Describing the property, James Dean estate agents said: “Originally built as a fishing lodge in the 1960's, replacing a much older building, possibly a lodge to nearby Llangoed Hall Estate, The Shrubbery is a light and airy, superbly proportioned detached bungalow in a fantastic position.

“Neighbouring The Shrubbery, whilst also offering privacy, with most of the windows facing away from the bungalow, is a detached cottage currently used as an annexe for a relative. Converted some years ago as a Ghillie's cottage, it has been modernised and improved by the current owners.

“In all, the gardens and grounds including the river bank and bed amount to around 6.4 acres. This includes some 443 yards of fishing rights to the River Wye.

“Within the grounds is the pretty Shrub Cottage, a detached two bedroom home which was converted some years ago as a Ghillie's cottage.

“The grounds of the property are accessed via a secure, large, gated driveway and turning area which leads to both properties and the garage block.

“The private, level gardens that surround the two properties are laid mainly to lawn with plenty of mature trees and shrubs.

“On the opposite side of the lane to the bungalow, stone steps lead down to the peaceful and private river bank, which has rights for fishing and wading to half way across the river. This is a superb place to relax and enjoy the views over the river to Boughrood beyond.”
