The property is nestled on over an acre of land and includes several substantial stone outbuildings that present a variety of possibilities for enhancement. The cottage itself is a traditional Welsh long house, which is currently in need of refurbishment. This provides a unique opportunity for the new owner to infuse their personal style into the home while preserving its character. Inside, the layout features three spacious double bedrooms, a living room, kitchen/breakfast room, and a bathroom, all waiting for updates and modern finishes. The extensive grounds include multiple stone outbuildings that could be repurposed to suit various needs—be it additional accommodation for family members, workspaces for hobbies or business endeavors, or even studios for creative pursuits.
