5 bed detached house for sale

Parc Close, Llangybi Usk NP15

A substantial five-bedroom detached home set in approximately half an acre in the sought-after village of Llangybi. It’s a property that offers real flexibility in how it can be used, with a layout that suits modern family life but also gives you options depending on your needs.

As you approach, the property is set back with a block paved driveway providing parking for multiple vehicles, along with access to the double garage.

You enter into a large and impressive hallway, which really sets the tone. A bright space with floor-to-ceiling glazed windows looking towards the lounge and out to the views beyond. From here you have access to the double garage, stairs up to the first floor, and routes through to the main living areas and ground floor bedrooms.

The ground floor is where this property really comes into its own in terms of flexibility. There are currently four bedrooms on this level, although how they’re used can easily change depending on what you need. One of the rooms has French doors opening out to the rear garden, which makes it ideal as a bedroom, guest room or even a home office or study if you work from home.

There’s also a section of the house that was originally two separate bedrooms but has been opened up into one large space. At the moment it’s used as a music room, but it could just as easily be another lounge, games room, or split back into two bedrooms if required. That’s one of the real strengths here-you’re not locked into one way of living.

The family bathroom on the ground floor has been refitted and is finished to a good standard. It includes a large double shower cubicle, a modern vanity unit with an inset wash hand basin, a low-level WC, tiled flooring, and a heated towel rail.

Moving through, you come to the main living space, which has a really good flow. The kitchen, dining area, and lounge all connect in a way that works well for everyday life, a great open plan entertaining space.

The kitchen is fitted with high gloss units and offers plenty of storage. There’s an inset fridge freezer and a hob with a central extractor positioned on the divide between the kitchen and dining area, which helps define the space without closing it off. It’s a sociable layout, great when entertaining or having family time.

The dining area sits just off the kitchen and has tiled flooring, making it practical as well as easy to maintain. From here, French doors open out onto a side decked seating area. This is a great spot for a morning coffee or somewhere to sit in the warmer months.

The dining space then leads into the main lounge. This layout works well as it gives you different zones without breaking everything up into separate rooms.

The main lounge is a comfortable and well-proportioned space with parquet flooring and a log burner as a focal point. It’s the kind of room that works just as well in winter as it does in summer. There are also French doors from here leading out to another decked area, again making the most of the connection between inside and outside.

Off the kitchen, there’s a large utility room which adds a lot of practicality. There’s good storage in here, along with a useful Jack and Jill cupboard that connects through to the hallway-a simple feature but one that makes day-to-day living easier. There’s also a door from the utility room out to the side of the property, which is handy for coming in from the garden, a great boot room and a downstairs WC located off the inner hallway.

Upstairs, there is an impressive master suite. This is a genuinely spacious room with plenty of storage and a stunning outlook. French doors open out to the rear with a Juliet balcony, allowing you to take in the views over the garden and the mountains beyond. It’s a calm, private space, set away from the rest of the house.

The ensuite is an impressive and well-fitted space. It includes a modern bath, a separate shower cubicle, a large vanity unit with inset basin, and a WC with a concealed cistern. All finished with a tiled flooring and a heated towel rail, and again the views from here are a real bonus.

Outside is where this property really stands apart. The plot is around half an acre, and it’s been designed over the years to make the most of the space.

To the side, there’s a large area that includes a substantial shed and multiple levels of seating areas. There are gravelled steps, different zones to sit and relax, and a pond with a water feature, which adds a sense of peace.

To the rear, there are a number of decked and patio areas, giving you options depending on the time of day and how you want to use the space. There are feature steps leading to the large lawned area, the garden overall has a really good mix of structure and planting. A pathway moves up through the garden back to the side sitting area.

In the summer, the property really comes into its own. There are mature shrubs and bushes throughout, a well-established and beautiful garden. It’s private, usable, and clearly been well thought out over the years. There’s also a gate providing access out to the rear.

Another key feature is the solar panels on the roof, which currently generate a yearly income.

The property sits in a strong position within Llangybi, offering wonderful rural surroundings. The village itself lies just a short distance from Usk, which is around 3 miles away and provides everyday amenities, independent shops, and a well-regarded community feel.

For a wider range of facilities, both Monmouth, Cwmbran and Abergavenny are within easy reach. Abergavenny, often referred to as the “Gateway to Wales, ” offers a full range of shops, restaurants, and leisure facilities, along with access to the Brecon Beacons and surrounding countryside.

For commuting, the property is well placed for road links. The nearby A449 connects quickly to the M4 motorway, giving straightforward access to Newport, Cardiff, and Bristol. Access to the wider motorway network is also convenient via the M50 and A40, making travel towards the Midlands and beyond practical.

The area is well known for its extremely popular schools at both primary and comprehensive level, in Usk and Monmouth. School buses are provided for ease.

Overall, it’s a location that works well whether you’re looking for a quieter setting or need reliable connections for commuting, with a good choice of towns all within a short drive
