Surrounded by some truly beautiful Welsh countryside, this 20 acre smallholding presents an exciting opportunity for someone looking to embrace rural living and restore a traditional farmhouse to its former glory. Located just over a mile off the B4520 and approximately eight miles north of the historic market town of Brecon, the property sits quietly between the peaceful villages of Merthyr Cynnog, Upper Chapel and Lower Chapel. The farmhouse is in need of complete modernization but has lots of potential. On the ground floor there are two reception rooms, a kitchen, bathroom and an internal store room which could be turned into a utility room or pantry. Upstairs there are three bedrooms, all of which enjoy wonderful views across the surrounding countryside.

The farmhouse is complemented by several outbuildings. There is a small attached cowshed and pig cot, perfect for those interested in hobby farming, animal keeping or creative repurposing. There is also a small storage shed located opposite the main house and a portal frame shed which is in very poor condition, but potentially rebuildable subject to planning permissions as a workshop, barn or stabling facility. The land extends to approximately 20 acres of mainly grazing land with a natural slope. It is currently divided into seven enclosures, though many of the fences have deteriorated and will need replacing to restore the boundaries. This amount of land offers excellent potential for a variety of rural uses from equestrian pursuits and sustainable farming to wildlife conservation or a self sufficient lifestyle. It s ideal for buyers looking for space, privacy and an active outdoor life.
