Property Description
Magor house yesterday:
Many would consider Magor House to be the most prominent and distinguished property in the village with origins from the 16th Century when it was probably built as a Longhouse and Medieval artifacts have been discovered on the property. It was largely created in Georgian times and has probably had a variety of uses, including as a Veterinary and Doctor's Surgery.
Magor house today:
The present owners fell in love with Magor House and using their expertise and skills as interior designers and with a great deal of attention to detail have created an outstanding and practical family home.
On entering the property you will be immediately impressed by the style and character of the reception hall with its impressive staircase and black and white tiled floor. Both the Drawing and Dining Rooms are a very good size and each has a welcoming fireplace with a woodburner. The Kitchen Breakfast Room refitted five years ago, is exceptional, one of the main features being bi-folding doors to the rear courtyard. There is also a very useful utility room and cloakroom. The office, which is off the reception hall, is ideal for those wanting to work from home and could also be used as a 6th bedroom or as a playroom if you have a young family and there is also a further small study.
On the first floor there are five double bedrooms, a family bathroom and an en-suite shower room. Three of the bedrooms have very attractive views across Magor Square. A further feature of the property is the exceptional quality of the fittings, the tasteful decoration and high level of presentation, as our photographs show.
The garden house (the annex) has also been refurbished to the same high standards and offers potential to provide a very valuable additional income. There is a large living room/kitchen, double bedroom and shower room and the annex is also ideal as a separate suite for teenagers or extended family.
Finally, the traditional railed forecourt, private courtyard and good sized gardens make Magor House an outstanding opportunity to acquire a traditional family home in one of the most popular villages in Monmouthshire.
Location:
Magor House is in a prominent position in the historic village square and local amenities, including a Post Office, Doctors and Dentists surgeries and a variety of shops are all within a short walk. There is an excellent primary school in the village with secondary schooling in nearby Caldicot and private schools in Newport, Chepstow, Monmouth and Bristol.
For the sports enthusiasts, the Ryder Cup venue of the Celtic Manor Resort is a short drive away and Magor offers Rugby, Football, Tennis and Cricket Clubs. The local countryside will also be an attraction for many, being close to Wentwood Forest, The Wye Valley and Severn Estuary and Magor Nature Reserve and site of Special Scientific Interest are on the doorstep.
Magor could not be better placed for travelling being on junction 23a of the M4 which brings Newport, Cardiff and Bristol within 30 minutes drive.

Outside
We were advised by the owners that in the past the garden house has been let for £8,000 per annum, which could make a significant contribution towards the cost of a mortgage and the upkeep of the building as a whole.
Magor House has great appeal from the outside, with a slate forecourt with metal railings and metal gates.
It is proposed that there will be a permanent pedestrian right of way granted down the side of the property to the rear garden of Magor House.
The owners of Magor House will be retaining the land at the back of the rear garden where planning permission has been granted for a detached bungalow and this will leave what will still be a good sized garden comprising of a flag stone courtyard with flood lighting, hedging and shrubs, an ornate archway to a lawn with a fishpond and a further variety of shrubs and bushes.
As part of the planning permission for the bungalow, a new stone wall is to be built to create a new boundary with Magor House.
Points of note
Magor House / Garden Cottage
1. There is to be a new boundary wall between Magor House and the plot behind and this will be constructed in accordance with the planning permission at the vendors cost.
2. The planning permission for the bungalow provides for there to be a new access from Withy Walk and Magor House will have 3 parking spaces. The cost of providing the access and parking spaces will be responsibility of the vendor. Thereafter, maintaining the parking spaces will be the responsibility of the owners of Magor House. Maintaining the access drive will be shared equally with the owners of the new bungalow.
Viewing arrangements are by prior appointment with the vendors sole selling agents Roberts Estate Agents .
