Standing out from the crowd in Pontllanfraith

While detached living has always been a much sought-after commodity, it's becoming a rarity in the new homes market - but happily not at Llys Ffynnon, where Redrow has a choice of stand alone properties.

Although the demand for detached living has never slowed down, current government planning regulations to maximise land use mean developers are building fewer detached homes - which can lead to disappointment for home-buyers with aspirations of owning their own ‘separate space.'

Julie Ells, area sales manager for Redrow Homes (South Wales), said: "We have a range of four-bedroom detached properties available at Llys Ffynnon; a development surrounded by beautiful countryside.

"The detached properties have been particularly sought-after, helped in part by the fact that truly detached, brand new homes are increasingly rare and will particularly appeal to families. There are a good local amenities and road access to local towns and cities, with Cardiff and Newport both just 20 minutes away by car."

Buyers in search of a home that sets them apart can choose from the four-bedroom Hawkshead, Kelsall and Lynton homes.

The Hawkshead is a luxury family home, with a generous lounge and separate dining room with French doors opening up to the impressive rear garden. A spacious kitchen with utility room, a cloakroom and storage make up the rest of the ground floor. The first floor consists of a master bedroom with en-suite shower room, and three further bedrooms, in addition to a fully fitted stylish family bathroom.

Life in The Kelsall is the epitome of luxury family living. The feature bay window creates a light and airy lounge, while the adjoining dining room is perfect for formal occasions. The grand kitchen with contemporary units and breakfast area leads to a serene garden to the rear. The master bedroom boasts a modern en-suite shower room, while three additional bedrooms and a family bathroom occupy the remainder or the first floor.

The Lynton is a four bedroom family home with a generously proportioned, modern kitchen with breakfast area, a separate dining area which lends itself to more formal dining occasions, and an expansive lounge which is perfect for entertaining or relaxing with a view of the garden. Upstairs, the master bedroom and en-suite shower room are joined by three additional bedrooms and a stylish fitted family bathroom.

The nearest railway station is located in Ystrad Mynach, approximately five miles away, connecting the main Inter-City service throughout the UK, and Cardiff International Airport is easily accessible by car within an hour.

A selection of three and four-bedroom homes is currently available at Llys Ffynnon priced from £164,995 to £259,995.
