Llanafan, Aberystwyth, Ceredigion, SY23

Tucked away within approximately 8.5 acres of enchanting grounds, this extraordinary detached property is quietly waiting to be restored to its former beauty. Approached through woodland, the property enjoys exceptional privacy and seclusion, surrounded by stunning Welsh countryside and mature woodland.

Now requiring complete renovation, the house itself still boasts an abundance of original character, from the gorgeous feature fireplaces to the exposed wooden beams. The ground floor offers a side entrance hall connecting the former kitchen area, as well as a grand main entrance. Three generous reception rooms offer substantial living spaces, with one having ladder access to what was the generous first bedroom, whilst another offers the staircase to the rest of the first floor.
The remaining first floor provides ample accommodation in the spacious double bedroom, and two further smaller bedrooms.
Previously the property benefitted from a spring-fed water supply. Although this is no longer operational, with the rest of the property, this could help create the idyllic countryside retreat of your dreams.

Externally, the grounds are nothing short of magical. Outbuildings set across the grounds include a substantial stone barn, surrounded by nature. The acreage comprises open fields, a fenced rear garden for the house, winding connecting paths, and extensive woodland beyond.

For someone with vision and ambition, this is an extraordinary opportunity to transform a truly captivating countryside property into an exceptional rural retreat. Near the village of Llanafan, the property sits by the nature reserves of Grogwynion and near Hafod Estate, making it the ideal location for nature lovers. Just a short drive away, further amenities can also be found in Aberystwyth and Tregaron, making the property well-connected whilst being beautifully isolated.
