Property Details

Located in a beautiful part of Breconshire and just outside the National Park, with views over stunning scenery to the distant mountains; which include the Brecon Beacons and Black Mountains, is this five bedroom, detached home with barn, granary and equestrian facilities. The layout of the property lends itself to being divided to create a separate annex if required.

The gated driveway is directly accessed from the quiet lane on which the property is situated and offers parking space for multiple vehicles. There are two entrances at the front, one of which would serve as the way into the annex if the property were to be split. The current main entrance is via a stable door and into a hallway with flagstone flooring, space for furniture and built-in cupboards (including an under stairs cupboard).

On the right is the main reception room. At over twenty-eight metres squared, this is a welcoming space with windows overlooking the front with the stunning views beyond and one window to the rear. The room features hardwood flooring, a wood-burning stove, painted ceiling beams, radiators and a mixture of ceiling and wall lights. A great place in which to relax or entertain friends and family.

Across the hallway and you enter into a similar sized space which houses the kitchen facilities and offers plenty of space for dining and other occasional furniture. The flagstone flooring continues in here from the hall and there are more beams in the ceiling. As well as the plentiful space for your own furniture and appliances, there is a range cooker and a Belfast sink set into a cupboard unit. This sits under a wide (nearly the width of the room!) window offering surely one of the best views from a sink anywhere in the country! The outlook from here - as from so many windows in the property - is truly breathtaking and will even make doing the washing up a pleasure…

Adjacent to the kitchen/dining room is what is currently set up as a playroom but which would form one of the reception rooms should this part of the house be separated to create an annex/separate living quarters. Across a hallway, with the second entrance from the front, is another reception/dining room. There is also a cloakroom with wc accessed via the playroom.
The stairs in the primary entrance hall lead up to the first floor and three of the five bedrooms, the principle one of which offers views to the front through two dormer style windows and one to the rear via a skylight. The room also benefits from carpeted flooring, radiator heating and some exposed original beams in part of the ceiling. There is plenty of room for multiple pieces of furniture aside from the bed given the generous proportions of the space (akin to that of the main reception room below). The en-suite features a corner shower cubicle, wc, sink and skylight.

The remaining two bedrooms in this part of the house both enjoy views out to the front, one has built-in wardrobes and both share use of the family bathroom with its bath, sink, wc and two skylights letting in lots of natural light.

Another set of stairs situated in the secondary hallway leads up to the remaining two bedrooms which both feature exposed beams, have fitted wardrobe/storage space and share use of a bathroom. There is also a cupboard on the landing offering further storage.

The property sits in approximately eleven and a half acres of mainly grassland with mature trees and hedgerow. The barn is of a steel portal frame with concrete block and profile cladding. Inside, it is currently separated into four loose boxes, a workshop/store and a livestock pen and offers plenty of storage. In addition to the barn, there is further storage available in the form of the granary which is attached to the property but only accessible to it via a door to the rear.

This unique property offers rural living with easy access to local amenities and towns and the larger towns of Brecon around eight miles to the south and Builth around fourteen to the north. The nearest village is Llyswen with its petrol station, village pub and primary school.

There are myriad opportunities for further development - including the aforementioned annex, the potential for which can clearly be seen from the floor plan - with the versatile living space both inside and out. It is immaculately presented throughout with most rooms benefitting from the far-reaching views across open countryside. Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate what is on offer.

    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
