  • Ample parking & garage
  • Idyllic village location

Delightful, charming, and quaint are all words that describe this village school conversion located in the Monmouthshire countryside. Originally built in 1877, Llanishen Board School was sadly closed in 1987 and since has been converted to offer residential accommodation by way of a house with adjoining one bedroomed, self-contained annexe. Overall, there are three bedrooms though the ground floor office would be adapted to offer additional sleeping space. The main building comprises vestibule, cloakroom, vaulted living room with mezzanine, dining room, office/bedroom three, galley kitchen. To the first floor there are two bedrooms and a bathroom. The adjoining annexe has an open plan ground floor lounge/kitchen/diner with one double bedroom and a bathroom to the first floor. The school retains many original features and benefits from oil fired central heating and double glazing. The property is set on a large corner plot and is surrounded by extensive, well planted gardens on three sides. There is off road parking for three cars.

The village of Llanishen is located 7 miles south west of Monmouth and is set within the Wye Valley Forest Park in the upland area within the River Wye Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The main part of the village is set immediately to the west of the main road overlooking the Vale of Usk and it is here that you will find this beautifully converted village school.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
