Tredefaid is a stunning Grade II listed residence, believed to date back to the seventeenth century, if not earlier. When the current owners purchased the property, they recognized its potential and undertook a remarkable renovation project to create a fabulous family home. The superb restoration of the property took it back to its original stones and included new roofs and a lime render to the outside, to allow this ancient building to breath again. Offering five bedrooms and sumptuous living spaces that beautifully marry the character of the property with modern comforts and conveniences, Tredefaid is a wonderful home.

In addition to the main residence, the sale includes approximately seventy five acres of land, comprising native broadleaf woodland and pasture. Alongside the main buildings, there are four remarkable stone barns to the north of the main house, offering a myriad of possibilities for the purchaser. One of these barns has lapsed planning permission for conversion into two cottages. Tredefaid is situated less than a ten minute drive from the thriving town of Cardigan, which offers a wide array of amenities, artisan shops, caf s, and restaurants.

Upon entering the main property, you pass through an enclosed porch before stepping into the central hallway on the ground floor. Unlike the rest of the ground floor, which benefits from underfloor heating, this space retains its original slate flagstone flooring, a beautiful feature in its own right. An oak, open tread staircase leads up to the first floor, while doors to the principal reception rooms radiate off the hallway. The main living room is one of the oldest parts of the home and retains its massive hearth, with a wood burning stove as its focal point. Opposite, another generously sized sitting room features exposed brickwork and another wood burning stove. The final doorway in the hall leads to the kitchen dining room, a beautifully designed space enhanced by a glazed extension that provides access to the gardens and floods the area with natural light. The well presented kitchen includes an Aga set within a hearth, along with wooden cabinetry, a large granite topped central island, and a walk in pantry. To the rear of the kitchen, a spacious rear lobby boot room leads to a cloakroom and utility room.

On the first floor, you find three double bedrooms and one single, including the sumptuous master suite. The master bedroom boasts double height ceilings with exposed A frame beams and a doorway leading to a lavish en suite bathroom. Two additional shower rooms serve the remaining bedrooms. An oak and stone curving staircase leads to the second floor, where a character filled double bedroom showcases original features.

To the north of the main house are four stone barns. The closest, an L shaped two story barn, has lapsed planning permission for conversion into two residential units, which a purchaser could explore if desired. At present, the barn provides excellent storage and workspace, with a home gym on the ground floor. In addition, there are three further stone outbuildings, both currently used for storage, one of which has its own Grade II listing. These structures present exciting opportunities for sympathetic redevelopment if required.

The grounds at Tredefaid extend to approximately seventy five acres, primarily consisting of native broadleaf woodland, with around twenty five acres of pasture. The pasture is currently grazed by sheep from a local farmer, an arrangement that could continue if desired. The land and outbuildings would be ideal for a purchaser with an equestrian interest or someone looking to establish a farming or agricultural business.

Tredefaid is a truly exceptional property, nestled within an inspiring landscape. The current owners have created a wonderful family home, surrounded by barns and grounds that offer a wealth of possibilities for a variety of buyers. Viewing is essential to fully appreciate this unique and special property.
