Full Details for 6 Bedroom Detached for sale in Caldicot, NP26 :

Built as a manor house in the 16th Century and extended a hundred years later, Penylan Farm is today a magnificent, unique house that combines the comforts of 21st Century living with charming original features. The result is a spacious family home of great character and comfort.As soon as the present owners stepped through the great oak door and saw through to the living room with its superb inglenook fireplace, they knew this was to be their new home. Complete with bread oven, salt store, enormous stone lintel, and set into a wall of exposed stone, it is the most impressive feature in a house full of attractive period attributes. The house has a pleasing choice of reception rooms. The dramatic lounge is a restful room, perfect for entertaining, whilst the family room is ideal for relaxed down time, and watching TV. It also has an inglenook and with a fire glowing makes a warm, winter sanctuary. The beamed dining room to the rear of the house has a definite timeless atmosphere and the original barred window is always a good conversation piece.The Aga warm kitchen is the hub of daily life and where informal meals are eaten. It has a dual aspect with views across the rolling Monmouthshire countryside; however the conservatory is where you gain maximum pleasure from the panorama of soft green fields and hills that stretch into the distance. It is an all purpose room for eating, reading and simply sitting to savour the idyllic surroundings.The house is most hospitable and can accommodate a large number of people. Extra provisions can be stored in the walk in pantry and wine in the cellar. Overnight guests are no problem as there are five bedrooms on the first floor, one with an added small room set above the porch. There is one large and dramatically beamed room on the second floor, plus a further room positioned above the porch, which is currently used as an office.Lawns sweep round the side and back of the house and then blend into the countryside. It is a much used garden, where up to thirty children and their parents have celebrated Birthdays, and where you can walk the dogs across the two acres and appreciate the natural world around you, spotting the birds of prey that wheel overhead. There is plenty of storage in the ‘man shed’ and above the oak frame garage.The house has great privacy, but is close to Magor village with its shops and pubs. There is choice of towns within a short distance for work and leisure. Caldicot, Newport, Chepstow and Monmouth are approximately a thirty minute drive away, and the M4 motorway allows easy access to Cardiff and Bristol. The present owners feel they have enjoyed the best of all worlds and have loved living at Penylan Farm. They have also appreciated being a small part of the long history of the house, and hope that the next owners will also experience its welcoming warmth. It is a home they will sorely miss.
