As you meander up Aberpergwm Cottages Road, surrounded by woodland and a tranquil stream on the left hand side, No. 2 Aberpergym Cottage is accessed over a single carriageway bridge.
The property is accessed via a modern stable door on the gable end that leads into the entrance hallway, with window to the side, slate tiled flooring and has solid wood doors giving access to the utility room/shower room and lounge.
The utility room/shower offers space for two appliances, a window to the gable end, tiled flooring, half height contemporary tiling to walls, a white vanity wash hand basin and an archway leading beyond the appliances into the shower area. Within the shower area there is a corner low level WC, double shower with shower curtain, full height tiling to all wet areas, extractor fan and an obscure glazed window.
The impressive sized lounge not only offers plenty of space but also retains many original features. It has a continuation of the same slate tiled flooring as the hallway, offers two windows to the front providing light and views of the front garden, exposed wooden ceiling beams, an exposed stone fireplace and has an open tread solid wood staircase giving access to the first floor accommodation. To the rear of the room a doorway leads into the kitchen/breakfast room.
The kitchen/breakfast room is another generous space with a magnificent exposed stone fireplace and exposed stone alcoves. It has been fitted with units sympathetically chosen to be in keeping with a traditional country cottage. It offers an array of base units, freestanding range cooker with splashback tiling above, a stainless steel sink unit with a window above, a continuation of the slate tiled flooring and a continuation of the exposed ceiling beams. The space can easily accommodate a large table and chairs and has a pedestrian door giving access to the rear gardens.
To the first floor the landing space offers three doorways, two of which lead to bedroom accommodation and the third leads to a good sized storage cupboard. Bedroom one is to the left hand side of the landing area and is an incredibly generous sized double bedroom. The room has two windows to the front, some exposed ceiling joists, a built in storage and airing cupboard and features solid wood flooring. Continuing beyond the bedroom area via an archway is the dressing area/study space. The area makes for an ideal home office and/or dressing room with a continuation of the same flooring and a window to the front.
Off the dressing room/study a doorway leads into the bathroom. This bright and airy space has been fitted with a matching contemporary white three piece suite comprising; panel bath, low level WC and vanity wash hand basin. There is a large window to the gable end offering far ranging views and a wall mounted chrome towel rail.
Bedroom two is another generous sized double bedroom offering an abundance of bespoke fitted wardrobes and shelving. There is a window to the rear providing views of the gardens and has a continuation of the solid wood flooring.
Outside the property shares a single carriage way bridge with the adjoining neighbour over a small stream into the forecourt parking area offering parking for three/four cars. The current vendors previously applied for planning permission which has now lapsed to build a garage.
To the front of the property is an established mature flowered garden. To the gable end, there is a patio area and free standing concrete outhouse. The remaining gardens and land wrap around the property with a level area ideal for development (subject the planning permission) accessed via a wide metal gate. Winding pathways have been created to gain access to much of the land thus creating a secret garden/natures playground aspect to the rear. There is a large open area to the back bordered by forestry trees and fencing. To the far right hand corner there is a natural waterfall accessed via a half height wooden gate.

Broadband availability and predicted speed
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
