Pencarniced is a detached 1870 stone cottage set in the peaceful Cerdyn valley, offering genuine period character with panoramic river and countryside views. The house was originally two cottages and retains traditional features, a Welsh slate roof and chimneys, while benefiting from modern additions such as solar panels and double glazing (installed before 2002). Two summer houses/log cabins and a large private garden create useful outdoor space for family use, hobbies or potential holiday-let support.
The internal layout is practical for family life: three bedrooms, two/three reception rooms and one bathroom across approximately 1,175 sq ft. Heating is by boiler and radiators supplemented by wood logs; mains electricity and water are connected and drainage is by private septic tank. Off-street parking and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal suit remote working and everyday needs.
Buyers should note this is a remote village location in an agricultural area, about 12 miles from Lampeter and nearer to small towns and coastal attractions. The property’s granite/whinstone walls appear to have no insulation (assumed) and glazing dates from before 2002, so energy-efficiency upgrades and insulation work would likely be beneficial. The house is offered freehold and has average overall size internally but sits on a large plot with scope for improvement or extension subject to permissions.
This cottage will appeal to families seeking a character rural home, people wanting a project with good upside on energy performance, or buyers who value privacy and countryside living close to river and coast. Practical considerations such as a single bathroom, septic tank maintenance and remote-community services should be factored into viewings.
