Cwmpibau is a substantial neo‑Georgian country estate set within about 17.8 acres of paddocks, woodland and formal gardens, offering rare privacy and an estate feel in a remote hamlet. The main house (built 1972 with later works) provides generous reception rooms, a principal bedroom suite and flexible layout across two storeys, while two additional dwellings (a two‑bed Gardener’s Cottage and a historic single‑bed cottage) extend accommodation to as many as nine bedrooms in total. The estate is well suited to a large family, multi‑generational living or buyers seeking holiday‑let or equestrian potential (subject to consents).
Practical positives include a double garage, substantial outbuildings, private driveway and separate paddock areas, plus mains electricity and water. Heating is principally via a ground‑source heat pump with underfloor heating and radiators (electric components), while there is also reference to oil‑fired heating in the estate information. Flood risk is recorded as none and mobile signal is excellent.
Buyers should note material considerations: broadband speeds are very slow for the area and the wider community is classified as very deprived, which may affect services and resale. Council tax for the main house is very expensive (Band H) and parts of the estate will require ongoing maintenance typical of large grounds and older outbuildings. Any commercial use, holiday lets or change of use for cottages will be subject to planning and consents.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a large, characterful country property with extensive land and outbuildings. The setting will particularly appeal to buyers wanting privacy, outdoor space and the scope to adapt buildings and land for smallholding, leisure or multi‑unit use.
