud's Church, whilst remaining within easy walking distance of the town centre, highly regarded schools, independent cafés, restaurants and Llanwit Major railway station, providing direct services to Cardiff and Bridgend. The stunning Heritage Coast is also within easy reach, further enhancing the appeal of this remarkable home.

A wealth of period features have been carefully preserved throughout, including exposed stonework, stained-glass detailing and the original medieval staircase, all seamlessly complemented by high-specification contemporary finishes.

The welcoming Entrance Hall sets the tone with flagstone flooring, exposed timbers and an attractive stone display recess. The elegant Drawing Room is a superb reception space, featuring high ceilings, shuttered windows with window seating overlooking the gardens, and a wood-burning stove set within an impressive stone fireplace. A decorative stone recess incorporates a striking leaded and stained-glass internal window, further emphasising the property's rich heritage.

The adjoining Study provides an ideal home office, complete with shuttered window, window seat and useful storage. The Inner Hallway showcases the original medieval staircase and leads to the magnificent Sitting Room, a wonderfully atmospheric dual-aspect space with exposed stone walls, flagstone flooring and an impressive fireplace housing a wood-burning stove.

Opening from the sitting room and study, the Dining Room is perfectly designed for both formal entertaining and family gatherings, featuring exposed beams, a vaulted ceiling and French doors opening onto the courtyard garden.

The heart of the home is undoubtedly the outstanding bespoke Kitchen/Breakfast Room, beautifully crafted with Shaker-style cabinetry, pantry storage, premium work surfaces and integrated seating. Designed with both practicality and style in mind, the space provides room for an Everhot range and a full suite of appliances, with a stable door opening directly onto the courtyard garden.

Above the kitchen lies a highly versatile Guest Suite/Bedroom Five, offering flexibility as guest accommodation, a studio or a private work-from-home space. This impressive room benefits from skylights, a freestanding roll-top bath, adjoining cloakroom and direct garden access via a charming stone bridge.

The first floor continues to impress with oak flooring, exposed beams and high ceilings and underfloor heating throughout. The luxurious Principal Bedroom enjoys a dual-aspect outlook with countryside views, while Bedroom Two is another generous double bedroom with views towards the church.

Serving this floor is an exceptional bespoke family bathroom suite, complemented by a dedicated dressing area with fitted wardrobes and storage. Beautifully appointed, the bathroom features a freestanding bath, walk-in rainfall shower and twin wash basins, creating a sanctuary of comfort and elegance.

The second floor offers further stylish accommodation centred around a charming Gallery Landing, with exposed timbers and vaulted ceilings. Bedrooms Three and Four are both generous doubles, enjoying characterful features, served by a beautifully finished Shower Room incorporating a walk-in rainfall shower and contemporary fittings.

Externally, Plymouth House West sits within approximately 0.8 acres of landscaped grounds, providing a wonderful sense of privacy and space. A substantial bedrock driveway offers parking for numerous vehicles, together with an EV charging point and access to a garage/workshop. Mature lawns, established trees and attractive planting enhance the frontage, while the rear gardens provide an idyllic setting for outdoor entertaining and relaxation. An enclosed courtyard garden leads via an elegant wrought-iron spiral staircase to elevated lawned gardens with seating area, mature shrubs and flower borders and a garden store.

A rare opportunity to acquire a truly exceptional period residence, where centuries of history combine effortlessly with refined contemporary living in one of the Vale of Glamorgan's most sought-after locations.
