Property Summary
This newly renovated former stone agricultural barn blends modern living, with the character and charm which has been retained within the building. Such features of interest include the exposed timbers and stone work. The ground floor comprises a tiled floored reception area with cloakroom leading off. A spacious kitchen with a range of cupboards complemented by oak wood work surfaces in a modern design and wall tiling. An integrated dishwasher has been fitted and there is space for a range style cooker with extractor. Plumbing has been installed to add a free-standing American style fridge freezer. The central island adds additional storage and work surface. For those informal dining occasions there is room for a breakfast table and chairs with views through the French doors across open fields. There is a separate utility area with plumbing for a washing machine and storage. The main reception room/family area is impressive with vaulted ceiling and dual aspect French doors which flood the room with light and provide views over the beautiful surrounding countryside. The contemporary log burner standing on a stone plinth in the corner of the room provides added cosiness for winter nights. Engineered oak wood flooring flows throughout the room and ground floor complementing the hardwood central staircase which makes a lovely feature. A second ground floor room could be a study/television room or bedroom 4 with a ground floor shower room adjoining. An additional room, with a separate entrance, would make an ideal office/studio/gym or guest bedroom en-suite. The whole of the ground floor benefits from the luxury of underfloor heating. On the first floor the master bedroom has the benefit of its own en-suite shower room, there are two further bedrooms and the family bathroom. The first floor has some interesting features with exposed timbers and a galleried landing with wooden balustrade.Full Details

Location
The hamlet of Welsh Newton lies circa 3.5 miles to North of the historic and pretty vibrant town of Monmouth. This pretty town is not only the County town with much significant history and beauty, but offers a wide variety of shopping facilities, with well-known supermarkets sitting alongside independent shops as well as other retailers and the weekly market. There is a good choice of education options within the area, from the well regarded Primary Schools to the two Haberdasher's Schools (and preparatory school) in Monmouth, as well as Monmouth Comprehensive School which has recently moved to a brand new, purpose built site. There are many dining options within an easy drive and these include country pubs and more formal restaurants. For the more energetic, there is a wide range of sporting facilities available including golf at the well regarded Rolls of Monmouth Golf Club, rowing at Monmouth Rowing Club and canoeing water sports on the river Wye at Symonds Yat.
The nearby A40 provides access to the M4 and in turn Cardiff and Bristol. In the other direction the A40 gives easy access to Ross on Wye and the M50/Midlands. Main line railways stations can be found in both Hereford and Abergavenny.
