Set in approximately 2.5 acres of grounds including paddocks and outbuildings, this beautifully presented, high‑specification barn conversion offers a wonderful blend of rural charm, generous space and modern comfort, all in an easily accessible countryside setting.

Originally a traditional stone barn, the property was thoughtfully converted in 2010 and has been extensively refurbished by the current owner to create a light, stylish home with impressive room proportions, tall vaulted ceilings and high‑quality finishes throughout. Although currently arranged as a two‑bedroom home, the layout provides excellent scope to reconfigure and create a third bedroom, should a buyer wish. A further highlight is the inclusion of photo‑voltaic solar panels with a favourable feed‑in tariff, generating an income of approx. £3,000 per annum.

Outside, the land has been enjoyed as a smallholding, with space previously used for keeping animals such as pigs, alpacas and goats, making it ideal for those seeking a more self‑sufficient or outdoor lifestyle.

Despite its rural feel, the property is conveniently located just two miles from Pontyberem, which offers an excellent range of everyday amenities including shops, a primary school and medical facilities. The A48 at Cross Hands is close by, providing swift access to Carmarthen and the M4 motorway beyond.

Residence

This detached former stone barn enjoys oil‑fired central heating (new high-specification boiler fitted Dec 2024) and double‑glazed windows. The accommodation in brief is as follows, please refer to the floor plan for approximate room sizes.

A welcoming Reception Hall with boiler cupboard; a spacious Living Room featuring windows to two aspects, double doors opening onto the garden and a free‑standing log burner; and a well‑appointed Kitchen/Dining Room fitted with modern units, hardwood work surfaces, integrated appliances and doors opening onto a raised rear decking area.

The generous Main Bedroom enjoys front and rear aspects and is complemented by a Dressing Room/Study and an En‑Suite Shower Room. There is a Second Bedroom and a stylish Main Bathroom fitted with both bath and separate shower.

Overall, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a distinctive country home offering space, flexibility and lifestyle appeal in a highly convenient rural location.

Land & Buildings

The property is approached via a private gated entrance, opening onto a generous gravelled driveway providing ample parking, framed by attractive shrub borders and giving an immediate sense of privacy on arrival.

There is a particularly useful Outbuilding, measuring approximately 24’6 x 18’4 (7.5m x 5.6m), constructed with block walls beneath a box‑profile roof and set on a concrete base. The building benefits from light and power, along with a practical mezzanine storage area, offering excellent versatility for workshop, storage or smallholding use.

In addition, there is a Detached Garage/Store of timber construction, measuring approximately 19’8 x 17’2 (6m x 5.2m), with twin timber doors and a gravelled floor, ideal for further storage, machinery or vehicles.

The gardens wrap around to the rear of the property and have been thoughtfully laid out to provide a variety of spaces to enjoy throughout the seasons. Features include areas of lawn bordered by mature shrubs and flower beds, two separate timber decking areas, a gravelled seating area and a charming summerhouse, creating ideal spots for outdoor dining and relaxation.

Beyond this, a well‑established vegetable garden offers excellent growing space, complemented by a selection of fruit trees and soft fruits, together with a substantial 30’ Polytunnel, perfect for those seeking a more self‑sufficient lifestyle.

The Land extends beyond the garden into a range of well‑maintained paddocks, divided into several enclosures with stock fencing and a field shelter. Two paddocks are currently used for hay cropping, while the lower paddock has been planted with a variety of young trees, adding to the long‑term landscape and environmental appeal of the property.

IN ALL APPROX. 2.5 ACRES (About 1 Hectare)

  • Dear Rural Scene family Well what can I say - we did it or rather you did! It's been a roller coaster of 3 years which I could write a book about. We knew from Abi's first visit and our contact with you all that we had chosen the right agents - you proved to be the best experience possible when going through this life changing major event. You were all so very professional, approachable and understanding. We really owe you a huge thank you for all your hard work and effort, and have to give a special thank you to Richard - he kept me busy with viewings, kept me positive when yet another buyer backed out and things looked grim and - he also kept me sane!! We are now happily settled in our new home and don't look back. It all worked out for the best in ...

  • I just wanted to say such a big thank you to all the team at Rural Scene for all the work you have done for us over the past few months. I’ve had so much confidence in your advice and everything you and the team have done. You have made it pretty much a stress free experience for us, and at just over 4 months from instruction to exchange, an amazing outcome. Thank you all so much.
