Description
Situated in a rural setting within the Brecon Beacons National Park, and adjacent to the local church, this delightful cottage is set in grounds approaching 2 acres and dates back to around the 17th century, with foundations reputably dating even further back to medieval times. We understand from the present owners the cottage has, in the distant past, had many functions including being a public house, a dole office and a court room. The property is now a generous family home with modern comforts and versatile accommodation yet retaining many original features including exposed stone walls, stone fireplaces, flagstone floors, beamed ceilings and an original 'hinged' wall dividing two of the bedrooms. The ground floor accommodation briefly comprises a dining room with large inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove, a separate sitting room with stone fireplace and wood burner, a very spacious lounge, a snug with a stone fireplace, fitted kitchen/diner, utility area (previously a kitchen), utility room, inner hallway, cloakroom/wc and a boot room. There is also a cellar which is accessed via external steps. To the first floor there's a split level landing, six double bedrooms and two bathrooms. Other features include double glazing and lpg central heating. There is a very generous parking area and a walled and gated garden with storage sheds. To the side is a grassed area planted with varieties of fruit trees and behind the cottage is a formal garden and kitchen garden.
