A separate utility room connects internally to the substantial L-shaped garage, which houses the central heating and hot-water systems.

Upstairs, the first floor reveals an impressive master suite, complete with a larger-than-average wardrobe and en-suite shower room. Two further spacious bedrooms offer remarkable versatility; one features under-eaves storage and a built-in double wardrobe and is currently used as a library, while the other – positioned above the garage – serves as a music and hobby room. A luxurious family bathroom, fitted with a spa bath, corner shower, WC, and washbasin, provides a relaxing retreat for the household.

Externally, the property continues to impress. A generous driveway leads to the garage with an electric entrance door, ensuring easy access and secure storage.

The property sits within a modern and well-presented development on the southern fringes of Llanwrtyd Wells, one of the smallest towns in Mid Wales. Nestled beside the River Irfon and with a population of around 1,551, the town proudly claims the title of Britain’s smallest. Positioned on the A483 between Llandovery and Builth Wells, it enjoys easy access to the Tywi and Irfon valleys and is surrounded by some of the region’s most picturesque landscapes. Llanwrtyd Wells grew as a Victorian spa destination following the discovery of the healing waters of Ffynnon Ddrewllyd in 1732, and the spring still exists today. The town is renowned for its unique and internationally celebrated events, including the World Bog Snorkelling Championships and the Man versus Horse Marathon, which bring a lively atmosphere to this otherwise peaceful rural community. Just 13 miles to the north lies the vibrant market town of Builth Wells, set on the banks of the Rivers Wye and Irfon within the historic boundaries of Brecknockshire. Surrounded by exceptional countryside, Builth Wells is best known for hosting the Royal Welsh Show - the largest agricultural show in Europe - which attracts more than 240,000 visitors each year and brings a wealth of culture, commerce and activity to the area.
