Set on a quiet no-through road on the outskirts of Ystradgynlais, this traditional 1930s detached home makes the most of dramatic valley views from its sun room, balcony and landscaped rear garden. The ground floor’s open-plan kitchen/breakfast/sun room and separate lounge and dining rooms offer flexible family living, while three double bedrooms upstairs suit a growing household.
Outdoor life is a strong selling point: the large plot includes a mature enclosed garden, patio and decking, plus handy basement rooms accessed from the patio. Driveway parking and a private yard add everyday convenience. The property is double-glazed (post-2002) and heated by a mains-gas boiler with radiators.
Buyers should note a few practical issues. The house likely needs thermal improvements (cavity walls currently assumed uninsulated) and general updating in parts; there is only one family bathroom. Broadband speeds in the area are slow and the neighbourhood falls within a very deprived local area classification, although crime is low and mobile signal is excellent. Council tax is above average.
This is a good choice for a family wanting countryside views and outdoor access, with scope to add value through targeted renovation and insulation improvements. The location provides easy access to local schools, leisure facilities and countryside routes for walking and cycling.
