Set at the end of a shared farm track near Bontnewydd, this traditional 4-bedroom farmhouse sits in about 1.5 acres of gardens and grounds with outstanding uninterrupted rural views. The house retains character features, offers an eat-in kitchen, lounge, utility and ground-floor shower room, plus three double bedrooms and a single bedroom upstairs — a comfortable family layout for countryside living.
A substantial range of stone-and-slate outbuildings adjoins the house, previously granted planning approvals for conversion to holiday accommodation and residential use (older permissions, approved subject to conditions). These barns present clear potential for conversion or ancillary income, subject to up-to-date planning consents and works to meet modern standards.
Practical realities are straightforward and honest: the property is an older farmhouse (pre-1900) with sandstone walls likely uninsulated, oil-fired central heating, private water and septic drainage. There is Starlink satellite broadband available, but fixed-line speeds are very slow and there is effectively no mobile signal — important for those who need reliable connectivity. Council tax banding is high and the location is remote, which suits buyers seeking seclusion but may limit everyday convenience.
This home will appeal to buyers wanting rural privacy, scope to develop the outbuildings, or a comfortable family base close to Aberystwyth and coastal villages. It suits purchasers prepared to invest in upgrading insulation, services and possibly to refresh interiors and outbuildings to unlock the property’s full potential.
