Cnepyn House is a detached house with a garage, swimming pool, and stables set in an idyllic location, with a plot of approximately 8.64 acres. The residence stands in an elevated position with picturesque countryside views and is well-placed for easy access to the M4 motorway, Cardiff, Cowbridge and the many nearby amenities. The property is approached from a driveway that leads to a parking area and continues to circle a landscaped garden. An open-air swimming pool is located to the north of the house, adjacent to an old lime kiln and a wood set in the grounds of a former lime quarry with many interesting quirks that help to create an enchanting fairytale wood. Formal gardens adorn the front of the house to the south, with a central path, flower beds, and lawns enclosed by white fencing and a gate to the paddock. A fenced-off brick-built double stable block is positioned at the bottom of the garden, south of the paddock with separate access to the adjoining road.
Cnepyn House is a double bay fronted house, thought to have been built around the 1920s and extended over time. The accommodation comprises an entrance porch, hall, cloakroom, inner hall, lounge, dining room, kitchen, breakfast room, sitting room, and second cloakroom on the ground floor. The first floor houses a master bedroom with an en-suite, four bedrooms, a further en-suite, and two bathrooms. The house has a formidable ambiance created by the superb plot, panoramic countryside views, idyllic prime location, and huge potential. The property requires investment to fulfill the outstanding potential that it undoubtedly holds.
