Set in the original core of Aberporth, this characterful 4-bedroom cottage occupies an elevated spot with uninterrupted sea views across Cardigan Bay. Exposed beams, slate finishes and two wood-burning stoves give the house a cosy, historic feel while the garden and former stone boathouse extend living and visitor space with excellent outlooks.
The property requires modernization throughout: heating is currently electric and LPG-fired, the walls are traditional stone/Clom construction with assumed limited insulation, and some rooms and services need updating. There is clear scope to reconfigure and improve energy performance, making this an appealing project for buyers seeking a period home with coastal setting and long-term value potential.
Externally, the plot includes a detached garage, store and gated driveway with off-street parking. The top garden is north-west facing and excellent for sunsets, but there is currently no fencing at the cliff edge so care and possible boundary works will be necessary. Rights of access over a shared drive apply and some historic building work has been carried out to the rear of the garden.
For families or couples wanting a seaside home with authenticity and flexible outbuildings, this cottage offers rare position and scope. Buyers should allow budget for renovation, energy upgrades and any consenting for changes to outbuildings or garden boundaries.
