13 Bridge Street, Knighton, LD7

Ffrydd House is an impressive period residence which occupies a prominent position in the market town of Knighton, right on the Wales and England border, set within the scenic Teme Valley. Believed to date back circa 1820-40, the property was considerably extended in the early 1980s by a reputable local builder, resulting in a spacious and characterful home that beautifully reflects its rich history. The property comprises four bedrooms and three reception rooms, blending original period features with modern comforts. Exposed stonework, timber beams, inglenook fireplaces and a cellar sit alongside a fully fitted kitchen and two contemporary bathroom suites. Since the current vendors acquired the property, further improvements have been made, including upgraded electrics, new UPVC double glazing and central heating added to the study/sun room. In addition, the owners have also created a new patio area outside, further enhancing what was already a beautiful and unique garden. The property offers parking for a number of vehicles, as well a detached double garage. Ideally situated just moments from Knighton's high street with its variety of independent shops and amenities, the town's railway station, serving the Heart of Wales line between Swansea and Shrewsbury, is within walking distance, as are the famous Offa's Dyke Centre and trail and the local primary school and leisure centre. Approached via a private driveway through double wooden gates, the parking area accommodates several vehicles alongside a detached double garage with power and lighting. The gardens are a real highlight, comprising two sections. One features a lawn, vegetable plot, greenhouse, garden shed and the new patio area with far-reaching views towards Kinsley Wood. The other, to the rear, is split-levelled and beautifully landscaped, with a south-west facing patio, a rockery with feature pond and a further lawned area beyond. The gardens are neatly maintained throughout with hedged and fenced boundaries, stone-walled borders and an array of mature shrubs, trees and planted beds. The property also benefits from fully owned solar panels on a favourable National Grid tariff, providing electricity to the home and an additional income stream for the owner. The rear entrance, accessed from the parking area, serves as the everyday point of entry, whilst the front door is approached from the roadside via a pathway. The entrance hall has stairs rising off to the first floor and gives access to the downstairs W.C, sitting room and living dining room. The sitting room has double doors to the rear patio and a feature fireplace with inset gas-fired wood-burning style stove. The living dining room enjoys a dual aspect, a second matching fireplace and space for both a dining and sitting suite. Beyond lies the fully-equipped kitchen diner, fitted with base and wall units, an inset sink, electric oven, gas hob, extractor hood and space for a dishwasher and American-style fridge-freezer. The centrepiece is an exposed stone inglenook with a further fitted gas-fired wood-burning style stove. A door leads to a larder, store and office with stone steps down to the sizeable cellar area. The rear hall connects to the outside and to the useful utility room, which houses the Worcester boiler and has plumbing for white goods. To the rear of the utility, a further door leads to the study/sun room, which is a comfortable space for working from home or relaxing. Upstairs, the landing is configured as a library area with a stone inglenook fireplace and space for additional furnishings. The two principal bedrooms face the front, both doubles, whilst a third double is positioned at the rear with garden views. The fourth bedroom is a good-sized single. All three larger bedrooms benefit from fitted 'Sharps' wardrobes. Both the bathroom and shower room have been refitted to a high standard with modern white suites. The bathroom has a P-shaped bath with shower screen, wash hand basin and a W.C, whilst the shower room has a W.C, vanity unit and a fully tiled shower enclosure.
