THE LAND

the land is divided into three distinct blocks with the first area surrounding Abernaint incorporating Abernaint Fach having stream boundary to the Southern Extent and road frontages to the Northern extent and western side. with loft over The second block of land of approximately 98 acres is lean to loose box provided on the northern side of the farm having roadside frontage to both sides for ease of access and modern farm HAY BARN COMPLEX machinery, together with a parcel of land of approximately 56 To the side of the property is a Hay barn complex with leanto acres on the opposite side on the B4302 being attractive cubicle housing gravelled based river meadows with some areas of fenced off mature woodland, being valuable in amenity purposes and an asset for agricultural support schemes. This land has extensive frontage on to the mid reaches of the Cothi river although does not include the fishing rights and also is bisected by the River Annell being an important tributary to the Cothi river on which we understand there are fishing rights.

A feature of this farm is it is bisected by a number of streams for livestock watering purposes together with immediate valleys providing shelter. As the farm has historically been incorporated in Tir Gofal and Glasdir Schemes, the fences are well maintained with the majority of hedge and fence lines being double fenced with timber gates and is a notable farm for livestock production.

The farm was originally part of the Edwinsford estate and resembles the traditional estate farm effect with many mature oak trees reflecting a park land setting. Abernaint Fach

Abernaint Fach is former ruined homestead which was a traditional welsh longhouse with pine end and part front wall remaining in situ and in our opinion deserving of reinstatement (subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents) SERVICES The farm is serviced by mains electricity, mains water, private drainage to farmhouse, oil fired central heating via Stanley range.
