Approx 5.2 acres including natural pond and landscaped grounds|Self-contained annexe potential with separate external access|Equestrian facilities: 4–5 stables and 20x40m rubber-topped arena|Granite walls (pre-1900) — assumed no cavity insulation|Heating: oil boiler and radiators (not community supply)|Secondary glazing present; whole-house insulation likely needed|Off-street parking with long private driveway and gated access|Council tax rated expensive; rural location remoter but low crime
This traditional granite country house sits on a substantial plot of approximately 5.2 acres, combining spacious indoor living with extensive equestrian and small-holding facilities. The house offers a self-contained annexe option, generous principal rooms with original character, and a conservatory that opens the living space onto landscaped grounds. The sizeable riding arena, multiple stables and direct gated access to the lane make the property especially suitable for equestrian owners or smallholders.
Practical points are clear: the building dates from before 1900 and retains stone walls with secondary glazing, but the walls are assumed to have no insulation and heating is by an oil-fired boiler and radiators. Council tax is described as expensive. These are material running and maintenance considerations for any buyer, particularly given the rural, remoter setting and very deprived local area classification.
For families or multi-generational households the annexe and flexible room layout offer immediate utility — guest, dependent or rental use. The property’s remoteness delivers low crime, fast broadband and a peaceful outlook, while the nearby coastal village of Llanrhystud provides basic shops and a school, with Aberystwyth and Aberaeron within reach for wider services.
This is a substantial rural opportunity: a character stone home with strong equestrian infrastructure and room to expand or modernise. Buyers should budget for ongoing maintenance, potential energy-efficiency upgrades, and higher council tax when assessing value and renovation plans.
