About the Property
Occupying a truly outstanding position, with breathtaking southerly views across the Lower Wye Valley towards Chepstow Castle and the historic town beyond, Pen-y-Bryn is an individually designed detached residence of considerable character and distinction, set within approximately one acre of private gardens.
Originally constructed in 1964 for Mr E Williams ARIBA, the former owner of the historic Beachley to Aust ferry, the property enjoys a remarkable setting, combining privacy and seclusion with the convenience of being within walking distance of Chepstow town centre.
Of particular historical interest is a Grade II listed tower, situated within the grounds and documented as early as 1584, reputed to have served either as a lookout tower associated with Chepstow Castle or as a windmill, this fascinating architectural feature adds a unique sense of history and individuality to the property.
Pen-y-Bryn offers exceptionally spacious and versatile accommodation, thoughtfully arranged over two floors to take full advantage of its elevated position and magnificent outlook.
