8 Bedroom character property in the heart of Talgarth offering spacious living accommodation, off road parking & scope for potential B&B. Upgrading would be required

Property Details

Location Talgarth is conveniently situated between the market towns of Hay on Wye and Brecon, and offers local amenities including a Co-Op supermarket. The larger town of Brecon is approximately 10 miles away and offers a good selection of shops, supermarkets, cultural and leisure facilties and schools. The recent construction of a bypass has diverted through traffic around the town. Talgarth is within the Brecon Beacons National Park and is the venue for the annual Festival of the Black Mountains, held in late August.
Description The Old Upper Lion is a substantial period property with later extensions located just off the centre of the town. It has previously been used as a residential home but due to the nature and size of the accommodation would lend itself to use as an extended family home or as a Bed & Breakfast (subject to obtaining the necessary consents). Part of the property may also be suitable for a separate annexe if required. Internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the size of the accommodation and the scope it offers.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on January 15, 2023

    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: obtained from Ofcom on January 15, 2023

    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

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on March 19, 2020 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
