Sellers Insight Old Gunter’s Barn is a beautifully converted barn that offers space, comfort and character in an idyllic and picturesque setting; creating a perfect oasis of calm and privacy whilst remaining close to a welcoming village community. The present owner, Kate, recalls how she and her husband first discovered the rather run down barn and saw its potential as a superb family home. They lovingly brought the barn back into the twenty first century, and work included redecorating throughout, converting the garage into a games and garden room, alongside the addition of a new garage. Natural light floods the rooms in Old Gunter’s Barn creating a bright and uplifting ambience throughout the home.  Windows frame stunning views that sweep across the countryside towards the River Severn and the Severn Bridge, bringing a sense of connection with the beauty of the landscape, into the home. Each room is designed to be both practical and welcoming, but the lounge and the games room are the firm favourites, offering peaceful places to relax, and unwind.  The lounge window draws the garden indoors enhancing the calm of this charming living space.  The garden room has been the hub for entertainment and social gatherings. With its bar, that has been stocked with draught beer, pool table and comfortable seating places it holds memories of happy gatherings of family and friends. Outside the lawns wrap round three sides of the house, and the areas of dry flintstone, colourful planting and shrubbery combine to make a garden for sitting and savouring this tranquil oasis where the sounds of the busy birdlife add to the delight. A covered outdoor spot provides the perfect spot for al fresco dining whether enjoying a quiet time with a book or hosting friends on quiet summer evenings.  A gate leads into the three adjoining paddocks, currently used by a farmer for grazing his cattle, but has also served as a landing spot for a helicopter, highlighting the flexibility and appeal of the property. Old Gunter’s Barn is only five minutes from community minded Caerwent village which offers a pub and post office, and the remains of an ancient Roman forum and temple. Steeped in history, and three miles away, the town of Caldicot has a castle, leisure centre and costal walking paths whilst Chepstow and Newport are easily accessible for shopping, restaurants and commuting. Monmouthshire is renowned for its beautiful landscapes, rivers, and scenic coastal path and countryside walks. Kate says Old Gunter’s Barn has given the family twelve very happy years, but the time has come to downsize and she knows that the barn will bring the next owners the same peaceful lifestyle and sense of belonging.

Closer still, Sholden has a welcoming community atmosphere with local stores and services that make life easy. One of our favourite aspects of living here has been the access to farm shops and local produce. Within a short drive you’ll find places like Ripple Farm, Solley’s Farm, and several smaller independent growers offering fresh fruit, vegetables, dairy and artisan goods. It’s a lovely part of the lifestyle here, being able to buy local, seasonal produce and enjoy the countryside on the way. Families will appreciate the excellent choice of award winning local schools.

The area has always felt very family‑friendly, with safe streets, green spaces and plenty of activities for children. What we’ve loved most about Hull Place is the sense of calm it provides. The tree‑lined surroundings, the quiet lanes and the gentle countryside backdrop make it feel like a retreat, yet everything, shops, schools, transport, the beach, is close enough to reach in minutes. It’s a location that has offered us privacy, convenience and a wonderful quality of life.
