Wernrheolydd, Usk, NP15

Welcome to something truly special!

If you know the Abergavenny area, you may be aware that in 1066 William the Conqueror invaded Wales and set up camp locally – but do you know exactly where?
Welcome to the borders of Abergavenny and Usk. Welcome to New House Farm, and welcome to the Conqueror’s Meadow!

This delightful family home offers three double bedrooms on the upper floor, a fully self-contained one-bedroom annex, a range of useful outbuildings, a Dutch hay barn, six stables, and three paddocks. The middle field is famously known as the Conqueror’s Meadow, where William the Conqueror’s armies camped in 1066 during the invasion of Wales.
Recently upgraded with significant ECO improvements, the property now enjoys much better energy performance and lower running costs. Enhancements include loft insulation, internal wall insulation, owned solar panels, a new boiler, and a heat pump. A log burner adds to the cosy, homely atmosphere throughout the winter months.
Nestled along a quiet lane in the unspoilt hamlet of Wernrheolydd, the farm sits peacefully on the borders of Abergavenny and Usk. This small, exclusive hamlet of just eight properties includes New House Farm, which was once the local bakery (now beautifully converted into the annex). This peaceful rural setting is highly sought after.
Inside the main house

You enter via a practical boot room, keeping the outside where it belongs. The generous living room features a welcoming log burner and striking exposed 17th-century stonework surrounding the original doorway to the annex. This central space connects seamlessly to the kitchen, dining room, and annex.

The kitchen offers fitted units and worktops with lovely garden views, while the adjacent dining room includes another fireplace and a secondary entrance. Upstairs you’ll find three good-sized double bedrooms, all enjoying beautiful countryside views, plus a family bathroom with both a bath and a separate walk-in shower.

The self-contained annex.
Accessed via the exposed stone doorway (or its own separate ground-level entrance), the annex provides independent living with a utility room (housing the heat pump), a modern bathroom, kitchenette, living area, and a large double bedroom. It has previously been successfully let as an Airbnb, offering excellent flexibility for multi-generational living, guests, or income potential.

Outside
The grounds are generous and private, with a large courtyard, multiple outbuildings, a Dutch hay barn, and six stables (all with water and electricity). The stables open onto three paddocks separated by hedgerows, connected by a dirt track. Surrounded by rolling hills and greenery in every direction, the setting is idyllic.

This is a stunning turnkey home full of character and history. For those with vision, architect’s plans are already in place to extend the property, including the potential for an indoor swimming pool, planning will need to be applied for.

The property would benefit from some renovation work, new windows, kitchens, bathrooms, some decoration and potential for an extension.
The land hasn't been worked for many years with no chemicals sprayed for approximately fifteen years.

The land that comes with the property is over 12.5 acres so brings the property in to a less restrictive planning band.

Viewings are by appointment – please register your interest with the agent to arrange a private viewing.

This isn’t just buying a home – it’s owning a genuine piece of Welsh history with the potential to be something very special.
