Description

This distinctive stone barn conversion, located just outside the picturesque Bannau Brycheiniog National Park, presents a unique opportunity for renovation-savvy buyers. With approximately 8.42 acres of land, the property includes a charming detached Hobby/Playroom barn and a spacious garage/workshop, both offering considerable potential for further development or alternative uses, such as holiday rentals subject to planning permissions. The serene rural setting, while giving a sense of seclusion, is conveniently close to Llandovery and the A40.

Converted in the early 2000s and enhanced over the years, this late 18th-century dwelling boasts plentiful natural light and is laid out to maximize its stunning countryside views. The main living area is open-plan yet neatly sectioned into kitchen, dining, and lounge spaces—perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. Key features include a well-equipped kitchen with built-in appliances and a cozy lounge with a wood-burning stove surrounded by exposed beams.

The property also includes versatile spaces such as an office/library that can serve multiple purposes—from home working to hobbies. Bedrooms are comfortably sized; however, some minor finishing touches are needed around certain areas like the patio doors.

The outbuildings significantly enhance the investment appeal of this estate. The garage/workshop is ready for immediate use but could be transformed into lucrative guest accommodation or more expansive hobby space with appropriate approvals. Additionally, the Hobby/Playroom barn is already equipped with utilities, making it an adaptable extra space for family activities or work-from-home needs.

Overall, this property not only offers stunning environmental benefits but also presents numerous possibilities for those looking to create additional living spaces or generate rental income while enjoying life in one of Wales' most beautiful regions.
