Description

This characterful three-bedroom traditional cottage is set within approximately 2.7 acres of beautifully secluded grounds, offering a unique opportunity for both residential living and investment. The property includes two charming holiday cottages, which have been thoughtfully converted from a traditional stone barn, generating an excellent income stream. The main house retains much of its original charm and character, dating back to around 1800, and features a traditional stone barn with potential for conversion, subject to planning permission. The expansive grounds include large gardens, a paddock, and woodland, providing ample outdoor space for various activities. The location is particularly attractive, situated near the small village of Pumpsaint within the picturesque Cothi Valley, known for its historic Dolaucothi Goldmines. Local amenities are accessible in nearby towns, offering supermarkets, shops, cafes, and schools. With planning permission previously granted for a substantial two-storey extension to the main house, there is significant potential for further development. This property presents a rare opportunity for those looking to invest in a versatile rural retreat.

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

49out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This characterful three-bedroom traditional cottage is set on an impressive 2.7 acres and comes with two successful holiday cottages, making it an intriguing opportunity for those looking to invest in a rural retreat. The property's unique features, including a traditional stone barn and various outbuildings, offer considerable potential for further development, whether for personal use or continued income generation through holiday lets.

While the price is notable, the lack of available floor area means we can't assess its value against local £/sqf benchmarks at this point. However, the existing income from the holiday cottages and the charm of the main house present a compelling project for renovation or expansion. With expired planning permission for a two-storey extension and potential for converting the stone barn, there's plenty of scope to enhance this property further in a picturesque setting.

Key opportunities

  • Established income from two holiday cottages
