This most attractive stone dressed period residence sits in an enviable spot in the favoured Lower Common area of Gilwern and enjoys distant hillside views over its large westerly rear gardens towards the hillside beyond.  Occupying a plot size of approximately 0.2 of an acre, this detached family home is generously proportioned with four double bedrooms, three reception rooms and a spacious shower room on the ground floor.  Extended over time, a kitchen / breakfast room spans the width of the house at the rear and whilst the property might benefit from cosmetic updating, there are many character features including heavy panelled doors and fireplaces in the reception rooms and three of the bedrooms.  This home has been sympathetically upgraded and benefits from double glazed sash style windows befitting the property’s heritage, an attached garage, and a sizeable workshop in the garden equipped with power and a gardener’s wc. 

Double fronted with a hipped roof and chimney stacks to either end, this is a generously proportioned property but given its plot size and access to either side of the house, offers the potential for further extension or development to suit, subject to the necessary planning consent.

Surface Water Flood Risk
Unlike flooding from rivers, surface water flooding can happen many miles from a river, often in places that people wouldn’t expect because it’s a long way from a river or stream – it happens simply because there is nowhere else for the rainwater to go. Risk ratings are measured as:
High Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 30 (3.3%) in any one year.
Medium Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 100 (1.0%) in any one year.
Low Risk - an area which has a chance of flooding of greater than 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year.
Very Low Risk - an area in which the risk is below 1 in 1000 (0.1%) in any one year

Council Tax pays for multiple services in the property's local authority with only part of it going to the council itself. Residences within a Parish or Town Council area have an additional charge to fund the body. Each parish/town council has a different budget and imposes different fees. Not all councils have parishes/town councils and this varies across the country.

In instances where parish/town councils do affect the council tax value and we do not have the exact figure, we present council tax data with the below highlights. Take care to confirm which is being presented by the dashboard as this will need to be made clear to your clients:

avg - When we indicate the Council Tax price is 'avg', it means we have not been able to obtain an exact figure, so this number represents the mean value of Council Tax across the council for that property band. The exact figure will be slightly higher or lower because each parish/town council is priced differently.

min - When we indicate the Council Tax is a 'min', it represents the known amount that the council sets for itself, but excludes the parish/town council cost which we have not been able to obtain. The additional cost will need to be considered as it will be greater than the indicated price.
