Pen Y Coed, Llanwnog - SY17 5PA

There are properties that make you pause, and Pen Y Coed is one of them. Set in a lovely elevated position in the heart of the Mid Wales countryside, this four-bedroom farmhouse has been transformed by its current owners into something truly special. Dating back to the early 1800s, the property has been lovingly and thoughtfully renovated since 2014, with no corner left untouched and no detail overlooked. Solid oak internal doors, carefully placed new windows to make the very most of the setting, and a standard of finish throughout that has to be seen to be appreciated. The result is a home that feels simultaneously rooted in its history and entirely ready for modern family life, offered to the market with no onward chain. You enter the house through a large utility and boot room, a proper working entrance for a proper country home, with plenty of storage, space for coats and boots, and a downstairs shower room directly off it. From here a door leads through into the heart of the house. The farmhouse kitchen is a lovely, generous room with exposed beams overhead, bags of character and just enough of a view from the sink to remind you exactly where you are. There is plenty of room for a table, and an archway leads through to the rest of the ground floor. The dining room sits to the left, currently used as a playroom, and is a good-sized characterful space with its own log burner and lovely views out over the Mid Wales countryside. The living room is beautifully proportioned and full of light, with a second log burner in a magnificent exposed brick inglenook. The beams throughout are wonderful, proper old timbers that quietly show the age of the building. Off the main staircase sits a further room, currently used as an office but would make a lovely snug or fifth bedroom. Upstairs, the master bedroom suite is a genuine highlight. The owners created this space themselves, a large, light-filled double room with its own en suite bathroom with a bath, basin and WC, and a real sense of space and privacy. Three further double bedrooms are all a good size and full of that characteristic charm you hope for in a well-renovated period home, with bedroom three enjoying those same lovely far-reaching views. The main family bathroom is a lovely newly fitted space with a walk-in shower. Two staircases give the house a lovely natural flow, and storage throughout is tucked away and practical, as you would expect in a house of this age. Outside, the wraparound gardens are laid mainly to lawn and enjoy lovely far-reaching views on all sides. A terrace off the rear of the house is a wonderful spot for sitting out, and the grounds as a whole feel private and generous without being unmanageable. The garden is fully enclosed and makes a lovely safe space for children and animals alike. A long private driveway sweeps in from the lane with heaps of parking for multiple vehicles. The outbuildings are something else entirely. The principal barn is a handsome timber-clad building with a large solar array on the roof, and inside it houses a workshop that any enthusiast would love. Set up with three-phase electrics and a mechanics pit, with a further connected workshop space alongside, the scope here is considerable. An open-fronted covered area to one side provides additional storage for timber and equipment. A further steel-framed outbuilding sits separately on the plot, and attached to the house itself is an older stone store, thought at one time to have been a pigsty, which adds yet more practical space. The property also benefits from a solar panel system connected to a 10.2kW battery storage setup, providing an efficient and forward-thinking energy solution. An electric vehicle charge point is installed, adding further practicality for modern living. The land is a real draw. The paddock extends away from the yard, fenced and gated, and ideal for a pony, chickens, or simply giving children the kind of space to roam that you only find in the countryside. A lovely wildlife pond sits at the far end, fringed with bulrushes and mature trees, its surface reflecting the sky and the hills beyond. There is a further area of woodland and rough ground rising behind the buildings, and the whole plot amounts to around three acres of genuinely lovely Mid Wales countryside. Pen Y Coed is a special home, full of heart, beautifully finished and set in one of the nicest spots in Mid Wales. Homes like this are few and far between.
