House For Sale £1,100,000
The Folly (originally Folly Farm) was purchased in 1996 and in the time since has been tastefully renovated, modernised and extended. With the addition of a fully self-contained two bedroom apartment above one section accessed via it's own exterior staircase. This spacious five bedroomed farmhouse sits in an elevated position with views towards Wentwood Forest which sits only 50 metres away from the property entrance. With options for cycling, walking and riding etc, this is the perfect residence for an active family and lovers of the outdoors.
The main accommodation briefly comprises porch, living room, snug, dining room, boot room, ground floor guest bedroom and shower room, kitchen/breakfast/family room and utility room. To the first floor the master bedroom has a dressing room and en-suite bathroom and there are three further three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The apartment comprises open plan lounge/kitchen, two bedrooms and a shower room. Early Viewing is strongly recommended.
Whilst the property is idyllically rural being part of this scattered hamlet, it is just six miles from the M48 at Chepstow and the Severn Bridge making it perfect for commuting to any of the surrounding cities.
