Ty Fry House dates from the 1600s and has charm and elegance in abundance, beginning with its impressive hallway graced by a decorative staircase.

Three generously sized reception rooms and a kitchen radiate from this central point, each with large windows that bathe them in natural light.

The dining room has two windows looking out onto the garden, each with shutters. There's plenty of space for a large table, making this a superb room for entertaining and family meals.

Close by is a large kitchen/breakfast room with lovely views of the rear garden. It has a beamed ceiling and substantial wooden door leading outside. There are fitted wooden cupboards and a central island and a built-in oven. A utility room and rear porch lies close by.

There are two further living rooms: the drawing room has an elegant fireplace and woodburning stove for cosy nights in front of a fire.

The other leads into a large south east-facing Victorian-style conservatory that's perfectly positioned to make the most of warm summer days.

A small study completes the lower floor.

The first floor has four double bedrooms, two of which have en suites. There's a smaller fifth bedroom and a family bathroom.

Further space can be found on the second floor and in the basement/cellar, which has three useful rooms that can be used for storing wines or other items requiring a cooler environment.

Ty Fry offers plenty of flexibility, making it the perfect location for those looking to work from home or enjoy hobbies.

Ty Fry occupies an elevated position and is surrounded by 1.74 acres of mature trees and shrubs and extensive lawns that add to its abiding sense of peace, privacy and serenity. Beyond it lies farm fields and spectacular views of the Brecon Beacons beyond.

An impressive gated driveway leads to the house and a large parking area, with a triple block of garages providing secure parking and plenty of storage and working space. A tranquil pond with a fountain lies opposite.

Around the front of the house is a well-kept lawn with decorative island beds, with a mature wisteria cladding the wall, along with a large stone-built barn with an adjoining garage that has potential to be converted into an annexe, home office or gym. This 35ft by 16ft structure has a vaulted ceiling and exposed frame with large barn doors.

The back garden, framed by the hills and the mountains beyond, has clipped evergreens, mature shrubs, a lawn, vegetable beds and soft fruit bushes.

There's a large parking area around the side of the house with steps leading to the lawns and grounds beyond. A flight of steps leads to a raised terrace behind the utility room.
