Summary

This contemporary five bedroomed semi-detached family home built by Davies Homes in 2021 sits in an attractive, private setting in a small and exclusive development in the popular village of Llangattock, in the Bannau Brychieniog National Park. Favoured by both families and retirees alike, the village is sought after due to its proximity to woodland walks and trails along the Monmouthshire and Brecon canal, the primary school and the local village pub, all of which are walking distance from this home, not to mention its larger neighbour, Crickhowell, which lies just across the river bridge, moments away by car but equally walkable for those who enjoy being outdoors. Only 5 years old, this residence has been designed for families or couples looking for an energy efficient home, with its B rating helping to keep energy costs down and given its relative newness, this home is ready to move into and enjoy.

With a footprint of about 1769 ft2 (164 m2) arranged over three floors, this home was purchased off plan by the owners and was individually designed to create an adaptable configuration which will suit buyers needing extra bedroom space. Entered via a spacious hallway with tiled flooring and cloakroom facilities, a comfortable dual aspect living room offers pretty views over the garden to the front of the house. The hub of this home must be its generously sized open-plan kitchen/diner which is fitted with Sigma3 cabinets, including an island unit with breakfast bar seating, integrated appliances, and six fully glazed folding doors which open onto a small south westerly courtyard at the rear, enabling a great

deal of afternoon and evening light to flood into the area. Off the kitchen is a useful utility room with a door to the side of the house, just perfect when returning from muddy walks and gardening activities.

Upstairs, the five bedrooms are planned over two floors. The principal bedroom with en-suite and two bedrooms plus the family bathroom suite are on the first floor; and a staircase from the large landing area provides access to the second floor and two further bedrooms, one of which serves as a quiet study space for the current owners.

Outside, this family home occupies a corner plot on the development with an enclosed lawned garden to the front, an open area to the side, and a courtyard to the rear of the house. A driveway provides off road parking for two vehicle and leads to an attached garage with electric door.

Location

Location Summary

Llangattock is a favoured residential village set amongst the stunning scenery of the Bannau Brycheiniog - Brecon Beacons - National Park alongside the banks of the River Usk with the popular market town of Crickhowell lying just across the river bridge. The Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal passes through the village which is home to a thriving community and St Catwg’s Church, which is believed to be one of the oldest churches in Wales, dating from the 6th Century.

Winner of the Best High Street in Britain in the first Great British High Street Awards, Crickhowell and the
surrounding villages are highly regarded amongst the walking community and are a haven for both walkers and tourists alike. The town is famed for its family run and independent businesses including several grocers, a butcher, a delicatessen, a baker, Wales’s first zero waste shop, and a newsagent/post office. In addition, there are individual boutiques, cafes, a book shop which attracts famous authors to its doors, a florist, plus of course Cric, the tourist information centre.

Crickhowell also benefits from a dentist surgery, health centre, a garage, and the iconic Webbs hardware store. There are numerous public houses, gastro pubs and restaurants, and no description of Crickhowell would be complete without mentioning The Bear which has been serving customers since 1432 and stands in a prominent position at the head of the high street in the centre of this bustling town. The area is served for schools for all ages, both of which are fêted in both the local area and further afield too. Children enjoy the facilities of schools in both Llangattock and Crickhowell but do travel further afield to Christ College in Brecon and the Monmouth Haberdashers’ schools which are easily accessible.

For more comprehensive shopping and leisure facilities, the historic market town of Abergavenny is just 7 miles away and offers a wide selection of boutique style shops, grocery and newsagent stores, supermarkets, and many well-known high street shops. Abergavenny also hosts a market several
times a week. The town has its own cinema and leisure centre as well as eateries for evening entertainment. Abergavenny railway station has regular services into central London via Newport, whilst road links at the Hardwick roundabout give easy access to the motorway for Bristol, Birmingham, the Southwest and London and “A” routes for Monmouth, Hereford, Cwmbran, and Cardiff.
