Set within just over an acre of private gardens, this imposing five-bedroom stone farmhouse combines strong period character with modern efficiency. Exposed beams, original stonework and a dramatic inglenook fireplace with bread oven create atmospheric living spaces, while a bespoke L-shaped kitchen and separate utility room provide practical family accommodation. The layout includes three reception rooms, a formal dining room and a striking main lounge that take advantage of countryside views.
The property has been futureproofed with an air source heat pump and upgraded insulation, achieving an EPC rating of B—uncommon for a home of this age and scale. The master suite benefits from a contemporary en-suite; two further bedrooms sit on the first floor and two more on the top floor, offering flexible space for guests, home working or hobbies. Integral garage, gated driveway and ample parking suit multiple vehicles and rural access needs.
Outside, extensive grounds include a gravelled seating area, timber log store and a detached conservatory set into gently sloping lawns that open to sweeping countryside vistas. The hamlet location is quiet and remote yet within a short drive of Builth Wells for broader services, schools and transport links.
Notable practical points: the property’s construction predates 1900 (solid stone walls), and while insulation has been upgraded, older stone walls can demand ongoing maintenance and specialist repair. Heating uses both an air source heat pump and an oil-fired boiler; prospective buyers should check running costs and service history. Broadband speeds are reported as slow for modern remote working. Council tax lies in band E.
