Are you looking for a stunning individual home that perfectly blends old with new, in a thriving small community with stunning walks around you and an amazing garden to enjoy? If so this could be the home for you.
The Old Forge has its origins from the 1800’s when it was the blacksmith to a large local home in the village. Sitting on a now private road in a small development of executive homes this is a fantastic property in one of the most loved villages on the edge of the Forest of Dean, Newnham on Severn.
If you are craving old but love new this is a great example. You can still see the brick work from the original building as you approach the property, and inside the walls are not straight, yet the property is finished with precision to a flat and clean canvas for any décor style the new owner could choose.
The drive from the road is private and shared and leads to The Old Forge, the properties off road parking on the original stones and the garage. There is plenty of parking, lots of trees and a feeling of really being in the countryside whilst still being in the village. As you enter the property through the metal gates you are greeted by a lovely patio area, to the side there is one of the gardens which are a real asset to the property.
Inside you are welcomed by a large tiled hall which which leads to

Agents comments
During this time, I have enjoyed coming to the property to sit in the garden with the current owners. It is a quiet spot and feels very private. The house is in wonderful condition and is much loved. It is immaculately presented and would be a stunning home for anyone looking for something a little unusual in a village location.
Viewers are asked to contact the office to discuss the property. A video walk around is available on request.
