Property description

Barn Conversion with Annexe Potential with enormous scope for refurbishment and improvement.

Situated in a stunning location in the beautiful Vale of Usk, is this historic 17th Century barn conversion, boasting almost 3,000 sq ft of spacious living accommodation to include a most generous and flexible configuration affording the potential to create an annexe for multi-generational living and enjoying three reception rooms, a 26' 10 kitchen/diner, five double bedrooms served by five bathrooms,a courtyard with stone built outbuildings and a substantial covered open barn plus an adjoining paddock. Offered to the market with no onward chain.

Agents Introduction
Believed to date from the mid-17th Century, Swallows Nest is a substantial barn conversion, originally a humble barn to the farmhouse and now currently arranged over two floors into a family home of just under 3000 sq ft as a single albeit large, residential dwelling. The accommodation is extremely spacious and versatile in nature and would suit those looking for a sizeable home but would equally appeal to buyers seeking a property with the potential to be altered into two dwellings, either separate or inter-connected The modest barns situated in the courtyard also offer scope for alteration, all subject to the necessary consent.

For more comprehensive shopping and leisure facilities, the ancient market town of Abergavenny is just 9 miles away providing a railway station and a hospital, whilst Monmouth is almost equidistant, approximately 8 miles away.Raglan is surrounded by scenic countryside yet is ideally placed to provide easy access onto the A40 and A449 which provide links to Abergavenny, Monmouth and Newport and then further afield to the M50 and M4 for the Midlands, West Wales, Cardiff and central London.
