**This Georgian Grade II Listed gentleman’s residence with origins from the 17th Century is presented with a wealth of period features which sit beautifully alongside its more modern enhancements.  Although requiring further finishing, this period family home is substantial in both size and character.  Arranged over three floors to include a cellar plus a large attic, this five bedroomed, two bathroom family home has two reception rooms, a spacious yet comfortable dual aspect kitchen / breakfast / family room spanning the width of the property, and a range of ancillary rooms to aid the domesticity requirements of the house.  This detached home is centrally placed in a favoured village and enjoys an outlook over its southerly garden towards the mountains which surround the market town of  Abergavenny which lies just 3 miles down the road.  ** **The property is believed to have been the home of John Harries, the proprietor of Govilon Forge and Cadw indicates that the house was noted for its links to the local iron industry.  Double fronted, this home is entered through a central hallway which displays the original staircase with wide oak treads and an impressive stone flagged floor.  The hallway is flanked to either side by two reception rooms both of which have shuttered sash windows and fireplaces with fitted furniture to the chimney breast recesses.  At the rear of the house, a generously sized dual aspect kitchen / breakfast / family room makes a great entertaining space for at home dining or meeting and socialising with family and friends.  As you’d expect from a great social room, there is direct access to the inner workings of the house with a door leading to a laundry, cloaks and boot room. ** Upstairs, there are three rooms to the front of the house with wonderful views to the Sugar Loaf, and two roomsto the rear.  Four of the bedrooms are served by a modern white bathroom suite with his n hers wash basins, whilst one of the bedrooms has a shower room and the principal room has a door to a room which could be adapted into a bathroom if so desired.  A staircase leads from this floor to an attic space which given the footprint of the house is sizeable in scope and offers the potential for conversion if additional accommodation is needed, subject to the required consent. **Outside, a sweeping driveway at the rear of the house provides off road parking for several vehicles and leads to an attached garage which we understand were the former stables to the house.  In addition, there is a detached workshop measuring 22’1 x 14’10 and a two storey open bay hayloft which lends itself to conversion to accommodation to suit, again subject to the required consent.     **
