Cefnllysgwynne is a rare mid-Wales country estate offered as a whole or in up to 13 lots, presenting a substantial 335.56 acres including about 30.07 acres of mixed woodland (Lot 5). The estate combines a principal period residence with several income-generating dwellings, extensive pasture, woodland, sporting opportunities and strong amenity value along the Irfon Valley.
Practical benefits include a borehole, a small 10kW solar array, a wood-pellet biomass boiler (RHI payments contracted to 2034), mains electricity to dwellings and fibre-optic broadband (estimated top speeds around 1800 Mbps). The river frontage, existing shooting and fishing potential, mixed-age woodland for future timber, and diversification scope make this attractive to agricultural, sporting and investment purchasers.
Buyers should note the principal house requires refurbishment or could be redeveloped (not listed). Parts of the estate (lots 5–8 primarily) lie within flood zones 2 and 3 and the River Irfon is designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). Woodland has been unmanaged in recent years and access improvements would be needed for commercial-scale timber extraction. Several short-term tenancies and third-party rights (water, drainage, rights of way, wayleaves and easements) affect possession and service arrangements.
The estate is offered freehold, with vacant possession on completion subject to existing occupation contracts and farming tenancies. It suits purchasers seeking a diversified rural holding with immediate sporting and income potential, significant redevelopment or long-term woodland and agricultural management opportunities.
