This stone-built semi-detached cottage sits in peaceful Abercych, offering characterful living with flexible accommodation and a large productive garden. The layout includes two main bedrooms plus a loft room that can function as occasional third bedroom, hobby space or storage. A timber cabin with power, insulation and double glazing adds valuable workspace or guest accommodation away from the main house. Off-road parking and multiple outbuildings (two sheds and greenhouse) support practical rural living and small-scale food growing or keeping hens.
Internally the house retains traditional features: exposed beams, slate hearth with multi-fuel burner and stripped hardwood floors. The fitted kitchen provides space for essential appliances and the sitting room could be repurposed as a ground-floor bedroom if required. The loft room spans the length of the property and brings extra usable area, though head height is limited and access is via loft ladder-style steps.
Buyers should note this is an older, traditional build with presumed uninsulated granite/whinstone walls and an EPC rating of F. Heating is by LPG boiler and radiators; the roof and primary structure appear sound in description, but the property will benefit from targeted energy and comfort improvements. Broadband and mobile signal are average, and the location is a remoter, agricultural community with low crime but limited immediate services.
For someone seeking a tranquil base in Cardigan Bay with scope to personalise, this cottage offers immediate charm and practical outbuildings, but also clear maintenance and energy-upgrade considerations. Its large garden, cabin and flexible rooms are the principal value drivers for downsizers, hobby gardeners or those wanting a countryside second home.
