Description - Tan Y Ffridd Cottage offers a unique country home. The original part of the cottage is believed to date back to the late 17th Century and has in more recent times been tastefully and comprehensively extended to provide the present high quality living accommodation. This wonderful country home offers a blend of both traditional character and contemporary themes. The original cottage boasts a wealth of exposed wall and ceiling beams, oak flooring and solid oak internal doors which creates a charming atmosphere. The ground floor accommodation is particularly inspiring with a welcoming kitchen/breakfast room. There is a splendid drawing room with a JETMASTER wood burner. This room then opens out onto the period style conservatory with under floor heating and its stunning views out over the land and open countryside beyond. From the drawing room a secret door then gives access to a stunning family dining room, which is particularly versatile having previously been used as a music room and offers multiple uses. On the first floor, the master bedroom suite provides a dressing room and en-suite bathroom. The remaining three bedrooms are then served by the spacious bath/shower room.

Outside, the gardens are rather charming with formal lawned areas. A sizeable pond and generous grounds. To the rear of the house there is courtyard parking, multiple car garaging and a separate building which contains the self contained two bedroom annexe/guest accommodation. In addition, there are adjacent stores and a very useful workshop.

The land surrounds the house and is divided by the driveway with the two front parcels being generally level and the rear parcel being banked. The land offers various livestock uses and could be easily sub-divided if required.
