Hidden down a quiet country lane, at the end of a sweeping driveway, this
impressive five - bed, detached country home is an architect designed, bespoke
contemporary masterpiece built in 2013, surrounded by 14 acres of land and
boasting spectacular views of Llandegfedd Reservoir.
The garden and extended grounds are an enchanted space bursting with a myriad
of trees, shrubs and wildlife, all easily appreciated from the vast garden
terrace that hugs the house.
Called Yew Tree Farm, it's a home for partying as well as relaxing, with vast
social spaces inside easily able to accommodate large gatherings of family and
friends.
The huge central hallway with impressive double - height galleried landing space
is a room in its own right and leads to a massive kitchen diner that's home to
a gigantic island unit that will surely delight the cook.
There's bifold doors out to the terrace as well as another mezzanine landing
in this heart of the home' space before it flows into a cosy snug.
Add a huge living room with dual aspect bifold doors, a home office, utility
room and two cloakrooms within the ground floor layout before wandering
upstairs to discover five bedrooms and three bathrooms.
The principal bedroom suite is a total stunner, offering a dressing room and
luxury ensuite but also a private balcony accessed via a wall of bifold doors.
But if you do have to drag yourself away from that incredible balcony then the
property is closer to amenities than the idyllic location might suggest.
The country lanes get you to the main road to head south to Newport, to the
east less than five miles away you'll discover the pretty town of Usk, or head
north to the popular market town of Abergavenny, famous as a haven for food
and drink lovers. Closer still is Pontypool and Cwmbran to satisfy the need
for everyday facilities and access to the Transport for Wales train services.
But the main draw of this home is the beautiful reservoir, which can be a
constant source of creating memories having fun on the water while trying out
new activities, playing golf at the waterside Woodlake Golf Club, or just
relaxing near the bank totally captivated by the location and the idyllic
views.
**Step Inside: - ** \ - Step inside this bespoke architecturally designed dream
home and you are instantly greeted by impressively spacious rooms, cascades of
light and an effortless flow between spaces created by thoughtful design.
As the luxury abode is a new building, constructed in 2013, it has been
created to optimise the connection to the garden and the outstanding views of
the reservoir, as well as providing a mix of social spaces and more intimate
rooms to perfectly fit modern living.
Every grand home should have a breathtaking first impression that lasts, and
Yew Tree Farm certainly does that. Behind the front door is a substantial,
double - height entrance hall that can boast a galleried landing above and
masses of space inside.
It's a hallway to admire, with character coming from exposed stone walls, a
fireplace, and the stunning bespoke staircase and glass panelled galleried
landing. But it's also more than just a place to instantly impress visitors,
it has space to become whatever a new owner desires - family TV room, a home
office and library, a formal dining room, or even a music room with ample
space for a grand piano.
But the entrance hall is just the start of the awe - inspiring spaces this huge
and handsome contemporary home can offer.
To the left is the kitchen diner that is the social hub of the home and it's
another spectacular space that can boast its own double - height design with a
galleried landing above; this time it's the landing that connects the two
wings of the first - floor bedrooms.
The room is jaw - dropping in its dimensions with the huge, well - equipped
contemporary kitchen boasting a vast island unit.
The cook will be on cloud nine in this amazing space, thrilled with masses of
storage and worktops, and ample space for all the family and a large group of
friends to join them as they create a feast.
Of course, the view out of the wall of bifold doors is a constant and welcome
companion with the enormous garden terrace is just a seamless step away once
the doors are open, so the party can spill out into the sunshine and probably
head over to the separate garden games room that boasts a bar, lounge and pool
table.
To the right of the entrance hall is a substantial sitting room that offers
another social space and it's a room designed for all seasons and all social
occasions. Fling open the dual aspect bifold doors when the temperature rises
so the family can wander into the garden, or snuggle up beside the
contemporary wood burner for a cosy winter's night while watching your
favourite movie.
The duo of delightful social spaces is complemented by two cosier reception
rooms, one used as a home office with work distracting views out of the window
and the other a snug that is accessed via a large, open doorway from the
kitchen diner.
The ground floor also offers a large utility room and two cloakrooms, but the
bespoke glass panelled staircase is calling you to the first floor to explore
the duo of galleried landings, five bedrooms and three bathrooms.
Fabulous design follows you upstairs with the mezzanine landings offering
absorbing views of the ground floor spaces below, but maybe the star of the
upper floor is the principal bedroom because it's an absolute stunner.
Occupying the end wing of the house the principal suite can boast a dressing
room as well as a luxury ensuite, but it's the private balcony that ensures
this bedroom is an exceptional space.
With the bed placed opposite a wall of bifold doors that open onto a private
balcony you'll find that every morning is a joy when you're waking up to such
an incredible, panoramic view.
The balcony is the perfect place to enjoy the best elevated perspective of the
breathtaking vista, coupled with a morning coffee, late brunch, or evening
drink under the stars. It's a place to sit quietly and be fully immersed in
the landscape, whatever the weather, as great design appears again because the
balcony has its own roof.
**Outside** \ - Step outside into an idyllic and peaceful 14 acres of garden
to feel truly immersed in the astounding countryside landscape with
breathtaking views of the Llandegfedd Reservoir, a myriad of fields and tree -
lined horizons.
Being near the water adds an extra layer of nature and wildlife activity to
watch, further enhancing the enchanting atmosphere that envelops the home.
From the huge terrace that hugs the house, or from any position on the
expansive lawn, the attractive facade of this handsome home can be fully
appreciated as a design that pays homage to the rural location and natural
world that surrounds it, with a mix of stone and wood the principal materials
used.
But as well as an inviting garden to find peaceful places for a picnic and
shady spots for quiet reading, the outside grounds of the property also offer
areas for social gatherings and hosting parties with numerous decks and
terraces to choose from for alfresco dining.
Imagine making special lifelong memories at a summer family BBQ or enjoying an
evening drinks party watching the sunset over the water and the night sky
appear with friends - Yew Tree Farm is the perfect setting for it all.
There's plenty to enthral the guests in the garden, with the ample parking for
multiple vehicles meaning the triple garage has been given a more social
function - it's now a home to a games room with lounge, pool table, bar and
gym area.
Horses can enjoy a happy home here too, with a barn and stables plus a
workshop and home office nestled into approximately 14 acres of land
containing a number of paddocks.
Wandering down towards the water and through the trees in the dappled sunlight
it can feel like you are on your own rural island, with the long driveway off
a small country lane the transition from the noise and stress of an urban life
to a private and peaceful world of tranquillity.
