Llansantffraid, Powys, SY22

Contemporary sophistication in the heart of the countryside with a range of outbuildings, including stables, gym and a two storey stone barn.

Description

A perfect blend of classic period charm and contemporary refinement, this beautifully presented home sits just a stone’s throw from the village of Llansantffraid. Extended in recent years, it now offers six generously proportioned bedrooms and wonderfully versatile living spaces, ideal for families seeking comfort, character and flexibility. The layout lends itself perfectly to modern life, providing excellent options for working from home or hosting guests.

On entering, you are greeted by a striking reception space that opens through to an impressive sunroom. This spectacular room links the house to the garden through expansive glass and exposed brickwork, creating a seamless flow between indoors and out. It sets the tone for the rest of the home, where traditional features are beautifully balanced with contemporary finishes to create an inviting environment designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The attention to detail throughout ensures a sense of style and sophistication at every turn.

Privately positioned within its generous grounds, the house is complemented by a selection of outbuildings that offer extensive storage and exciting scope for future conversion, subject to consent. The gardens provide a peaceful haven with mature planting, outdoor seating areas and thoughtfully designed spaces in which to relax and enjoy the surroundings.
A bright and welcoming hallway, flooded with natural light from the adjoining sunroom, creates an impressive first impression. Limestone flooring flows through the principal ground floor areas, giving a wonderful sense of cohesion. The lounge provides a calm and elegant retreat with tall windows, exposed timbers and warm recessed lighting. Quietly positioned off the hallway, a separate landing leads to two bedrooms and a beautifully finished shower room, creating a private wing ideal for guests or homeworking.

At the heart of the home lies a spacious kitchen, full of character with handcrafted wood worktops, a large island and an original inglenook fireplace with bread oven. Exposed beams add a traditional feel, while a neighbouring utility and pantry provide excellent additional storage. A cloakroom and further reception areas, including a snug with an impressive inglenook fireplace and log burner, add to the flexibility and charm of the layout. From here, a dining room and a generous home office extend the living space further, with the office opening onto a sunken courtyard — a delightful, sheltered spot for outdoor seating.

The principal bedroom is a truly beautiful space, featuring a vaulted ceiling, exposed timbers and excellent built in storage. Adjoining rooms provide dressing and storage areas, both of which offer scope for further enhancement. Three additional double bedrooms, each with characterful features, and a luxurious family bathroom with freestanding bath and walkin shower complete the main first floor.

Outside, a sweeping private driveway leads to generous parking and a gated entrance that opens into the enclosed front gardens. These are thoughtfully planted with shrubs, raised beds and mature borders, and include a charming sunken courtyard and a covered seating area beneath a pagoda. A substantial stable block and a separate gym building add valuable ancillary space, while a two storey stone barn offers superb potential for conversion, with services already in place.

The rear garden is a standout feature, with a covered terrace flowing directly from the house and creating an exceptional area for outdoor living. The lawn stretches beyond to an orchard and fruit bushes, with a gravelled fire pit area at the far end — a wonderful place to unwind and enjoy views over surrounding farmland.
