A CHARMING family home overlooking a lake has been put up for sale in the heart of Gwent.
Golog Y Mynydd is three-bedroomed detached house in Abercarn, surrounded by forested hills and an atmosphere of tranquility.
It is the perfect property for people looking for peace and quiet, or nature-lovers who will enjoy the ample hiking and mountain-biking opportunities nearby, including the ever-popular Cwmcarn Forest Drive.
Cariad Property of Newbridge are managing the sale, and have placed a guide price of £450,000 on the home.
Surrounded by woodland, the grounds of this property are the star of the show.

The house is accessible via a long driveway, which opens out to a patio and lawned area in front.
Behind the home are "generously-sized" rear gardens, with "beautifully manicured" hedges and another patio area.
Below them, you'll find an ornamental pond and there is plenty of shade afforded by the natural treeline.
Making your way inside Golog Y Mynydd, the "welcoming" central hallway leads off to the "spacious" kitchen and dining area, which offers views of the rear grounds.
The "simply superb" family room and lounge area includes sliding doors to the balcony, and a "wall-length stone feature wall" that houses the fireplace.
Another ground-floor room opens onto the conservatory, is currently being used as a sitting room, but could be used as a bedroom.
