Summary - MORGRAIG COTTAGE, THORNHILL ROAD CF83 1NB
1 bed 1 bath Detached
Secluded historic barn on large plot — ideal for holiday let or creative renovation project.
Rare detached stone barn circa 400 years old
A rare stone barn on approximately 0.79 acres near Thornhill and Rhiwbina, offered at auction. The historic building—believed to be around 400 years old—has character features such as exposed stone, an Esse stove and a loft sleeping area. Solar panels and mains water are already present, and the site includes mature shrubs, fruit trees, lawned patios and two large storage containers.
The property is not currently suitable for permanent residential occupation and requires full renovation and upgrading to modern standards. Heating is oil-fired via boiler and radiators, the walls are sandstone with assumed no insulation, glazing is older double glazing, and broadband speeds are very slow. Vehicular access is down a gated track and is seasonally challenging; 4x4 access is recommended.
For investors or buyers seeking a countryside retreat or holiday let, the barn offers clear potential once permissions and works are secured. The location provides easy access to Cardiff, Caerphilly and the M4, while sitting in a quiet, low-crime area. Buyers should factor in renovation costs, auction administration fees and investigations into planning and occupancy restrictions before bidding.
Bidding opens and closes by set dates; this sale will be by auction. Interested parties should review the legal pack for disbursements and arrange viewings by the advertised block-booking process. The building’s age and current condition mean specialist surveys and utility checks are recommended prior to purchase.
