Situated in a scenic riverside location and enveloped by lush woodland, this distinctive detached residence, formerly part of an old mill, presents a unique opportunity to acquire a piece of local heritage. Having been cherished by the same family for nearly six decades, Melin Caiach House is a spacious three-bedroom home set on an expansive plot that includes a paddock, garages, and outbuildings—ideal for families or individuals seeking privacy and potential business or workshop spaces. The property’s character is evident with its original stone features visible in the garden.
Inside, the house boasts much of its historic charm, characterized by a generous dual-aspect living room/diner with French doors leading to the garden, a well-sized kitchen, and a welcoming hallway filled with mid-century details. The first floor accommodates three bedrooms and a family bathroom equipped with a separate shower and sauna—a rare find.
Although the interior would benefit from some updates to achieve modern standards, it offers substantial potential for customization to create a bespoke living space tailored to individual preferences. Outside, the maturely landscaped grounds provide serene outdoor spaces perfect for relaxation or recreation. The extensive paddock and various outbuildings further enhance possibilities for hobbies or even storage solutions (subject to permissions).
Conveniently located near amenities in the village of Nelson and Ystrad Mynach—both offering shops, cafes, schools, and services—the property also benefits from solid transport links via rail services to Cardiff and major roadways connecting to surrounding areas. This property strikes an enticing balance of historical significance, abundant space, and exciting renovation potential.
