5 bed detached house for sale

Gwehelog, Usk NP15

Set within 6.2 acres of glorious Monmouthshire countryside, Poplars Farmhouse is a delightful smallholding that blends character, comfort and versatility in equal measure. At its heart sits a beautifully renovated detached four bedroom cottage, complemented by a triple garage with annexe above, sweeping gardens, a sloping paddock and two substantial agricultural outbuildings. It is a home that offers space to breathe, room to grow and the freedom to shape a lifestyle that feels truly rural, yet remains remarkably well connected.

Step Inside

The farmhouse welcomes you through a spacious central hallway, with doors leading to the principal living spaces. The open plan kitchen is a wonderfully bright and airy room, enjoying a triple aspect with views across the gardens and land. It is both practical and inviting, fitted with an integral oven, grill, microwave, induction hob, extractor, dishwasher and wine cooler, with space for a freestanding American style fridge freezer. French doors open directly onto the patio, making this an ideal space for summer entertaining, while the generous proportions allow for a large family dining table at its heart.

The main living room is located in the oldest part of the property and is warm and characterful, with a dual aspect outlook over the front and side gardens and a woodburning stove forming a natural focal point. A connecting door leads through to a second reception room, currently used as a study, offering a quiet retreat or flexible family space.

A downstairs cloakroom and a separate laundry room complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, the home continues to impress with four well proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom. All bedrooms have been recently redecorated with new flooring. The principal bedroom is particularly light and airy, enhanced by Velux windows that flood the room with natural light. Bedrooms two and three are both doubles with views to the front, while bedroom four is arranged as a child’s room and benefits from fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room. The family bathroom is fitted with a bath and shower over, WC and pedestal basin.

The Garage and Annexe

The current owners have thoughtfully transformed an existing outbuilding into a detached triple garage with a one bedroom annexe above. The annexe is ancillary to the main house, offering ideal accommodation for family, guests or a home office setup.

The living space is open plan to the kitchen, which is fitted with white gloss units and integral oven, hob, extractor and fridge. From the kitchen, stairs lead down to the bedroom and shower room with WC. There is limited head height within the annexe, adding to its charm and suitability as occasional or family accommodation.

Step Outside


In total, the land extends to around 6.2 acres, providing a rare blend of manageable grounds and genuine rural opportunity. The house itself sits proudly within just over an acre of established gardens, framed by mature trees and hedging. Lawned areas wrap around the house, creating a private and peaceful setting, while a patio provides the perfect spot for al fresco dining. A hot tub is available by separate negotiation.

Within the garden is a redundant chicken shed, currently in need of attention but offering useful storage or future potential.

Beyond the gardens lies a sloping paddock and two impressive steel framed agricultural buildings. One is fully enclosed and secure with a roller door, measuring approximately 12.17m x 9.27m. The second is largely open sided, measuring approximately 13.72m x 7.27m. Together, they offer outstanding flexibility for a range of uses, whether equestrian, smallholding, business or hobby based.

Agent’s Note

The property benefits from mains electricity and water, private drainage via a septic tank and oil fired central heating.

Access to Poplars Farmhouse is via a private driveway, the initial section of which crosses a public bridle path. A Right of Way is in place.

At present there is open access between Poplars Farmhouse and the neighbouring Poplars Barn. This will be closed off upon completion of a sale to clearly define the boundary between the two properties.

Viewings

Before requesting a viewing, we encourage you to explore all the marketing materials we’ve provided. Take a good look the photos, floorplan, video, map and any land plans provided. If possible, we also suggest driving by the property or using Google Street View to get a feel for the area and check if it’s the right spot for you. Some of our clients may ask that only proceedable buyers, those who are under offer or have no related sale, request viewings. If you’d prefer a more modern approach, we also offer video viewings. Just let us know if that works better for you!

Property Information

All measurements, floorplans, and land plans are there to give you a rough idea, and are approximate. While we’ve done our best to make sure everything is accurate, we recommend double-checking the details with your solicitor. We haven’t tested any of the services or appliances, so we can’t guarantee they’re in working order. The photos are for marketing purposes, so please don’t assume that everything you see is included with the property. Some fixtures and fittings may also be available by separate negotiation. We’re committed to ensuring you have all the info you need to make an informed decision when buying a property. However, it’s essential that all details are verified by your solicitor, and everything we’ve provided is given in good faith, based on information from our sellers and our own research.

Services

From time to time, we might recommend third-party services like mortgages, legal advice, or surveys. In most cases, we don’t get any financial incentives for doing this, but there may be a few instances where we do. Rest assured, anyone using a recommended provider won’t receive preferential treatment and it won't affect their position or priority over other interested parties. Their choice is always their own.
