Highfield, Monmouth, NP25 4RH

‘Highfield’ is a beautifully restored period property tucked away in a truly remarkable setting, offering breathtaking, uninterrupted views towards the Brecon Beacons.

The property sits on a generous plot of approximately 4.6 acres, with four paddocks, each with its own private water supply, detached barns and outbuildings, and a further coach house ripe for conversion (subject to necessary consents).

A sweeping driveway leads you to a generous parking area with an EV charging point set to the side of the property. The home opens into a spacious hallway, with coat storage and a convenient WC.

Beyond lies the heart of the home – a substantial architecturally designed open-plan living space flooded with natural light, a homely inglenook fireplace and stone walls.

Tri-folding doors offer a natural extension to the home, opening onto the raised sun terrace with the enchanting rolling countryside views, perfectly framing the setting.

The kitchen enjoys equally impressive proportions with ample storage, granite work surfaces and a large breakfast bar.

The home incorporates a state-of-the-art energy efficiency system designed to keep running costs to an absolute minimum, featuring an air source heat pump, zoned underfloor heating to the ground floor, high-performance wall, floor and roof insulation, triple glazing, and a whole-house mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (mvhr) system.

The heat pump controls are housed within the plant room, located opposite the conservatory, while the mvhr system is operated via a dedicated control panel in the en-suite shower room.

The formal entrance hall at the side leads to a shower room, store room and a particularly generous dining space – giving scope for multi-generational living.

Upstairs are three genuine double bedrooms. The principal bedroom spans the width of the home, with an en-suite bathroom, allowing you to further appreciate the rural setting.

The second bedroom has been set up with convenience in mind, with a door onto the family shower room.

Highfield is perfect for equestrians, families, or those simply wanting a way of life uniquely their own.

Highfield is situated in Lydart, a peaceful hillside hamlet within the Wye Valley National Landscape, around an eight-minute drive from the market town of Monmouth.

The town offers independent shops, cafés and restaurants, regular markets and a choice of supermarkets, including Waitrose, M&S Simply Food and Lidl.

Families have access to Monmouth Comprehensive School and the independent Haberdashers’ Monmouth Schools.

The surrounding countryside offers plenty to explore, with walking, cycling and horse-riding routes across the Wye Valley, while the River Wye provides further opportunities to enjoy the outdoors.

Despite its rural setting, Lydart is well placed for the A40 and A449, with Cardiff and Bristol approximately 40 minutes away by car; direct trains to London Paddington are available from Newport and Bristol Parkway, with journeys taking around one hour and 45 minutes, depending on the service.
