Detached Victorian farmhouse dating c.1845 with period character
Ty Isaf is a detached Victorian farmhouse (c.1845) sitting on a large plot on the fringe of Llandough with direct access to open fields. The house blends period character — stone façade, bay windows, exposed brick chimney and quarry tiles — with practical updates including UPVC double glazing, gas central heating and a replacement boiler (2018). An extended garden room with underfloor heating opens onto a sunny rear patio and a sunken outdoor swimming pool. Generous outbuildings include a garage/store, laundry and useful storage rooms; off-street parking for 2–3 cars.
The layout suits a family seeking space and countryside links while remaining close to Penarth, Dinas Powys and the M4 corridor. There are three double bedrooms, a stylishly appointed shower room and an entrance hall with slate flooring. The farmhouse-style kitchen has a Belfast sink and beech worktop; a pantry and loft access add storage potential. The rear garden is arranged on two levels, includes fruit bushes and a vegetable plot, and backs directly onto fields — attractive for outdoor living and child-friendly play.
Important practical points: the property has just one bathroom, a Band F council tax (expensive), and sits in an area recorded as very deprived with higher local crime levels. The house has some dated elements and pockets that will need ongoing maintenance; the pool and outbuildings will require inspection for condition and running costs. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the freehold tenure gives full ownership.
In short, Ty Isaf will suit buyers wanting a characterful family home with large gardens, outdoor amenities and countryside views who are willing to take on maintenance and accept local area challenges. It offers immediate liveability with scope for further refurbishment or enhancement to increase comfort and value.
