Set on a generous, level plot on the edge of St. Harmon, this detached three-bedroom period house offers spacious family accommodation and far-reaching countryside views. Original features such as bay windows, picture rails and tiled fireplaces give the property strong character and a sense of solidity. The large garden and parking for several vehicles are rare assets for village properties and suit families or those wanting more outdoor space.
The house requires renovation and internal upgrading, which presents a chance to reconfigure spaces, update finishes and improve energy efficiency. The property has oil-fired central heating with a boiler and radiators, double glazing installed before 2002, cavity walls assumed without insulation and an EPC rating of E—factors to consider when planning works and running costs.
Practical benefits include fast broadband, low local crime, off-street parking and easy access to Rhayader (about 3 miles) and nearby Elan Valley recreational attractions. Note there is a modest surface-water flooding risk (>3.3% annual chance), though river and coastal flood risk is very low. The home is freehold and built c.1930–1949, making it well-suited to buyers seeking a period property to update and personalise.
This is a straightforward opportunity for families or buyers wanting a character home with garden space and countryside access. The house will reward careful renovation but is not turnkey—budget for thermal improvements, modern services, and cosmetic updating.
