This exceptional residence has been sympathetically renovated to a remarkable standard, offering a rare blend of elegant period charm and stylish contemporary living. The Copper House is located within the heart of the sought after village of Cwmavon, not only making it an ideal location for multi-generational families, with convenient access to the M4, local amenities and a reputable school, but for its vast business potential for those looking to invest into a blended living/business lifestyle.
Cwmavon village also offers a central base for those wishing to explore the vast Afan Valley forestry trails, with countless hiking and biking tracks meandering right the way up through the valley, making it a popular outdoor pursuits destination. Over the last two centuries, the property has had a variety of uses, the last business use being a public house, with an impressive two storey attached stone barn, formally used as an adjoining restaurant. The barn now offers the potential for conversion, giving scope for a multitude of uses to include; a substantial self catering holiday let, taking advantage of the property's close proximity to the Afan Valley forestry or conversion into a large workshop, garage or self contained annex, to further enhance the multi-generational living layout - subject to obtaining relevant planning permissions. Proudly, the property is noted for its historical importance within the area but is not restricted by any Grade One or Two stipulations.
In summary, the accommodation is both spacious and versatile, ideally suited to modern family life. To the ground floor, a welcoming entrance hallway leads to three beautifully presented reception rooms, each boasting original features such as high ceilings, decorative coving, original floors and feature fireplaces. The open-plan kitchen/breakfast area is fitted with a range of contemporary base and wall mounted units, with a centre fixed island and doors leading out to the impressive landscaped garden. A medieval inspired cloakroom provides the household with two separate toilets to use on the ground floor and a secret passage way from the 'Cwtch' reception room leads to a utility room/second kitchen and a Mediterranean inspired courtyard garden.
To the first floor, the accommodation offers five uniquely decorated double bedrooms, two with walk in wardrobes and one with a secret doorway leading into a full dressing room. All of the bedrooms share the use of two beautifully appointed bathrooms.
Below the ground floor of the main residence, the property boasts five spacious cellars, some benefitting from power supply and lighting, with direct access from both inside the property and externally.
Outside the property is set back behind a small stone wall from the road side, with ample off-road parking to both the front and side of the property. The main enclosed rear garden offers expansive lawned and wooden decked areas, with well-stocked borders that provide colour and privacy throughout the seasons. The decked area benefits from a sunken hot tub space, with a sheltered pergola over. At the edge of the wooden decked platform bordering the lawn, a detached composite summerhouse with an anthracite UPVC bi-fold door and power supply offers a tranquil and cosy relaxation space to unwind in and enjoy the view of the garden.
