Summary - SIMONSTON FARM, HEOL SIMONSTON, COITY CF35 6BE
4 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Spacious 4-bed cottage on half-acre grounds with garage studio.
Circa 1588 stone cottage with strong historic character
An enchanting stone cottage dating to circa 1588, offering generous living space across roughly 2,402 sq ft and sitting in about half an acre of landscaped grounds. Two large reception rooms retain original character features including an inglenook fireplace and a wood burner; the separate dining room and well-equipped kitchen make daily family life practical. The attached double garage with a studio/room above adds useful flexible space for home working, hobbies or leisure.
The first floor provides four double bedrooms and two bathrooms — comfortable for a growing family or multigenerational living. Off-street parking for several cars and excellent mobile and broadband signals support modern living despite the property’s age. Flood risk is low.
Be clear: this is a historic building with old stone walls that likely lack modern cavity insulation and an oil-fired boiler system. Double glazing is present but the installation date is unknown. Council tax is described as quite expensive and the wider area scores high for deprivation, which may affect resale prospects. The house’s age and construction mean ongoing maintenance and sympathetic conservation work may be needed, especially if upgrading insulation, heating or services.
This property will suit buyers seeking character, space and a large private plot who are prepared to invest in upkeep and modernisation. It’s a rare opportunity to own a substantial, characterful cottage with flexible outbuildings in a tranquil town-fringe setting; practical improvements could significantly increase comfort and long-term value.
