Summary - Llwyncarw, Llywel LD3 8RH
2 bed 1 bath Detached
Renovated two‑bed character cottage on expansive grounds with panoramic countryside views.
Large secluded 4‑acre landscaped plot with paddock and woodland
Set on a spectacular, elevated 4‑acre plot in secluded South Powys countryside, this detached stone cottage combines original character with careful modernisation. The lounge/dining room centres on a dramatic inglenook and exposed beams; travertine floors with underfloor heating run through the conservatory and ground floor, creating a warm, comfortable living space that takes full advantage of the panoramic views.
The house has been extensively refurbished: double glazing installed post‑2002, updated shower room, fitted kitchen and a mix of radiator and underfloor oil‑fired heating. Outbuildings, workshops, stores, a summerhouse with balcony, newly planted mixed woodland and a small paddock extend the usable plot and add practical storage and hobby space for gardeners or smallholders.
Practical considerations are important: the property is heated by an oil boiler and uses oil fuel (not a community supply), broadband speeds are very slow despite excellent mobile signal, and the location is a remote hamlet within a very deprived wider area — services and commuting options are limited. The cottage footprint is modest (two bedrooms) so it suits downsizers or those looking for a holiday/second home rather than a family needing multiple bedrooms.
The grounds are extensive and will demand ongoing maintenance; the house’s age (pre‑1900 stone construction) means some upkeep and periodic conservation work should be expected despite recent refurbishments. For buyers seeking seclusion, superb countryside panoramas and a turn‑key, characterful cottage with useful outbuildings, this property offers rare scale and privacy. For those prioritising fast broadband, proximity to amenities or a larger dwelling, the site may not fit every need.
