The Setting and Approach
General
The placing of Merlin Court, Llangadog on the open market provides
prospective buyers with a unique opportunity of acquiring an
exceptionally desirable country home.
The property is offered with 23.138 acres of surrounding quality
level pastures. The homestead is approached via tarmacadam private
drive with the house set within its its own grounds with
traditional range of farm buildings that suit conversion ( subject
to the appropriate consents being obtained) and further modern
general large span buildings, suiting a variety of agricultural or
commercial enterprises.
The property is delightfully positioned in unspoilt surroundings
close to the Brecon Beacons National Park and within easy
travelling distance of the amenity centres of the area. The house
itself will benefit from general refurbishment and updating but is
spacious, benefits from oil fired central heating and double
glazing.
The whole ambiance of the holding is one of a superior small farm
that has diverse appeal and vast potential for alternative use (
subject to consents being obtained ). Such uses in the Agent‘s
opinion could include commercial enterprise with relation to the
farm buildings, conversion to provide cottage accommodationholiday
use and equestrian purposes or horticultural use.
This is an ideally positioned small farm, which is recommended for
early inspection.
