1 & 2 Richmond Villas,King Street, Llandysul, Ceredigion. SA44 4DF

1 & 2 Richmond Villas are a pair of Victorian Villas of unusual scale and elaboration. Built circa1870-1880 we believe that with the arrival of the railway to the town and consequent boom in both population and trade, these Villas were built by a Bank (Lloyds - we think) as a statement property. Over the years the properties have also been occupied by renowned local families as private residences but for the past 40 years the property has been a single residence to the current owners. Situated set back and on a high terrace at the main intersection of the town the property is convenient to all the facilities and amenities of the town.


SERVICES Mains water, drainage and electric connected. Oil-fired central heating via 2 boilers (1 for each property).

EPC: F.


1 & 2 Richmond Villas are delightful period residences comprising 4 storeys and with character features throughout. Currently the property is one single residence, however, it would be very easy to return the property physically to their original semi-detached status together with an independent flat(s), if required, to the Lower Ground Floor. Built initially as a Bank to one side and possibly Bank Manager's house to the other, this property has plenty of internal space with high ceilings throughout and a degree of flexibility to the use of the approx. 26 rooms.
