This former vicarage is a spacious, characterful family home set on about half an acre in Llanddewi Rhydderch. Dating from the 1800s, it retains high ceilings, sash windows and fireplaces while offering large, light-filled reception rooms and five well-proportioned bedrooms — ideal for comfortable family living or multi-generational occupation.
The mature, private gardens back directly onto open fields, providing seclusion and far-reaching country views. Practical features include an attached garage, a wooden barn/workshop, ample gated parking and full-fibre broadband. A sunroom and flagstone terrace create attractive indoor–outdoor flow for summer entertaining.
Buyers should note this is a period stone house with oil-fired central heating and an EPC rating of E. The walls appear to be original sandstone/limestone with no built-in insulation specified, so sympathetic upgrading and improved energy efficiency would be required to modernise running costs. Mobile phone signal is absent on site and council tax is described as very expensive.
For families seeking a private rural base with strong links to Newport, Cardiff and Bristol, this property offers scope to enhance value through careful refurbishment while enjoying generous gardens and enduring character.
