Heol-Y-Sarn, Llantrisant, Pontyclun, CF72

A rare opportunity to acquire a truly exceptional piece of Welsh history in the heart of Old Llantrisant. Dating back to the 1700s, this beautiful three-bedroom semi-detached cottage was originally known as the Llantrisant Inn — a historic public house that formed part of the fabric of this ancient market town. In the early 1900s, the building was thoughtfully converted into a pair of charming cottages and has since provided a loving family home for many years.

Filled with character, charm, and history, the property has been sympathetically modernised and improved over the years whilst retaining the warmth and character expected from a home of this age. Benefits include uPVC double glazing, gas central heating, modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, electric underfloor heating, and beautifully landscaped gardens.

The property will be sold including fitted carpets, selected light fittings, integrated kitchen appliances, and bathroom fixtures and fittings — making for an easy transition into your new home.
