THE PROPERTY

Picodean is a detached family home approached via a private driveway with electric gates and set in approximately 3 acres of mature woodland with far reaching rural views towards the Severn Estuary.
The property is on the market for first time since 1995 with the original house dating from 1724 which was then considerably extended in 2001 and 2011 to create 5513 Sq Ft of accommodation.
The majority of the principal rooms have a Southerly aspect with the upper floors of the original house providing four bedrooms whilst the first floor the modern addition is arranged as a large open plan living space with additional reception rooms.
Freehold and sold with vacant possession.
Utilities - Gas and Oil Fuel.

LOCATION

Overlooking the Caldicot Levels and surrounding wetlands, the property occupies a private and elevated position, set back via private drive from Bowdens Lane located betwixt Chepstow and Newport within easy access of the M4 motorway providing direct access to Bristol & Cardiff.

Buyers should note that there are no longer Tolls for either Severn Bridge to access Bristol and beyond.

Located only a short distance away from Magor Square, a pedestrian area with free parking, which offers a wide range of local amenities including Doctors surgery, grocery shops, pubs and restaurants.
Proud of his history, Caldicot not only offers a range of High Street shops and supermarkets but also boasts its own Medieval Castle with spacious grounds which are free for local residents to enjoy.

The nearest railway station is just 5 minutes away for an easy commute to Cardiff, Bristol (and onward to London) and Gloucester.

THE OPPORTUNITY

FAMILY HOME WITH HUGE POTENTIAL

The property has huge potential for a fantastic family home but would now benefit from a coordinated plan to amend the overall layout for modern family life.
There is a large parking area with scope ( subject to consents ) to erect a garage / car port.
The mature gardens are now also in need of a master plan but with a zip wire and half pipe already in situ it offers huge potential for a family orientated space.

POTENTIAL BUILDING PLOT IN GARDEN

There is scope to create ( subject to consents ) an additional dwelling within the grounds.

EPC

For full details of the EPC please refer to the online legal pack.

BUYER'S PREMIUM

Please be aware all purchasers are subject to a £1000 + VAT (£1,200 inc VAT) buyer's premium which is ALWAYS payable upon exchange of contracts whether the sale is concluded before, during or after the auction date.

GUIDE PRICE

An indication of the seller's current minimum acceptable price at auction. The guide price or range of guide prices is given to assist consumers in deciding whether or not to pursue a purchase. It is usual, but not always the case, that a provisional reserve range is agreed between the seller and the auctioneer at the start of marketing. As the reserve is not fixed at this stage and can be adjusted by the seller at any time up to the day of the auction in the light of interest shown during the marketing period, a guide price is issued. This guide price can be shown in the form of a minimum and maximum price range within which an acceptable sale price (reserve) would fall, or as a single price figure within 10% of which the minimum acceptable price (reserve) would fall. A guide price is different to a reserve price (see separate definition). Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.

RESERVE PRICE

The seller's minimum acceptable price at auction and the figure below which the auctioneer cannot sell. The reserve price is not disclosed and remains confidential between the seller and the auctioneer. Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.
