Summary - LLWYNPRENTEG LLANAFAN ABERYSTWYTH SY23 4BQ
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Renovated farmhouse on a huge plot in the scenic Ystwyth Valley.
Sympathetically renovated detached 3–4 bedroom farmhouse
A sympathetically renovated former farmhouse, Llwynprenteg sits in a stunning south-facing position in the Ystwyth Valley, around eight miles inland from Aberystwyth. The ground floor benefits from underfloor heating and a high-quality kitchen centred on a Rayburn oil-fired stove; original features remain intact, including pine floors, inglenook fireplace with bread oven and exposed stonework. Large, mature gardens and adaptable outbuildings give generous outdoor space and practical storage or hobby/workshop options.
The property occupies a huge plot approached by a circa 400-yard stone lane through woodland to a gravel parking and turning area. A timber stable/workshop block, refurbished stone garden store and former pigsty increase flexibility for storage, small-scale livestock or conversion back to equestrian use. Mobile signal and broadband are strong, making the house workable for remote working despite the rural location.
Important practical points: heating relies in part on oil (on-site oil tank) and the EPC rating is F26, reflecting poor measured energy performance. The house is set in a remote hamlet classification with limited immediate services and the local area is recorded as relatively deprived; council tax is above average. A rarely used footpath runs along the rear lane and access is via a private track of approximately 400 yards.
Overall, this is an appealing choice for buyers seeking characterful, ready-to-live-in country accommodation with substantial grounds and flexible outbuildings. It will suit families, hobby farmers or buyers wanting rural privacy, but bring a willingness to manage oil heating, energy upgrades and travel to nearby towns for many services.
