We are pleased to have received instructions to offer for sale this well looked after rural property. The accommodation which retains original features is highlighted on the attached floor plan. Prospective purchasers will note that the large bedroom on the ground floor is suitable for division into 2 bedrooms if so desired.
The land is a haven for wildlife with 2 ponds and stream. Part of the land has recently been planted with native tree species which will be evident on inspection.
The furthermost hay meadows abut the unclassified lane and are suitable for livestock grazing. The outbuildings are multi-purpose with the traditional outbuilding suitable for conversion to additional accommodation subject to the necessary planning consent.
Gistfaen is about 320 metres above sea level and has the benefit of panoramic views over the surrounding countryside. The smallholding is approached over a council-maintained road which leads to 4 other properties. The village of Ysbyty Ystwyth provides access to the B4343 Devils Bridge to Pontrhydfendigaid road and is within 2 miles travelling distance. There are limited local amenities at the nearby villages to include primary school, village shop (at Pontrhydfendigaid) and public houses. Aberystwyth is 18 miles or so travelling distance on the coast and market town of Tregaron is some 10 miles to the south. Both the aforementioned towns have a wider range of amenities to include secondary schools. The tourist attractions of Devils Bridge and delightful walks on the Hafod estate are also nearby.
