ABOUT THE PROPERTY Located to the historic heart of Ystradowen village within yards of the Parish Church and village pub, Church Farm is an extremely deceptive property that must be viewed for the extent of the living and bedroom accommodation to be most fully appreciated.

To the heart of the home is an open-plan, luxurious kitchen-breakfast room with granite worktops, matching central island and traditionally styled, two-oven gas fired Aga.
