9 bedroom detached house for sale

An Exceptional Country Estate – First Time to Market

Nestled within approximately 17.8 acres of enchanting private grounds, this outstanding estate presents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly unique and much-loved home – never before offered for sale, offering 3 separate dwellings within the estate, providing up to 9 bedrooms. Cwmpibau is a fine example of a neo-Georgian country house, blending classical symmetry and proportions with the practicalities of mid-20th-century family living. Built in 1972 by the current family, the property echoes the elegance of earlier gentleman’s residences while offering the generous space expected of a substantial rural home.

Approached via a sweeping private driveway, the estate offers total privacy and tranquillity. Once open to the public, the beautifully landscaped grounds gently unfold across rolling countryside, leading down to a meandering stream. With paddocks, woodland walks, and secluded garden areas, the grounds evoke a real sense of serenity and grandeur.

The main residence features elegant reception rooms, fine detailing, and a flexible layout. Accommodation currently comprises five bedrooms (two with en-suite), a formal dining room, sitting room, library, kitchen/breakfast room, utility, and boot room – with potential to create a sixth bedroom if desired.

Also within the grounds is a charming two-bedroom stone Gardener’s Cottage, sympathetically extended in the 1980s. Ideal for guest accommodation, multi-generational living, or holiday let potential (subject to consents). A second cottage, Pontgareg, dates back to 1708, and has the potential to be a quaint one bedroom cottage, idyllically nestled in the woodland near the bridge.

This is a rare and exclusive property in a magical setting – a haven for wildlife lovers, outdoor enthusiasts, or those simply seeking peace and seclusion. Countryside living at its finest.
