What3Words location: ///gates.sunset.fields Vendor Interview: This magnificent, spacious and welcoming, home sits within its own generous parcel of land in the delightful, caring, village of St Brides, set on the Severn Estuary and ideally positioned within easy reach of Newport and Cardiff. Once a dairy farm, the transformation of the original dwelling into this wonderful family home is the result of the vision and determination of its owners. Ian and Jan, and it has been their much treasured home for the past thirty five years. “With five young children, our original brief was both ambitious and exacting. Working closely with our architect, our aim was to design a home that balanced generous shared spaces with areas for privacy, relaxation and individuality. Over the years our house has been continually upgraded, tweaked, extended and enhanced to meet the changing needs of family life.” “Among the many of the significant improvements we have completed, was the replacement and enlargement of the original conservatory, resulting in a spacious and comfortable family room. This has become the heart of our home, particularly for large gatherings of friends and family. Plus, it has taken on even greater importance in recent years since the arrival of grandchildren as our family numbers have increased. The kitchen has always been a priority and is designed as a truly sociable space. When the doors are thrown open, it offers a superb indoor/outdoor living experience, perfect for entertaining and everyday family life.” “Further thoughtful innovations included the demolition of old stables to create a much-loved cinema room along with a master bedroom suite, complete with dressing room. An independent living space was also created, providing flexibility for extended family members.” “The external spaces have also received  much attention. The grounds offer extensive open areas which have hosted countless celebrations over the years. One particular, delightful, event was a wedding reception for one our children when a large marquee was adjoined to the rear of the house and helped to generate a truly memorable occasion. In addition, with no light pollution, our location offers exceptional stargazing – an enduring delight for one of our grandchildren.” “This has been a truly special home in an incredible location, one filled with memories and milestones. As the time has come to move on, we sincerely wish the new custodians as much happiness and contentment as we have enjoyed throughout the years.”
