Description - A rare opportunity has arisen to purchase a recently renovated 3 bedroom, 4 reception, 3 bath/shower room smallholding set in a quiet valley some 4.3 acres to the south east of the market town of Lampeter. The property is set approximately 60 metres back from a tranquil side public road offering peace and privacy with no near neighbours. We believe the property potentially dates as far back as the eighteenth century. The current owners purchased the farm some nine years ago and have sympathetically restored the property to a high standard. The Barn array location offers a typical Welsh farm 'L' shape.

The outbuildings provide capacious space allowing for the accommodation, amongst other things, of tractor and farm machinery and hay.

The stone barn is currently used as a workshop but has planning permission potential.

The countryside views are majestic, offering sights to infinity with very few other buildings visible. Peace and tranquility are assured.
To the south east, the three mountain sisters , Bannau Brycheiniog, Picws Du and Waun Lefrith dominate the skyline.

The Accommodation: - Inside accommodation comprises three reception rooms plus an enormous open plan kitchen diner, large glass room, three bedrooms and three bath/shower rooms. Sympathetic refurbishment removed a 4th bedroom which could easily be reinstated should the accommodation be required.

Sympathetic refurbishment has heavily utilised oak in the doors, architraves, skirtings, beams and roof trusses. Flooring has largely used porcelain floor tiles mimicking stripped oak floor boards to the ground floors and oak blocks to the first floor bedrooms.

During the renovation, considerable thought was given to the costs of heating the property. Walls were insulated using plasterboard backed by 75 mm Kingspan for the majority of the property with a double layer being used in the kitchen/diner. Three of the rooms can be heated by wood burners for which free fuel is available if you make use of the fallen trees on the land.

Kitchen - A huge and grand family space made for socialising and entertaining vaulting into the oak beamed roof space above. A minstrel gallery offers a view of the proceedings as it meanders to the galleried bedroom above.

Heated by three media: under floor heating fed from a separate boiler; a woodburner and an LPG two oven Aga. Floors are quarried stone.

Four bifold doors offer unobstructed views over the enveloping countryside and lead to the front stone walled patio area.

Dining Room - A magnificent open plan room vaulted in to a ceiling space supported by oak trusses. The space is overlooked by the minstrel gallery above.
