7 Bedrooms Cottage for sale in Undy, Caldicot NP26 | £ 800,000

Property Description

Old Cross Farm is a character cottage built in, or around 1790 and was a major farm in the village of Undy. The farmhouse was restored to modern standards in the late 1980's and was purchased by its current owners in 1990. The barn and milking parlour was converted into a two storey addition to the farmhouse in the late 1990's, currently occupied as two separate apartments. The building could easily be put back as a two storey house, affording a very large accommodation. Old Cross Farm is so named because the small, now quiet, cross roads upon which it sits, formed the major route between Chepstow, Caldicot and Newport.

Located probably in the most prominent older part of Undy village with beautiful open countryside on your door step and local amenities, including a Post office, Doctors and Dentists surgeries and a variety of shops are all within close proximity of Magor village square. There are two excellent primary schools located in the village with secondary schooling in nearby Caldicot and Chepstow and private schools in Newport, Chepstow, Monmouth and Bristol.

For the sports enthusiasts, the Ryder Cup venue of the Celtic Manor Resort is a short drive away and Undy offers Rugby, Football, Tennis and Cricket clubs. The local countryside will also be an attraction for many, and the property is also close to Wentwood Forest, The Wye Valley, Severn Estuary and Magor Nature Reserve and site of Special Scientific Interest are on the doorstep.

This lovely location is ideally placed for motorway travelling with junction 23A of the M4 which brings Newport, Cardiff and Bristol close by. Bristol and Cardiff airports are also readily accessible and there are direct trains from Newport and Severn Tunnel Junction to London, Bristol and Cardiff.

The accommodation provides plenty of sociable space for family including the heart of the home kitchen breakfast room, and a very characterful and generous open sitting room on two slightly different levels with the lounge area having a very attractive stone brick lined built fireplace and chimney breast with Jotul woodburner ideal for those cold winter evenings sitting by the fireside. The dining area makes for perfect more formal family gatherings. There is a cloakroom, utility room and rear hall leading out into the enclosed garden. On the first floor you will find four bedrooms, three of which are good size doubles with the master bedroom having a en suite shower room. A family bathroom with a 'Pinafarina' designer jacuzzi bath and good size landing can also be found.

For those looking for dual family occupation or for owners looking to derive a separate income the property offers a detached dwelling currently arranged as two separate apartments. The ground floor apartment offers a very spacious open plan living, dining kitchen with two bedrooms, the second bedroom being accessed from the first. The first floor apartment has its own private door at the side of the property and offers a fitted kitchen, a double bedroom, shower room and a lovely sitting room with door that leads out onto a delightful enclosed balcony with walled and railed surround enjoying views of surrounding countryside.
