The Property - Bryn Celyn is a beautifully presented, detached bungalow found in the popular market town of Knighton (Tref-y-Clawdd) directly on the Welsh/English border within the picturesque Teme Valley.

Originally built in 1928, the property has been refurbished to a high standard within recent years, including a solid wood kitchen with quartz worktops, a luxurious bathroom suite and redecoration throughout. In addition, the property was re-wired and re-plumbed in 2016/17. Lovingly maintained by the current owners, Bryn Celyn presents a pleasant blend of traditional and contemporary features from quarry tiled flooring and fireplaces to UPVC double glazed windows and external doors and a combination boiler. The current vendors have also improved the insulation levels below the suspended floors. Offering flexible accommodation, the property has 3 double bedrooms, however the current vendors are using one of the bedrooms as an additional reception room. The property also has 2 incredibly useful, converted loft rooms, which cannot be 'officially' classed as bedrooms due to the current access being via a loft ladder, however plans are in place and there is space to install a new stairwell if required. There is also currently planning for the roof to be raised and for the entire loft space to be converted.

Enjoying a pleasant southernly rear aspect over the adjoining field, the property offers stunning front views over neighbouring rooftops and down the Teme Valley and is situated on one of Knighton's most sought after addresses, Presteigne Road, owing to its convenient distance from the town centre with its many independently owned shops and facilities, as well as the nursery/primary school and leisure centre/swimming pool.

Inside, an entrance hall gives way to the living room, the dining room/bedroom three, the kitchen diner and a storage cupboard, which provides access to the loft. A further door opens to a hallway, which leads to the 2 double bedrooms, a further storage cupboard and the bathroom. From the kitchen diner, a back door leads out to the rear garden where access is gained into the small wash room/utility which also houses the 'Worcester' boiler.

Outside, the front of the property has a driveway which leads to a parking area allowing private, off road parking for numerous cars. There is also a front lawned garden as well as a raised decking area next to the property, which poses as the perfect to spot to entertain/relax on within the warmer months of the year while also enjoying the stunning views. The two-tiered, south-facing rear garden backs onto a field and is gravelled/paved on the lower section, while the upper tier is largely lawned and has a useful storage shed. Overall, the gardens have well-defined fenced and hedged borders as well as an array of mature shrubs and specimen trees.

Every year hundreds of tourists and walkers visit the Dyke (which in its entirety runs from Prestatyn to Chepstow) and the Offa’s Dyke Centre adding a real vibe to the town during the Spring, Summer and Autumn months. While here, other attractions that visitors to the town often call upon is the famous Space Guard Centre, which offers people the chance to view the wonders of the universe in a fun and understandable way while also raising public awareness of the threat of asteroid and comet impacts and the ways in which they can predict and prevent them.
