Summary - Hen Dafarn, Manson NP25 5RE
5 bed 3 bath Semi-Detached
Spacious three‑storey family home with garden and multiple parking spaces.
Grade II listed cottage dating to 1760 with extensive original features
A handsome Grade II listed cottage dating from 1760, Hen Dafarn offers generous, characterful accommodation across three floors. Original features — exposed beams, inglenook fireplaces, slate and quarry-tiled floors and bespoke joinery — combine with sympathetic modern touches such as underfloor heating in parts, a bespoke kitchen and a bright oak-framed garden room. The layout comfortably suits multigenerational or growing families who need distinct living zones and plentiful storage.
The plot is a standout: an enclosed, landscaped garden, sun terrace and a large stone outbuilding, plus private parking for several vehicles to the side and front. The house sits in an established rural hamlet within easy reach of local services and countryside lanes, delivering a peaceful setting with very low local crime.
Practical points: the property is Grade II listed, which will restrict alterations and may complicate some upgrades. Drainage is private, council tax is in Band G and the external stone walls are likely uninsulated (typical for sandstone/limestone construction). Broadband and mobile signal are average and the wider area indicators include pockets of high deprivation despite local affluence, so purchasers should check local service provision and living costs.
Overall, this is a rare, well-presented period home for buyers prioritising historic character, space and privacy. It works particularly well for families or multigenerational households who value separate reception rooms, generous bedrooms and off-street parking, and who are comfortable with the responsibilities that come with listed status and an older building.
