Area classed remoter/very deprived — impacts on services and resale
Set on approximately 11.8 acres on the outskirts of Maenclochog/Clynderwen, this former stone cottage plot offers rare countryside scale and approved detailed planning (ref: 22/0447/PA) to convert the ruin into a two-bedroom stone cottage with open-plan living and a downstairs bathroom. The land combines pasture, paddock and pockets of mature woodland, providing privacy, grazing or amenity space and long rural views toward established boundary trees.
The site is accessed via a single-track lane close to village amenities — shop, pub, school and community hall — making it practical for a quiet permanent home or a second-home retreat. Planning consent is already in place for the cottage conversion, reducing some development uncertainty; the drawings show a traditional two-bedroom layout reflecting the existing stone character.
Buyers should note material practicalities: no services are recorded as connected at the site, broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is only average. The wider area is classified as remoter and very deprived, which can affect resale and service provision. The plot’s scale and woodland mean maintenance and boundary management will be ongoing commitments.
This plot will suit someone seeking a large rural holding with permitted cottage conversion — a self-build/renovation project, smallholding or long-term countryside investment. The detailed planning consent gives a clear pathway to create a characterful two-bedroom home, but purchasers should commission their own surveys and utility enquiries before exchange.
