Set in the edge of the Brecon Beacons National Park, this three-bedroom period home blends spacious family living with classic Victorian character. Two generous reception rooms and a large kitchen/breakfast room offer flexible daily living and entertaining space, while a practical utility and ground-floor WC add convenience for busy households. The principal bedroom benefits from an ensuite and several rooms enjoy countryside views towards the Brecon Beacons.
The property sits on a large, well-manicured walled garden with mature hedging, a gravel driveway and a detached garage — ideal for outdoor hobbies, secure parking and storage. Original features such as high ceilings, bay window and stonework are prominent throughout, giving the house strong period appeal and a commanding street presence on Church Lane.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations: the stone walls are likely uninsulated (as built), double glazing installation date is unknown, and the house was constructed in the early 20th century so some maintenance or sympathetic updating may be required. Council tax is above average and local broadband speeds are only average, though mobile signal is excellent.
This home will suit families who prioritise space, character and proximity to local schools and town amenities, or buyers seeking a period property with scope to improve energy performance and modernise to personal taste. Flood risk is low and the freehold tenure simplifies ownership in this sought-after rural-fringe setting.
