Wood-pellet boiler heats both properties, main fuel bulk wood pellets
Stone walls assumed uninsulated; energy efficiency likely requires upgrades
Very slow broadband despite excellent mobile signal
Located in an isolated hamlet; local area shows high deprivation indicators
Pantybryn is a substantial equestrian holding set in about 19.24 acres, offering two stone cottages, eleven stables, a tack room and a barn. The main farmhouse (four bedrooms) and adjoining two-bedroom cottage provide flexible living: multigenerational occupancy, holiday lets or rental income are all realistic options given the separate accommodation and countryside setting. The site sits near riding schools and offers direct riding-out potential with easy access to the Brecon Beacons and nearby beaches.
Practical features include a privately owned wind turbine and a wood-pellet boiler that heats both properties; the turbine is reported to generate a modest income of about £2,500 a year. Built before 1900 with traditional granite or whinstone walls, the cottages retain character—exposed beams, hardwood floors and stone exteriors—while double glazing was installed after 2002.
Buyers should note clear practical drawbacks alongside the opportunities. Broadband speeds are very slow, mobile signal is excellent but the wider area shows high deprivation indicators. The stone walls are assumed to be uninsulated which will affect energy performance despite the pellet heating; the EPC rating is D. There are only two bathrooms across six bedrooms, and older fabric and services may require ongoing maintenance or targeted renovation.
This holding will suit equestrian families, buyers seeking a rural lifestyle with business potential, or investors prepared to manage countryside property and improve utilities. Its size, proximity to riding facilities and flexible accommodation make it a rare country opportunity, but budget for upgrades to insulation, connectivity and periodic maintenance to fully realise the site’s potential.
