DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY From a covered entrance porch, a broad central hallway has doors leading to the lounge, study and kitchen whilst a staircase leads to first floor bedrooms. One further door opens to ground floor cloakroom. The lounge is positioned to the front of the property and has a broad, bay window looking over the front garden and cul de sac onto Llantrisant Common and hillsides to the distance. The large kitchen breakfast room and the adjacent dining room are positioned to the rear of the property, both of them having doors opening to the patio seating area. The kitchen itself is of two distinct sections, the kitchen area including a good range of storage units and integrated appliances with an adjacent dining area. A door connects from this to the dining room which, in turn, has a further door leading to the lounge.
At first floor level are the four double bedrooms. The master bedroom is a good double room with dressing area linking in to an en-suite bathroom. The second principal bedroom, also positioned to the front of the property, enjoys the same sweeping views over the surrounding common and countryside. The two additional double rooms both overlook the rear garden, so too the bathroom.
GARDENS & GROUNDS 8 Maes Cefn Mabley occupies an elevated plot to the corner of this quiet cul-de-sac. A drop-down curb leads to a generous off-road parking space fronting the detached double garage. Steps lead from here through the lawned front garden to the principal entrance doorway. The garden to the front of the property, enjoying a westerly aspect, is mainly laid to lawn and extends to the rear of the garage. A gated entrance to one side runs via a paved path leading to the rear garden. The rear garden is a sheltered, south facing space, there being a broad, deep seating area overlooked by the kitchen and accessed from both kitchen and dining room. Further steps lead from here to a raised section of lawned garden continuing to the boundary fence.
The detached double garage is accessed via twin up and over doors and is approx. 5.5m x 5.6m, has electric lighting and power connected. The property borders public playing fields and, to the opposite side, Llantrisant Rugby Club.
TENURE & SERVICES Freehold. All mains services connect to the property. Metered water supply. Gas fired central heating boiler.
DIRECTIONS From M4 Junction 34, follow A4119 in a northerly direction towards Llantrisant. Continue through the traffic lights by the Castell Mynach public house and drive straight across at the later roundabout. At the traffic lights just beyond Talbot Green retail park turn right at the cross roads towards Llantrisant. Pass the turning to Llantrisant leisure centre (to you right) and take the next left turning signposted for Llantrisant. Travel through the village passing the Cross Keys public house to your left to find the turning for Maes Cefn Mabley after a further 300 metres, beyond Maes Glas vet surgery. Continue into the development turning into the first cul-de-sac to your right to find number 8 to one corner.
