19.5 acres with development potential and derelict farmhouse — auction sale, subject to consents.
Approximately 19.5 acres in two parcels with coastal and mountain views
A rare 19.5-acre opportunity on the edge of Taliesin, bisected by the A487, offering undulating pasture, woodland and long coastal and mountain views. The land is arranged in three fields and adjoins the village, with good access and excellent mobile signal; Aberystwyth and Machynlleth are within roughly 8–9 miles. There is no flood risk recorded.
The eastern parcel (about 14.5 acres) includes a derelict stone farmhouse and barn. Both structures are robust but dilapidated and would require full renovation or rebuilding; any conversion or redevelopment is subject to obtaining planning and listed/building consents. Initial discussions with the Local Authority indicate a reasonable prospect of securing residential consents for plots, but no permissions are currently granted.
The west parcel (around 5 acres) also has potential for residential plots subject to consents. Most of the land, except the former farmhouse, buildings and access track, is let under a protected Agricultural Tenancy (Agricultural Holdings Act 1986) with current rent of £400 per annum; the tenancy will transfer with the sale. Buyers must allow for tenant rights, potential vacant possession negotiations, and the costs and timescales of planning applications.
Practical matters to note: the sale will be at auction; broadband speeds are slow despite excellent mobile signal; purchasers are required to erect a stockproof fence along defined boundary points at their cost. There is an existing easement for construction of roadway and timber access through Troedrhiwfedwen and the property is sold subject to rights of way, wayleaves and easements. This plot suits developers, builders or land investors comfortable with rural planning, renovation and agricultural tenancy considerations.
