Large character farmhouse with barns and 2-acre paddock, close to Myddfai village..
Substantial Victorian farmhouse, c.3,327 sq ft
Ysgubor Fawr is a substantial Victorian farmhouse set in the Brecon Beacons National Park, occupying a peaceful 2-acre plot just a quarter mile from Myddfai village. The house offers generous living space across two storeys — about 3,327 sq ft — with five bedrooms (one en suite), four reception rooms and high ceilings that emphasise the property’s period character. Adjacent stone barns provide clear conversion potential for additional accommodation or an ancillary income source, subject to permissions.
The property is a strong purchase for a family or purchaser seeking a flexible rural home with long-term potential. The large rooms and original features are good foundations for a sympathetic refurbishment that would modernise living spaces while preserving character. The site’s size and setting also suit small-scale equestrian use or extensive gardens and landscaping.
Buyers should note material works likely required: the stone walls appear uninsulated, parts of the house need renovation, and heating is primarily oil with some electric storage heaters. Mobile signal is absent on site, although broadband speeds are reported as fast. The location is remote with very low local crime but sits within an area of high deprivation; services and shops are in Llandovery, about 4 miles away.
Overall, Ysgubor Fawr is for those who value space, period character and rural privacy and who are prepared to invest in upgrading fabric and services. The barns and paddock create clear scope for value-add projects, but practical considerations — insulation, heating and connectivity — should form part of any viewing and survey appraisal.
