Description

Dancapel Farmhouse – A Historic Grade II Listed Smallholding in an Idyllic Countryside Setting in Need of Modernisation

Price reviewed and refined to £400,000 to find the right buyers who will bring this property up to its full potential.

Set within the heart of West Wales' unspoiled landscape, Dancapel Farmhouse is a rare opportunity to own a Grade II listed country home with a rich and fascinating history. Believed to date from the early 19th century, the farmhouse location has connections to Whitland Abbey and the Cistercian monks, suggesting centuries of occupation in this timeless setting.

Enjoying a private position, the property is surrounded by three and a half acres of rolling countryside, offering breathtaking panoramic views over the undulating fields and hills of Carmarthenshire.

Despite its historic charm, Dancapel Farmhouse is in need of modernisation, presenting an exciting opportunity for buyers to create a beautiful country retreat tailored to their vision. The revised price reflects the potential for enhancement, making it a compelling investment for those seeking a rural lifestyle change, a smallholding venture, or a restoration project with character.

The extensive traditional outbuildings provide further scope, whether for equestrian pursuits, agriculture, or conversion opportunities (subject to planning consents).

Located just a short drive from Llandysul and Carmarthen, the farmhouse enjoys a perfect balance between seclusion and accessibility. The spectacular Ceredigion and Cardigan Bay coastline—renowned for its golden beaches, picturesque harbours, and dolphin-filled waters—is also within easy reach, offering coastal escapes just a stone’s throw from home.

For those seeking a peaceful, character-filled home in one of West Wales' most scenic and historic settings, Dancapel Farmhouse is an opportunity not to be missed.

About Fine and Country West Wales, Aberystwyth

The Gallery Station Approach Alexandra Road, Aberystwyth, SY23 1LH
Industry affiliations:Industry affiliation logo 0

During March 2022, Fine & Country West Wales proudly scooped the prestigious Top Operator in Wales Award at the Fine & Country Conference in Westminster. Managing Director, Nigel Salmon, was delighted with this recognition, which marked the culmination of 18 months of dedicated work.

Fine & Country was introduced to the beautiful Mid and West Wales region in the late summer of 2020, during the pandemic, by Nigel and his team. Since then, the business has gone from strength to strength, building a reputation for exceptional marketing of distinctive homes, particularly along the renowned Cardigan Bay coastline. This commitment has been reflected in numerous five-star reviews for the West Wales office.

In May 2022, Fine & Country West Wales opened a prestigious Luxury Property Centre in Station Chambers, Aberystwyth, providing clients with a stylish base to experience the Fine & Country difference. Building on this momentum, the company expanded its coverage into Pembrokeshire and West Carmarthenshire from May 2025, extending its reach across even more of Wales’ most desirable locations.

Most recently, in August 2025, the team moved into their new home on the second floor of the historic Old Post Office building in Aberystwyth. This larger and more prominent base reflects the continued growth of the business and provides clients with an inspiring environment in which to explore Fine & Country’s marketing expertise.

Alongside this physical expansion, Fine & Country West Wales has also embraced innovation, integrating cutting-edge AI systems into its operations. This ensures that no enquiry is ever missed, properties remain fresh and visible across multiple platforms, and marketing strategies are continually refined to meet the changing market. The team now blends traditional client care with next-generation tools, delivering a seamless, proactive, and premium service for sellers and buyers alike.

Nigel and his team look forward to welcoming new, existing, and returning clients to their Aberystwyth office and continuing to showcase the very best of West Wales property on a local, national, and international stage.
