Glanstewi Cottage, Penrhyncoch, Ceredigion

Enjoying an enviable position on the edge of the popular village of Penrhyncoch, this attractive detached country residence offers the perfect combination of spacious family accommodation, character, privacy and a delightful rural setting. Peacefully positioned adjoining farmland, the property provides an appealing retreat whilst remaining exceptionally convenient for the village amenities and the university and coastal town of Aberystwyth - approximately 5 miles distant.

The property retains a wealth of original character and charm, most notably the impressive large Inglenook fireplace, which creates a particularly attractive focal point to the principal reception room. The well-proportioned accommodation is thoughtfully arranged over two floors and provides considerable versatility for modern family living.

The ground floor offers a welcoming entrance, two generous reception rooms and a useful shower room, whilst to the first floor there are four-bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite facilities, together with a family bathroom. The accommodation is spacious throughout and benefits from double glazing and oil-fired central heating.

Externally, the property is set within its own established and well-maintained private gardens, providing an excellent degree of privacy and enjoying the peaceful countryside surroundings. A detached double garage, together with an adjoining brick-paved driveway, provides ample off-road parking for several vehicles and will undoubtedly appeal to those requiring generous parking and useful garaging.

The property is ideally situated on the edge of Penrhyncoch, a popular and well-established village approximately 5 miles from Aberystwyth. The village offers a welcoming community atmosphere together with a useful range of everyday amenities, making it a particularly convenient location for families and those seeking a more peaceful lifestyle without being isolated from larger centres.

Penrhyncoch has a primary school, village shop and post office facilities, a Football Club with bar and community amenities, together with sporting and recreational facilities. The surrounding countryside provides an abundance of opportunities for walking and enjoying the beautiful landscape of rural Ceredigion, whilst the village's position also makes it particularly convenient for access to Aberystwyth and the wider road network.

The combination of its village setting, countryside surroundings and proximity to Aberystwyth makes Penrhyncoch an increasingly desirable location for those looking to enjoy a quieter pace of life whilst retaining excellent access to town-based facilities.

Only approximately 5 miles distant, Aberystwyth provides an outstanding range of shopping, educational, employment, cultural and recreational facilities. This historic university and seaside town is regarded as a major centre for the surrounding area and offers a particularly attractive blend of coastal living, vibrant town life and a strong sense of community.

The town centre provides a broad choice of national and local independent retailers, with major high-street names complemented by an impressive variety of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, specialist retailers and traditional businesses. Aberystwyth is also an important commercial and employment centre for Mid and West Wales, with a wide range of local businesses and national organisations represented within the town.

Aberystwyth University is a major feature of the town and an important employer and economic and cultural contributor to the region. The university campus is also home to the highly regarded Aberystwyth Arts Centre, one of the largest arts centres in the UK, offering an extensive programme of theatre, music, dance, exhibitions, cinema and other cultural events.

The town is also home to the National Library of Wales, one of Wales' foremost national institutions. Perched above Cardigan Bay, the Library houses an exceptional collection relating to the history and culture of Wales and provides an important centre for research, learning and the preservation of the nation's heritage.

Bronglais General Hospital, together with numerous medical, professional and commercial organisations, provides further employment and services within the town. Aberystwyth also accommodates a number of local and national government offices, reinforcing its role as an important administrative centre for the region.

For commuters and those travelling further afield, Aberystwyth's main railway station provides a valuable transport connection, with services linking the town with Machynlleth and onwards towards Shrewsbury, Birmingham and the Midlands.

Perhaps one of Aberystwyth's greatest attractions is its beautiful seafront. The Victorian promenade, extending along the sweeping coastline of Cardigan Bay, provides magnificent coastal scenery and a wonderful setting for leisurely walks. The promenade leads towards the harbour and Marina, whilst the historic pier, castle ruins and seafront architecture add considerably to the town's character and appeal.

With its Inglenook fireplace, generous living accommodation, four-bedrooms, two reception rooms, double garage, ample parking and established private gardens adjoining open farmland, this attractive detached home offers an exceptional opportunity to acquire a comfortable country residence in a highly convenient West Wales location.
