But there’s a reason Old Tregyrnog Farmhouse may not be your dream home – it’s right next to the M4.

Just ten minutes away from Cardiff in the village of St Brides-super-Ely, the home has optimal transport links via road or rail.

But it’s proximity to junction 34 might give some prospective buyers pause for thought.

However, the seller insists that despite its controversial location, the property still has “uninterrupted 360-degree countryside views”.

Access to the home is provided by an electric-gated entrance, leading on to six acres of private land, with ample parking.

The expanse of outdoor space includes everything from manicured lawns to vegetable patches – and even beehives.

The 3G sports pitch is currently can be used either as a tennis court or football pitch – while the swimming pool opens directly onto the gardens, making it “the perfect setting for summer pool parties”.

Moving inside, visitors are greeted with a posh hallway, featuring an ornate spiral staircase and huge windows.

The main kitchen serves as the “heart of the home” – and comes complete with state-of-the-art gadgets and a “vast” central island.

If that’s wasn’t enough, there’s another full-sized kitchen – plus a third serving the gym and leisure suite.

Meanwhile, residents can entertain in a number of different living and dining rooms – and a whopping eight of the nine bedrooms come with their own ensuite.

The listing on Fine and Country South Wales states: “Designed for both grand entertaining and intimate family life, this exceptional home boasts state-of-the-art amenities, extensive leisure facilities, and a layout perfect for multigenerational living.

“With its private, gated entrance and unrivalled panoramic views, this is a rare opportunity to own a spectacular countryside retreat just minutes from Cardiff.”

It adds that the “exquisite home”, which is close to several top schools, represents the pinnacle of luxury country living”.

Prospective buyers are invited to view the property in person or virtually.

It comes after an impressive Georgian stately home in Somerset also hit the market – for an enormous £6,750,000.

The estate, Harptree Court, had previously been used as the location for the third and fourth series of the BBC’s Great British Bake Off.
