Description

Occupying an enviable elevated position in the sought-after Trefechan area of Aberystwyth, 6 Penparcau Road is a most impressive four bedroom detached family home that has been thoughtfully refurbished to provide a superb standard of accommodation throughout. Built in the 1970s and enhanced over the years, the property combines the generous proportions typical of its era with a contemporary finish that today's buyers will appreciate.

The house is perhaps best defined by its quite exceptional outlook. From the principal reception rooms, the conservatory, the rear garden and several of the bedrooms, the views across Aberystwyth are nothing short of spectacular — taking in the National Library of Wales, the River Rheidol, Aberystwyth Football Club, the old castle remains, the University, Constitution Hill and the hills beyond. This is a panorama that very few properties in the town can claim, and one that must be experienced in person to be fully appreciated.

Close to the marina, the town centre, and the full range of amenities that Aberystwyth has to offer, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial family home in one of the town's most desirable locations.

Immediately to the rear of the property is a generous block-paved patio with steps leading up to the main garden, which is laid predominantly to lawn with a central stone patio seating area — perfectly positioned to capture the sun and the views in equal measure. Well-stocked borders with mature shrubs, hedging and fruit trees add colour and structure throughout the seasons. Stepping stone path. Fenced and hedged boundaries providing excellent privacy.

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 received the prestigious Top Operator in Wales Award at the Fine & Country Conference in Westminster. This accolade was warmly welcomed by Managing Director, Nigel Salmon, and recognised the culmination of 18 months of focused, high-quality work.

Fine & Country was introduced to the beautiful Mid and West Wales region in late summer 2020, at the height of the pandemic, by Nigel and his team. Since then, the business has gone from strength to strength, earning a reputation for outstanding marketing of distinctive homes, particularly along the Cardigan Bay coastline. This success is underpinned by a wealth of five-star reviews for the West Wales office.

In July 2025, Fine & Country West Wales opened its prestigious new Luxury Property Centre within the former Post Office in Aberystwyth. This stylish and welcoming space reflects the brand’s commitment to elevating the client experience and offering a truly premium environment in which to explore the Fine & Country difference.

Building on this momentum, the company expanded its full-service coverage across the whole of Pembrokeshire and West Carmarthenshire from May 2025, ensuring that clients throughout West Wales can benefit from specialist marketing expertise and a highly visible regional presence. The team is particularly well-known for its skill in relaunching properties, revitalising homes that have previously struggled to sell and giving them a fresh, successful route back to the market.

Most recently, in August 2025, the team relocated to the second floor of the historic Old Post Office building in Aberystwyth. This larger, more prominent headquarters reflects the continued growth of the business and provides an inspiring hub for clients, partners, and the expanding Fine & Country West Wales team.

In parallel with its physical expansion, Fine & Country West Wales has embraced bold innovation, integrating cutting-edge AI systems into its operations. These ensure that no enquiry is missed, properties remain consistently visible across every major platform, and marketing campaigns are data-driven, agile, and constantly refined. Traditional client care is now seamlessly combined with next-generation technology to deliver a premium, proactive, and highly efficient service.

Nigel and his team look forward to welcoming new, existing, and returning clients to their Aberystwyth office, and to continuing to present the very best of West Wales property—locally, nationally, and internationally.
