LOCATION Despite its apparent very rural location Weedon House is very conveniently positioned for local services.

The property is a mile from Risca town centre where there is a good selection of shops, banks, pubs, restaurants, take-aways and several super markets including a major 24 hour store.

Newport is approximately 5 miles away and Cardiff about 18 miles.

The M4 motorway is just 3 miles away and there is a rail station at Crosskeys less than a mile away with links to Cardiff and beyond. Bus routes are within 300 yards.

There are all levels of schools nearby - 4 comprehensives within 5 mile radius as well as nursery, infants and junior schools.

The local doctorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surgery is just half a mile away and there are major hospitals in Newport and Ystard Mynach, both just 5 miles away.

The post code, NP11 6HA, is unique - so type that into Google Maps to explore the area more fully (note: currently on Google Maps it looks like the lane doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t extend to the house - rest assured, it does).
