A stunning barn conversion in a glorious location, set in approx. 21 acres of pasture with woodland belts and mature pond, with spectacular rural views
The conversion was completed in 2013 to an extremely high standard with a magnificent open-plan living area with a high vaulted ceiling and high quality fittings.
We understand that the adjacent stone barn previously had planning permission for conversion to a holiday cottage and it currently provides a useful store.
The property is tucked away at the end of a long no through lane and it has a predominantly south west facing aspect. It is eminently suitable for smallholding, hobby farming or private equestrian use. There are currently two timber stables and a tack room, but there is ample space for the erection of barns, further stables etc subject to any necessary permissions.
The property is rurally situated within a short distance of the villages of Whitemill and Nantgaredig, with easy access onto the A40, which provides a good link to the main marketing and administrative centre of Carmarthen to the west, and the pretty local market town of Llandeilo to the east.
Renewable Heating Initiative
The property has a recently installed Air Source Heat Pump central heating system. The Vendors inform us that they are currently in receipt of an RHI grant (£420.81/quarter rising to £438.80 from July 2022). This can be transferred to a new owner and is payable until October 2028.
