The Property - If ever there was a property which was more about the lifestyle it offers, than the stone, timber and mortar it has been built with, then this is it! While Cwm Gwyddel itself is a beautiful, well presented, detached, 5 bedroom period house, it is the isolated location, the stunning encompassing scenery, the natural stream, the adjoining Welsh countryside and the wonderful gardens/grounds totalling approximately 0.7 acres, which will really spark your imagination. A million miles from the hustle and bustle of city life, if you have dreamed about moving to the countryside, having no near neighbours and your own slice of the 'good life' with a few sheep, chickens and perhaps a pony, well Cwm Gwyddel could allow that dream to become a reality!

Cwm Gwyddel is available with no onward chain and is an impressive, Grade II Listed house, which oozes character and history dating back circa 15th century and has been upgraded and lovingly maintained by the current owners and offers spacious accommodation spanning over 2 floors to include 5 bedrooms and 2 bathroom on the first floor, while on the ground floor there is a an entrance hall, a useful utility room, kitchen and 5 reception rooms. The drawing room boasts a large and original open fireplace, while the sitting room has the addition of a wood-burning stove. On the right wing, a sizeable reception/hobby room with a high, 16ft ceiling offers a variety of purposes, from a music and crafts room to a home run business space with its own private entrance door. The garden room, which is accessed off the kitchen is flooded with natural light and is the perfect spot to entertain throughout the year, especially within the summer months.

Outside, the property is approached via a private lane that leads to a gated gravelled driveway providing ample parking and is set in approx. 0.7 acres of private gardens and grounds. The main garden lies to the front of the property, which is wonderfully maintained with a large area of lawn, flowered and hedged borders and raised vegetable plots enclosed by a picket fence. The gardens also include a pretty brook with a private bridge providing direct access to neighbouring woodland and local footpaths. In addition, Cwm Gwyddel includes a Grade II Listed, 2 storey stone barn with a part open frontage, a detached studio/office installed with power and lighting and a detached garage, which was formerly used as a stable block. Beyond the house a gateway opens to a track leading to a vast area of hill land and owing to the grazing rights which are attached to the Cwm Gwyddel, the owners have access to walk, ride or drive along many miles of tracks.

Offering the tranquillity so many of us desire, Cwm Gwyddel could be just what you are looking for if peace, natural wildlife, beautiful countryside and rolling hills as far as the eye can see is what you are after.

Property information from this agent

Places of interest

    When you combine solicitor’s fees, survey costs, stamp duty and then throw in a hefty estate agent’s bill, moving home can become a very costly business. Holters use effective modern marketing tools but cast aside the unnecessary and expensive practices, meaning our clients never have to break the bank to get the highest quality marketing. Having worked for traditional estate agents, founders William and Karl had long thought a number of the methods currently in practice are both outdated and extremely expensive. Their vision was to create a modern agency that offers excellent value for money, while delivering a first-class marketing package and so Holters was born.
