Set well away from neighbours, Ffynnonwen is a versatile 5/6‑bedroom detached country house on about 6.5 acres of woodland, orchard and water. The grounds include a man‑made, stocked fishing lake, several ponds, established and sapling fruit trees, hiking trails and a raised deck with lake views — a rare private rural setting for family life, multigenerational living or smallholding use.
The accommodation combines an original stone cottage (exposed beams, fireplaces) with a modern extension. The layout offers open plan living/dining/kitchen with island, a utility room, two family bathrooms and flexible rooms that could be used as an annexe, home office or gym. There is ample driveway parking and wraparound decking that links indoor and outdoor entertaining.
Practical points to note: the house dates from before 1900 with traditional granite/whinstone walls and is assumed to lack insulation; main heating is oil‑fired boiler with radiators; drainage is private and broadband speeds are very slow. The EPC rating is D. Subject to planning, there is scope to upgrade, insulate, or create a self‑contained annexe/holiday let to add value.
Location is very rural — about 8 miles from Whitland and the A40. This brings privacy and low crime, but services and amenities are some distance away. The property will suit buyers seeking a secluded lifestyle, outdoor pursuits and space to personalise, rather than those needing fast internet or immediate access to town facilities.
