Blaen Nant Melyn offers a unique opportunity for those interested in a blend of historical charm and the potential for further enhancement. Nestled in a tranquil, secluded location within the breathtaking upper Towy Valley, this property boasts a rich heritage dating back to at least 1785, believed to be part of the Cawdor Estate. The traditional stone and slate farmhouse, alongside an original two-storey barn, has been thoughtfully restored by the current owners, preserving key features such as the wattle and daub chimney breast and slate countertops in the kitchen. Recent upgrades include a modern Air Source Pump heating system and enhanced insulation, providing a solid foundation for future improvements.
As you enter through a flower-adorned entrance, you are greeted by an inviting hall with classic character elements such as exposed beams and stone flooring. The layout includes a snug parlour with an open fire and a rustic farmhouse kitchen featuring modern appliances seamlessly integrated with traditional design. A comfortable sitting room incorporates natural materials like English Oak and Redwood flooring, adding warmth to the home.
The first-floor principal bedroom is spacious and bright, offering access to a raised deck area with stunning views—a perfect spot for morning coffee or evening relaxation. Additional accommodation comprises two more bedrooms, one suitable as an office or dressing room, complemented by en-suite facilities.
Outdoor spaces include an enclosed rear garden for privacy and a picturesque front walled garden that enhances the property's cottage appeal. A wooden outbuilding provides additional storage possibilities while retaining historical features that add to its charm.
This off-grid property also benefits from solar power and has access to surrounding nature trails and stunning vistas of the Brecon Beacons and Black Mountains. For buyers looking for a project with significant long-term investment potential in a serene rural setting, Blaen Nant Melyn offers both comfort and ample opportunities for customization.
