Description

Located in the charming village of Capel Seion, this detached two-bedroom bungalow, known as Yr Hen Efail, presents a unique opportunity for prospective buyers. Positioned on a spacious plot away from the main road, the property features a private tarmac driveway with sufficient parking for multiple vehicles and includes a detached garage. The generously sized garden enveloping the bungalow not only ensures privacy but also offers an ideal canvass for those interested in landscaping or expanding the home (subject to planning permissions). The property boasts a conservatory that extends into the garden, complete with a patio area and a tranquil fishpond—perfect for outdoor leisure and gatherings. While the bungalow is in good condition overall and has been well cared for by its current owners, it does require some modernization, enabling buyers to customize it according to their preferences. Additionally, solar panels installed on the property currently generate around £2,000 annually through the Feed-in Tariff scheme, providing a promising financial benefit. Capel Seion enjoys proximity to Aberystwyth, just four miles away, where residents can access various amenities and attractions. This location strikes a fine balance between serene countryside living and convenient town accessibility. Moreover, nearby tourist spots like Devil's Bridge offer stunning vistas of Rheidol Valley. In summary, Yr Hen Efail is an appealing proposition for anyone seeking a well-located bungalow ripe for transformation or expansion while still enjoying its current amenities and outdoor charm.
