Description

Cwmhawen Fach farmhouse was originally built in 1822 with its date stone sitting proudly above the patio door, (which was the original front door, and now opens from the sitting room to the garden). Over the years the property has undergone a sympathetic renovation and refurbishment providing a comfortable farmhouse blending character features with modern touches. A range of attractive traditional stone barns sit around the adjacent farmyard together with a number of more modern general purpose outbuildings that would suit a variety of uses. The property extends to about 42 acres (stms – subject to measured survey) with pasturefields stretching up the valley together with a belt of interesting woodland.

Accommodation Ground Floor
A welcoming sunroom at the front of the house leads through to the kitchen breakfast room with quarry tiled floor, fitted kitchen and a blue Aga providing a warm focal point. Off the kitchen is a useful utility room with a door leading to the rear entrance hall (with cloakroom off). A door leads off the kitchen to the large sitting room impressive fireplace and French door to the front terrace. Adjacent to this room is a comfortable reception room/study.

First Floor
Stairs rise up from the entrance hall to the first floor accommodation that includes three generous bedrooms overlooking grounds to the front of the house (the principal bedroom with an en suite shower room) and a fourth smaller bedroom overlooking the rear of the house. A family bathroom completes the floor.

Externally
The property is approached by a smart drive that leads down to the farmhouse and traditional farmyard. An attractive lawned garden area lies to the front of the house with mature trees, bushes and shrubs.

The Outbuildings
The old farmyard is framed by two traditional stone barns that have potential for conversion into further accommodation (stp – subject to planning). We have been informed by the owner that they did have planning permission for two holiday cottages that has since lapsed and that four cottages were suggested in the details when they bought the property some 22 years ago. Further useful outbuildings include livestock buildings, smaller stone shed, tractor sheds, Dutch barns and a general purpose portal frame outbuilding.

The Land
The farm extends to about 42 acres (stms) and comprises well maintained productive valley pasturefields with a stream bordering on one side and a belt of mature woodland running along the other side. There are also three further pasturefields above the homestead and woodland that border a council road. The land offers excellent grazing and a source of feed in terms of silage or hay/ haylage for those wanting to keep livestock or horses etc. There is also potential to use part of the land for other diversification uses e.g, tourism and camping etc (subject to any required consents). The belt of woodland offers a good mix and habitat to the farm for amenity use, timber and potential tourism use e.g. woodland walks/trails etc.
