Description

This detached two-bedroom cottage presents an excellent opportunity for renovation enthusiasts or investors looking to unlock its full potential. Nestled in 1.217 acres (0.493 ha) of gardens and pastureland, the property requires comprehensive modernization but offers the possibility of extension, pending necessary approvals. Located less than a mile from Carno village, residents will have access to local amenities including a shop, post office, pub, primary school, and recreation grounds, while larger towns such as Newtown and Machynlleth are within a manageable distance, providing further services and connections to the Cambrian coast. The ground floor features an entrance porch with a UPVC door leading to an entrance hall that connects to a sitting room with quarry tiled flooring and a woodburning stove—a charming focal point that could be revitalized. The kitchen includes basic units and a Rayburn but is in need of significant refurbishment. Additional spaces include an inner lobby with an airing cupboard, a pantry/study area, and a bathroom equipped with essential fixtures. Upstairs are two bedrooms awaiting your vision to transform them into comfortable retreats. Outside, the land comprises gardens leading down to the river alongside various outbuildings including old chicken coops, a railway container, and a corrugated iron lambing shed—each offering unique possibilities for storage or conversion. While this cottage may require investment to reach its potential, it stands as a promising project in a desirable location amidst natural beauty.
