An extended detached cottage in the village of Penysarn, set on a large plot with off-road parking and a garage. The interior blends original stonework and exposed beams with a recent cosmetic update, a refurbished bathroom and uPVC double glazing to the majority of windows. The layout includes a ground-floor bedroom, kitchen/breakfast room opening to lounge and conservatory, with two further bedrooms on the first floor.
This property offers character and scope: surprisingly open living spaces and garden room potential on a generous site close to local amenities and the primary school. Practical benefits include fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, making the home suitable for modern living despite the rural location.
Buyers should note important energy and fabric factors: the EPC rating is G, the main heating is oil-fired boiler and radiators, and the original granite/whinstone walls are likely uninsulated. Although cosmetically refreshed, further improvement works or insulation upgrades will be needed to reduce running costs and raise the energy rating.
Overall, the cottage will suit a family or buyer looking for a character home with immediate move-in appeal and clear scope for sensible energy improvements and further refurbishment to add long-term value.
