The Dardy, Crickhowell, NP8

Enjoying an idyllic position within the picturesque hamlet of Dardy and within walking distance of the Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal, this charming stone-fronted semi-detached cottage offers two double bedrooms and a superb blend of character and contemporary living. Beautifully presented throughout, the accommodation features a stylish modern kitchen, a contemporary bathroom suite and attractive plantation window shutters, all thoughtfully designed to complement the property's original character.  Exposed stone walls and oak beams serve as a reminder of the cottage's heritage, lending warmth and charm to every room. Outside, the property's stunning setting is every bit as impressive, with far-reaching views sweeping across the Usk Valley towards the dramatic landscape of the Black Mountains in the Bannau Brycheiniog National Park.

Inside, an entrance porch with a large fitted utility cupboard opens into an entrance hallway with a useful space for storing walking boots and cloaks.  A door leads into an impressive open plan lounge / diner / kitchen which takes over much of the ground floor of this comfortable home, but given its arrangement into distinctive reception spaces separated by stone pillars and walling, feels neither unduly large or overpowering.  The lounge area is cosy with a stone fireplace housing a wood stove. The wood flooring runs throughout the room which opens into a dining area and the kitchen.  Both these spaces have doors opening onto the sun terrace with its impressive views providing a scenic backdrop to family living or entertaining.  The modern shaker style kitchen has integrated appliances and an island unit with breakfast bar seating.

The neutral décor and chic detailing continue upstairs.  The landing is bathed in light from its windows and is fitted with a wall of wardrobes providing a great deal of storage for the property.  The two bedrooms are placed at the front of the cottage with both enjoying fabulous views, with one of the rooms having a cast iron fireplace and a deep storage cupboard.  The four piece bathroom suite will be a welcome relief from a busy day enjoying the great outdoors.  The contemporary suite is fitted with a freestanding bath and a large walk-in shower, so you can take your pick on which type of bathing you prefer, and you certainly won’t be disappointed with the view.

Outside, there are front and rear gardens.  The gardens are planned for maximum exposure to the countryside outlook with a timber decked sun terrace at the front providing a great spot to either soak up the sun or the view.  There is also a small sloping garden to the rear of the cottage and off road parking for up to two vehicles.  This home is ready to move into and with no forward chain, you can commence enjoying the scenery from its garden sooner than you might think!

Front Garden

Approached from the rear of the cottage, the property has a shared right of access with the neighbour via a lane onto a short path which leads to the front door and opens onto an expansive timber decked sun terrace which adjoins the dining room and the kitchen of the cottage. The terrace is enclosed by timber railings and affords breathtaking scenic views across the Usk Valley towards the Black Mountains which surround this picturesque community. A few steps lead down into the lower garden which is mainly grassed with shrubbery borders and a further seating area.

Rear Garden

The property is approached from its rear via a lane serving the properties along the terrace. Behind the parking area is a sloping area of grassed garden.

Parking - Off street

The lane provides vehicular access onto a private off road parking area for the cottage
