A beautifully presented and sympathetically converted detached stone barn located within a small development of barns of the former Cilwych Farm. The property is believed by the sellers to have origins rooted in the 15th century and yet despite its conversion has managed to retain a genuine ambience of these period origins which is noticeable as soon as you walk through the door. Arranged over three floors and with a split level ground floor, the design of the barn allows for a huge amount of natural light to fill the building with the inclusion of full height glazing to the original barn door and multiple French doors giving access to the outside space.

INTRODUCTION
The imaginative layout provides excellent living accommodation which includes four reception rooms, two of which have fireplaces with log burners, a beautiful farmhouse style kitchen, four/five bedrooms plus four bath/shower rooms, a utility room and ground floor cloakroom. The gardens, which are extremely private, enjoy a manicured lawn and two separate sun terraces to the rear whilst there is extensive parking and a charming courtyard complemented by beautiful flower borders to the front.

SITUATION
The property is located in a small hamlet amidst the backdrop of some of the most beautiful scenery the Bannau Brycheiniog National Park has to offer and yet is only about a mile from the small village of Llangynidr, just across the Usk river bridge, which is home to a good range of rural facilities including a community primary school, active village hall, pubs and restaurant, convenience store and petrol station. Despite its rural location the property is less than a mile from main A40 link road and is within easy reach of the surrounding towns of Abergavenny (12 miles), Brecon (10 miles) and Crickhowell (6 miles) where a more diverse range of schooling and shopping facilities are available. Abergavenny also benefits from a railway station and has regular services into central London via Newport, with good road links giving access to the motorway for Bristol, Bristol Airport, Bath, Birmingham, the South West and London and "A" routes for Monmouth, Hereford, and Cardiff.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    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
