Ref: PRG10253 Viewing Instructions: Strictly By Appointment Only General Description

A rare find. If you are looking for seclusion, to get away from the pace of modern day living, to enjoy the sight and sound of nature and to watch the setting sun over the hills of rural , to listen to the owls at dusk and walk through the bluebell wood, bathe in the salmon pool and picnic in wild orchid meadows then come and look at this gem of a property.

Llethrgneuen dates back over 200 years. The original farmhouse was added to in late Victorian times and the adjoining barn converted into a Studio Annexe. A further detached stone barn had consent for conversion to residential use but this has now lapsed.

The property is secluded but accessible being half a mile off a country lane and accessed along its own driveway. The house commands fine views down the Yscir Fawr Valley and enjoys a wonderful sheltered south western aspect.

The land includes 8 Acres of natural woodland together with grazing pastureland and riverside meadows. The land is grazed on an informal basis by a neighbouring farmer, whilst the wood provides an abundance of fuel for heating both the house and annexe, supplemented by oil and electric heating. The pure spring water provides ample supply for domestic purposes.
