Llanellen, Abergavenny

Hendre Cwrt occupies an elevated semi-rural position above the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal, on the edge of the Brecon Beacons/Bannau Brycheiniog National Park. Set on the lower slopes of the Blorenge Mountain, the property enjoys a picturesque and peaceful setting within the beautiful, unspoiled countryside for which the area is renowned.

Hendre Cwrt is a beautiful home created from former stone cattle barn, converted in the early 1990s to create a spacious and versatile home full of character. Originally part of the Coldbrook Estate, Hendre Cwrt is set amongst a small cluster of three dwellings including the original farmhouse and two homes converted from the agricultural buildings. Hendre Cwrt has its own private driveway and the house is oriented so the principal elevations overlook the gardens and grounds, the other two dwellings are located to the rear allowing for Hendre Cwrt to have the comfort of neighbours whilst retaining maximum privacy. The initial conversion was sympathetically completed, retaining a wealth of interesting features and, unusually for a barn, high ceilings and generous double and triple aspect rooms. The present owners have further enhanced and improved the house which now offers a welcoming and inviting home with modern kitchen and bathrooms complementing the original period features, the house offers either one spacious home or could be configured to sub divide a ground floor annexe with its own entrance door. The house is complemented by the gardens and grounds which include a landscaped garden, an enclosed, level paddock, gently sloping paddock and a small vineyard which has produced an award winning wine.

The Property

The ground floor accommodation flows from the central reception hall featuring an impressive solid oak staircase and an oak floor and vaulted ceiling. From here, there is access to the dining room and sitting room. The sitting room is a striking room with double aspect windows and a double sided multi fuel burner stove set in a brick surround open to both the sitting room and the adjoining garden room. The garden room has double French doors opening to the garden.

...

The dining room enjoys views across the garden and accessed through a glazed door is a stone terrace perfect for enjoying dining outdoors. The farmhouse style kitchen/breakfast room provides a warm and welcoming heart to the home, the modern design combines a functional and aesthetically pleasing room combined with a rustic charm. A useful boot room with an external door is located adjacent to the kitchen and a separate utility room leads through to the rear inner hall.

Potential Annexe

From the inner hall, a door opens into the entrance hall/lobby of the potential self contained annexe, which benefits from its own front door. This area includes a sitting room, bedroom (presently used as a study) and a kitchen/winery, offering excellent scope for guest accommodation, multigenerational living, income potential or an area to enjoy hobbies and leisure time.

First Floor

Located beneath the main oak staircase is a useful storage area, the wide staircase with turned balustrade continues to the generous first floor landing. On the first floor is the fabulous principal bedroom suite with a vaulted ceiling, en-suite bathroom and large walk in wardrobe. There are three further bedrooms, all well proportioned and a contemporary shower/bathroom.

Second Floor

Rising from the fourth bedroom, at the far end of the house, is a staircase to the second floor where there is a substantial fitted dressing room and study/studio. This flexible space is perfect for an office/studio or a 'teenager's den' or an occasional guest bedroom.

Outside

The house is approached via its own private driveway, flanked by mature trees, lawns, a paddock and a small vineyard. There is a generous parking area with access to a substantial stone garage/workshop/studio. Spanning the width of the house is a stone terrace, a private and secluded place to enjoy the views across the grounds. The gardens and grounds are quite spectacular and include lawns, mature shrubs and trees, a vineyard, a vegetable garden, vine covered pergolas and an open fronted summer house with a decked area and water feature.
