Summary - Cefn, New Mills, Newtown, Powys, SY16 3NJ SY16 3NJ
4 bed 1 bath Detached
Large plot with barn and equestrian potential in peaceful Mid Wales.
Approx. 7.6 acres including orchard, paddocks, pond and woodland
Cefn is a traditional detached smallholding set in about 7.6 acres of paddock, orchard and established woodland on the edge of Mid Wales. The house offers roomy, well-proportioned living with a south-facing living room, large dining room, useful pantry, utility and a practical layout that suits family life and small-scale agricultural use.
Energy-efficient upgrades include air-source heating and thermal solar water heating, reducing running costs relative to older rural homes. The plot includes a large Dutch barn with power and lighting, three interlinked paddocks with water connections, a pond, greenhouse and polytunnel — all useful for equestrian, hobby farming or diversification projects. There is potential to convert the existing barn subject to planning and listed-building checks.
Practicalities to note: the property has one main bathroom (plus a separate ground-floor WC), very slow broadband and an expensive council tax band. The access road is privately owned but a neighbouring house has a legal right of way across it. Any attic or barn work will need the relevant permissions, and the static caravans on site are used for storage.
Cefn will suit buyers seeking privacy, land and lifestyle: families, smallholders or buyers wanting a home with scope to develop enterprise or improve accommodation. The combination of sizeable land, energy upgrades and solid family accommodation makes it a rare rural opportunity, but buyers should allow time and budget for broadband, planning for conversions and the ongoing maintenance of an extensive plot.
