Twyncynghordy Cottage is a rare, characterful detached home dating from around 1760, set within a very large plot of roughly one-third of an acre. The house retains original stone features and offers comfortable family space — four bedrooms, two reception rooms, a Jack-and-Jill bathroom plus a separate shower room, and a spacious kitchen with integrated appliances. A wood-burning stove and original stone fireplaces add period charm.
Outside, generous grounds include formal garden areas, a barn, stable, garage (with inspection pit) and several outbuildings. The barn offers genuine potential for conversion to extra living space or a workshop, subject to planning consent — ideal for an owner who needs hobby space or wants to add value. The cottage sits close to Brynmawr amenities, with good road links to the A465 and public transport connections to Ebbw Vale and Cardiff.
Practical points to note: the property’s stone walls appear uninsulated and, given its age, will require ongoing maintenance and careful consideration of retrofit work. Broadband speeds in the area are slow. The house sits in a very deprived local area with average crime levels; buyers should weigh community and investment factors accordingly. Flood risk is low. Overall, this home suits buyers looking for period character, space and scope to improve — either as a family home or for long-term value uplift through sympathetic renovation.
