Description: - Rhyd Y Ceirts comprises an attractive residential smallholding comprising a detached two storey residence that has been extended in the past to provide deceptively spacious accommodation and currently affords 3 double bedrooms, 3 reception rooms, kitchen, family bathroom and a separate cloakroom. We would advise that further works are required to the residence. The property has the benefit of a newly fitted kitchen but completion works are necessary and has been insulated and a new central heating system has been installed.

Approached from the roadside, a single track lane, also a public footpath, leads to the farm buildings and the property which is tucked away in a very private setting. As a former dairy farm there are extensive farm buildings included within the sale of Rhyd Y Ceirts which subject to gaining the necessary consents may have conversion appeal but is currently used for equestrian and livestock purposes.

Farm Buildings: - A great feature to this residential smallholding are the extensive farm buildings which comprises a combination of traditional and slightly more modern outbuildings which are currently used for equestrian and livestock purposes. The buildings are described in more detail and some may have conversion appeal, subject to gaining the necessary consents.

The Land: - A small paddock is located to the rear of the property and is laid to permanent pasture, with one boundary being a stream. This paddock is easily accessible from the garden and outbuildings and is ideally suited as a pony paddock or for livestock.
N.B. There is a public footpath along the lane leading to the property.

Property Classification: Band E (online data).

A public footpath does follow the farm lane, but does not cross in front of the residence or the farm buildings.

General Remarks: - Very rarely do properties such as Rhyd Y Ceirts appear on the open market which enjoy a very appealing countryside location surrounded by open farmland. The current occupier has certainly improved the property having installed a new central heating system, solar panels and a newly fitted kitchen but there is certainly scope to further enhance the property if desired. To fully appreciate the location and the considerable potential that the residence and the extensive range of farm building could offer an early inspection is strongly recommended.
