The unique property is constructed around a most unique feature - a large two storey stone dovecote, a real landmark in the village.

However, the dovecote is not listed and has scope to be demolished alongside the workshop area and garage. The dovecote could also be converted into a study or even a watch tower.

With stunning views from the front elevation, the property comes with three bedrooms and various reception rooms.

There are gardens to both sides, both providing pedestrian access to the property, a large garage/ workshop with up and over doors and off-street parking space.

The property may not be to everyone’s design taste but with a little TLC the house could become a beautiful three-bedroom home. Many of the existing rooms have large, vaulted ceilings that could be exposed and velux windows or even skylights could be installed.

Llanvair Discoed which has an ancient church and village pub lies just north of the A48 road, with easy access to the schools, shops and facilities in Caldicot which is under six miles away. The semi-detached house falls within the catchment of Shirenewton Primary School.
