This attractively presented two-bedroom detached cottage sits in quiet Trecastle within the Brecon Beacons National Park. The house is ready to move into, with a generous living room featuring a stone chimney breast and wood-burning stove, an attractive modern kitchen/diner and a useful cloakroom/utility. Two double bedrooms both have en-suite shower rooms and exposed floorboards; one bedroom includes built-in wardrobes.
Outside there is off-street parking for two cars and a compact, well-kept cottage garden with patio, cobbled paths and a garden store — low-maintenance and private. The property benefits from uPVC double glazing and oil-fired central heating; it is freehold and situated in a peaceful hamlet with countryside walking from the doorstep.
A few practical points to note: the house dates from before 1900 and the stone walls are assumed to have no insulation, so upgrading wall insulation could improve comfort and running costs. Heating is oil-fired (not a community system) and broadband speeds in the area are very slow, which may affect home-working. The plot is small and the property is in a rural area with limited local amenities; nearby towns Brecon and Llandovery provide everyday services.
Overall this cottage will suit anyone seeking a manageable, characterful home in a spectacular national-park setting — ideal for downsizers or those wanting a rural bolt-hole — with clear opportunities to improve energy efficiency if desired.
