● Enchanting Secluded Location with Views over Brechfa Forest
A truly stunning, refurbished, stone cottage with large gardens and wooded grounds, a traditional stone barn with conversion potential (STPC) and various other outbuildings in an enchanting setting within the Brechfa Forest.
According to a date stone on the front wall, the cottage was built in 1872, and it was comprehensively refurbished to an extremely high standard by the current owners in 2020. The adjacent traditional stone barn has potential for conversion to provide an extension to the cottage or a separate self-contained annexe / holiday let, subject to the necessary permissions. The delightful gardens and grounds are a keen gardener's dream and there are some beautiful views looking out over the surrounding forest.
Although extremely private and secluded, the property is just a short distance from the ever-popular village of Brechfa which has a thriving local community, church, community run shop and an excellent pub / restaurant. The surrounding area is renowned for providing some of the best walking, mountain biking and horse riding in Carmarthenshire through Brechfa Forest and the adjoining Llanllwni Mountain.
Wider ranges of shops and amenities are available in the market town of Llandeilo, the university town of Lampeter or the main marketing and administrative centre of Carmarthen with access on to the A48 dual carriageway which links to the M4 motorway.
