Summary - RICKETTS MILL LLYSONNEN ROAD CARMARTHEN SA33 5EN
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Nine-acre waterside retreat with lakes, wildlife reserve and campsite potential.
About nine acres with lakes, reed beds and riverside jetty
Set in about nine acres beside the confluence of two rivers, this mid-19th-century former watermill offers a secluded family home with extensive lakes, islands and reed beds. The house retains character features and provides comfortable family accommodation: a bespoke kitchen/diner, two reception rooms, utility, cloakroom, four bedrooms (one en-suite) and family bathroom. Double glazing was installed after 2002 and oil-fired boiler heating serves the property.
The grounds are the main attraction: large waters, a wooden jetty, established wildlife reserve with a fenced beaver colony, and meadows that attract kingfishers, otters and other species. Ample parking is available on the former mill site across the lane, together with several outbuildings that present opportunity for conversion or business use. Areas are indicated as potentially suitable for campsites, subject to obtaining necessary planning consents.
Buyers should note practical and material considerations: several former agricultural buildings (cowshed, hay barn) are derelict and will need repair or demolition; the stone walls are likely uninsulated; heating relies on oil and council tax is above average. The site is remote and in a very deprived area classification, though crime is very low and the property is circa six miles from Carmarthen and main road links. Viewing is essential to appreciate the setting and assess restoration or business potential.
