Occupying a plot of approx 1/3 acre, this 17th century beautifully presented four bedroomed property with attached double barn and several outbuildings enjoys a quiet elevated semi-rural position just South of the Brecon Beacons National Park.
Twyncynghordy Farm Cottage, which was originally two separate dwellings, has recently been converted and renovated to the highest of standards by its present owner and must be viewed to fully appreciate the character and accommodation on offer. Dating back to 1760, the main cottage is steeped with history and retains many original features whilst also making a beautiful spacious home that has been tastefully updated for modern living. Arranged over two floors it comprises of a modern bespoke fitted kitchen/dining room with integrated appliances and a 'Belfast' sink, two delightful reception rooms, a triple aspect master bedroom with three further bedrooms, a downstairs WC, a shower room and a 'Jack & Jill" ensuite with whirlpool spa bath, all complimented by beautiful oak doors throughout. A number of original features remain, which include wooden joists, original stone spiral staircases, and most impressively, the stone fireplace in the main reception room.
Attached to the side of the main house is an extensive stone built barn split into two parts with huge potential for conversion into an annex and/or additional living accommodation (subject to planning consents). Further useful outbuildings include a detached barn, which again offers potential for living or office space, a garage with an inspection pit, and a stable style storage building.
Accessed via a 'no-through' road, the property is set within its own private grounds that extend to approximately 1/3 acre in total and includes parking for numerous vehicles. It is said that within the grounds once stood the "Chartist Tree" under which the early trade unionists met. The garden also comprises of a large lawn housing two greenhouses, a decked seating area, a gateway leading to an enclosed front garden and a further enclosed paved courtyard with feature dry stone wall to the rear. With its picturesque views it is ideally located within walking distance of Parc Nant-y-Waun; 22 hectares of open space, and conveniently positioned close to Brynmawr town centre and the amenities this has to offer.
Brynmawr town has a range of shops, schools and leisure facilities, including a cinema. The Lakeside Retail Park is also located on the outskirts of the town. It further offers excellent links to all major transport routes including the A465 'Heads of the Valley' link road and the train station in the nearby town of Ebbw Vale which provides direct routes to Cardiff within the hour.
