Old Hereford Road, Pantygelli, Abergavenny, NP7

Bracken House is a unique, individually designed eco bungalow situated within the attractive grounds of Triley Court. Built using locally sourced, hand-dressed stone and red cedar cladding, its contemporary appearance blends naturally into its historic and picturesque surroundings.

Entering through a private courtyard creates a memorable approach to the house and allows natural light to flood into the accommodation. Inside, the property extends to approximately 1,325 sq ft and has been thoughtfully designed to feel spacious and light without being overly large. Polished concrete floors and clean architectural lines are softened by a Douglas Fir ceiling and feature lighting.

At the heart of the house is an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and split level living space. The kitchen boasts plenty of cupboard space, complimented with Quartz worktops, a breakfast bar and integrated appliances including an oven, hob, fridge/freezer and dishwasher. Amazing views of the Skirrid can be enjoyed from the kitchen, which together with the dining area provide ample room for entertaining. The adjoining living area enjoys wonderful garden views, with glazed doors opening directly onto the decking. There are three comfortable double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room, built-in storage and glazed doors opening onto the garden. The remaining bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, while a particularly generous utility room provides excellent additional storage and practical working space.

Energy-conscious features include roof-mounted solar panels, triple-glazed windows and underfloor heating. The building’s thermal mass has also been designed to help retain warmth during the winter while keeping the interior cooler in summer.

The gardens have been significantly improved and are now a particular feature of Bracken House. Natural stone walls and steps connect the different areas, adding character while making excellent use of the gently changing levels. Directly off the house is a large decked south facing terrace leading onto a level lawn, enclosed by a natural stone wall and established shrub borders which provide an excellent degree of privacy. At the bottom of the garden is a useful wooden storage shed. Overlooking the lawn is a further decked seating area incorporating a sunken solid-fuel hot tub, an ideal place to relax, entertain or simply sit and enjoy the wonderful view towards the Skirrid.

Beyond are further generous areas of lawn, together with a small orchard, established fruit bushes and a substantial greenhouse. In all, the private plot extends to approximately 0.4 acres and offers an appealing balance of space, privacy and manageability. There is allocated off-road parking for three vehicles, together with additional visitor parking within the development.

Triley Court is an exclusive development centred around a stunning Grade II listed Georgian manor house, positioned on the lower slopes of the Sugar Loaf Mountain within the beautiful Bannau Brycheiniog National Park.
