Description
Welcome to Berth Gron (BG), meaning "Round Hedge" in English, a secluded Georgian farmhouse approximately 1820 with earlier origins. Nestled in the ancient Parish of Llanfabon, this charming property offers a unique blend of historical significance and modern comfort. The property sits on just under 3/4 acre, surrounded by farmland, mainly grazed. The main garden is south-facing with a walled kitchen garden and a natural spring in the southwest corner. Access is via a long picturesque private farm lane with extensive farmyard parking. BG is featured in a book of Old Welsh Folk Tales, specifically the Llanfabon Changeling. Inside, the ground floor features three garages with space for up to four cars, including a vehicle service pit with steps in the lower garage. There are two elegant living rooms, ideal for relaxation and hosting guests. The kitchen boasts bespoke handmade old pine kitchen units, an oil-fired Aga, and an electric Aga companion cooker. The spacious dining room is perfect for family meals and gatherings. The flag stoned conservatory/utility/boot room includes floor-to-ceiling cupboards and drying areas. Additional features include a large drawing room in the former dairy, two large working Inglenook fireplaces with bread oven recesses, walk-in cold larder storage/pantry, and part original stone staircase to the first floor. On the first floor, you'll find a luxurious master bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, two additional well-sized bedrooms, and a stylish family bathroom. Additional features include a retained stone alcove formerly a spiral staircase, a full-height "hidden" bathroom cupboard.
The second floor offers a versatile open space ready for transformation into a home office, playroom, or additional living area. There is also a large boarded loft space with extensive views above the former dairy, ripe for conversion. For sale for the first time in 55 years, BG was purchased by the vendor's grandfather, a Second World War bomber pilot, in 1970 and has been owned by the family since. Prior to 1970, it was a working farm of 40 acres. The property was extensively renovated in 1997/1998. Nearby attractions include the old Parish Church of Llanfabon, named after St. Mabon, a 6th-century Cornish saint. The original medieval church was replaced in the 1840s by the current church, which is still in use. There is also a nearby disused stone quarry, largely filled in, which had a horse-drawn railway line linking with the Taff Vale Railway. Stone from the quarry was used for BG house and garden walls. This property is a perfect blend of history, style, comfort, and practicality, making it an ideal home for modern family living.
