Tucked away along sought after Glasllwch Lane. Dingleholme is a property that effortlessly blends space, warmth and a positive ambience throughout. With its generous rooms, sunny west facing garden and excellent access to both countryside and local towns, it offers the pleasing combination of tranquillity and convenience that makes family living truly special. It is a superb family property that has been loved by the same family for over forty five years.

During that time, extensive improvements have been made, and the property has been carefully maintained; work includes the construction of a three car garage with a workshop at the end of the garden, and a games room featuring a full size table, upon which Jimmy White and Alex Higgins are believed to have played an exhibition match.

There is a study and bathroom above this extension and the master bedroom has also been extended and enhanced by the addition of an ensuite bathroom.

Dingleholme is a comfortable property where every room has been well used and appreciated. The owner fondly recalls large family gatherings in the dining room at Christmas time, followed by films on the big screen, before moving over to the games room for snooker, music and socialising around the bar, whilst being plied with further snacks from the adjoining kitchen. It is a house that truly comes alive when filled with people.

The secluded, pretty, west facing garden enjoys sunshine throughout the day and provides the perfect setting to relax or enjoy al fresco meals on the patio: It has also played host to a wedding reception and several floodlit garden parties.

The house benefits from an excellent location. It is only a six minute walk to Pye Corner train station, while Newport Station is less than a ten-minute drive away. There is quick access to the M4, and Cardiff can be reached in around twenty minutes by car. Local shops and schools are within easy walking distance, and the surrounding area offers wonderful opportunities for outdoor activity. Nearby Ridgeway and the Allt-yr-Yn Nature Reserve provide beautiful walking routes, while illuminated cycle paths through the old golf course and Tredegar Park allow for easy, traffic-free cycling or walking to work.

Having lived at Dingleholme since childhood, the owner has always valued the property’s unique balance of peaceful surroundings and everyday convenience, with excellent access to local amenities and transport links. He is certain the new owners will, likewise, fall in love with this special home and the lifestyle it offers.”*
