Go about half way along Penylan Road and the property is on your left hand side set slightly down from the road with the name on the front. From the M4/Bridgend Come off the M4 at Junction 35 towards Bridgend keeping on the A473 dual carriageway which then becomes the A48 by-pass road. Pass under the railway bridge and at the next roundabout with traffic lights turn left onto the B4265 which will take you to St Brides Major. As you enter the village turn first left (sharp turn up hill) into Blackhall Road and at the top turn right into Penylan Road. Fox House is about half way down on your right hand side.
Introduction: Fox House was built in 2006 by the directors of mrj Properties Limited for their own occupation and offers substantial family accommodation fitted and finished to a particularly high standard and designed to take full advantage of the wide ranging south westerly views to the rear. While an impressive house from the front it's only from the rear that you really get the full impression of just how big this house is. Ground floor accommodation - the standard is set as you step in through the double oak doors into a spacious marble floor hall over 17' high with a central hand built oak staircase dividing into two on an oak landing and then onto the gallery which stretches all around the hall. The drawing room is divided from the dining room by a central contemporary glass sided wood burning working fireplace. The study to the front is fitted with over 30' of Hammonds units including desks, bookcases, etc. The hub of the house is however to the rear with the large breakfast room linking the superbly fitted kitchen and the 26' long family room with slate pitched roof and a series of fourteen folding double glazed doors on three sides so that when they are open you are effectively sitting out on the huge terrace enjoying the wide ranging view. Additional living space is provided by the spectacular entertainment room on the second floor with over 800 sq ft of space. Bedroom accommodation on the first floor provides four double bedrooms and three bathrooms with two en-suite arrangements and one Jack and Jill en-suite. The owners have finished Fox House to a very high specification including high quality fitments to the bathrooms, cloakrooms, kitchen and utility room. Lovely marble, travertine and porcelain tiling to floors and walls. Mains gas fired central heating which is underfloor to the ground floor; considerable use of oak; high quality double glazing. A particular hi-tech feature of Fox House is the sophisticated 'Systemline' multi source, multi room audio system with touch control keypads, remote controls, in-ceiling speakers in almost all rooms including bathrooms. Fox House enjoys an elevated location overlooking the village and set on a quiet residential road. St Brides Major enjoys good village facilities including post office/general store, two village pubs, specialist shops, well regarded Church of Wales infant and junior school from where the children go to Cowbridge Comprehensive. Just a mile or so to the south is the Heritage coastline with the beaches at Southerndown and Ogmore-by-Sea. Southerndown Golf Club is just a few minutes drive away. The good local road network brings easy access to major centres including Cowbridge, Llantrisant, Cardiff, Swansea, Bridgend, etc. There is a main railway station at Bridgend and Cardiff Wales Airport is within comfortable driving distance.
This is a high quality individual modern detached house and if you are looking for something a bit different and with a particularly high specification then do come and have a look and I am sure you will not be disappointed.
