Another day, another slice of rock and roll royalty hits the market. From Mick Jagger’s Marylebone home to a townhouse on a street beloved by famous musicians, there’s no shortage of A-lister-approved properties up for sale – including this breathtaking country home, which was formerly owned by Robert Plant, the lead singer of Led Zeppelin.

Inside Robert Plant’s Home In Monmouth, Wales

Kitchen with wooden floorboards, sage green cabinets, black granite worktops and an AGA

While plenty of celebrities favour dazzling city residences, others opt for more secluded retreats – like The Argoed, a Grade II* listed country home in Monmouth which was previously owned by Robert Plant.

The ivy-clad property isn’t just brimming with music history, however: it was also home to the chairman of the Great British Railway; it’s where George Bernard Shaw is thought to have penned multiple plays; and it was even visited by Charles I during the Civil War. In fact, it dates back as far as the Jacobean period – although it’s now been meticulously refurbished.

Inside, you’ll find seven bedrooms, four bathrooms, and five impressive reception rooms including a drawing room, a formal dining room, and a dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room complete with a handsome AGA. The ground floor also contains a utility room, a boot room, and an integral garage.

Head upstairs and you can check out the wood-panelled guest suite and the additional guest bedrooms, or take a look at the vast principal suite, which spans the entire southeast side of the house. Expect glorious views from every room – whether you admire the estate’s incredible 10-acre plot (which happens to feature a Japanese garden, an arboretum, and a stable block) or the rolling hills in the distance. It’s no wonder that this particular property is one of the finest private residences in the Wye Valley…
