In a superb elevated hilltop setting commanding spectacular views over the Vale of Usk, a beautifully restored Listed Folly featured on Channel 4s Grand Designs. Dating from around the 1700's, and originally a stone built hunting lodge for the Sheriff of Monmouth, the restoration has been combined with cutting edge design via a new glass extension to create what is now a wonderful home.
OUTSIDE are formal gardens with panoramic views, a valuable range of outbuildings and stables and a detached leisure building with indoor swimming pool. There are some 24 acres including old woodland and miles of walks and rides in the surrounding countryside.
Although rural and approached off a small country lane the property is also easily accessible. It is under 3 miles from the M4 at The Coldra (Celtic Manor) so is easily accessible to all centres of South East Wales, Cardiff and Bristol. London trains are from Newport or Bristol Parkway, which is just over 20 miles away. There are excellent shopping, sporting and educational facilities close at hand.
Outside - THE FORMAL GARDENS WITH STUNNING VIEWS
DETACHED LEISURE BUILDING WITH INDOOR SWIMMING POOL
The approach is off the country lane via electrically operated security gates onto a sweeping drive that encircles a wonderful old oak tree. The front gardens are partly walled and comprise wide areas of lawn with wide stone steps to the impressive front entrance. To the rear are further gardens and a wide westerly terrace, overlooking the Vale of Usk, and probably the best of the incredible views. Close by is the BOILER ROOM with Biomass boiler. A short distance across the lawn is a LARGE DETCHED LEISURE BUILDING with indoor swimming pool and changing facilities.
THE STABLE BLOCK, MANEGE, PADDOCK & WOODLAND
Off the drive, and backing onto a large paddock, is an excellent MODERN STABLE with tack room, and access to the OUTDOOR MANEGE. There is excellent hacking on the doorstep with miles of rides and walks in the surrounding lanes, and nearby Wentwood Forest. The remaining grounds comprise a lovely area of ancient woodland.
IN ALL SOME 24 ACRES

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on January 13, 2022
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
