Set on approximately 8.96 acres near the National Botanic Garden of Wales, this smallholding combines roomy single-storey living with practical outbuildings and good grazing. The main detached bungalow extends to about 2,346 sq ft, with two reception rooms, a large kitchen/breakfast room and three double bedrooms. A self-contained one-bedroom annexe (formerly garage) provides versatile accommodation or rental/guest use. A substantial Atcost-style workshop/stable (approx 1,474–1,568 sq ft) and level, well-fenced pastures suit equestrian or small-holding uses.
The house is generally in good structural condition, with full double glazing and an oil-fired Worcester boiler installed in 2020 serving central heating and hot water. Internal finishes include exposed floorboards, slate flooring in parts and painted rendered elevations over brick/block construction with internal insulation to granite/whinstone walls. The grounds include a large tarmac hardstanding, decking, lawns and paddocks divided into two enclosures.
Important practical notes: services include mains electricity and private drainage to a septic tank; water supply documentation is unclear and should be verified. Broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is only average — factors to consider for home working. Council Tax is in band F and described as expensive. There is some mixed information in the listing about heating types (oil boiler versus records indicating electric/air-source/underfloor), so buyers should confirm servicing and energy systems.
This property will appeal to families, equestrian buyers or those seeking a productive smallholding near Carmarthen with immediate usable grazing and extensive workshop space. It offers a quiet rural setting and scope for upgrading utilities and connectivity to match modern living standards.
