Nantycaws, Carmarthen, Carmarthenshire, SA32

An outstanding 17.1-acre equestrian holding offering an impressive four/five-bedroom farmhouse, two beautifully converted stone holiday cottages and an extensive range of equestrian facilities.

Occupying a peaceful rural position along a quiet country lane, the property combines beautiful countryside surroundings with excellent accessibility, lying approximately 1.5 miles from the A48 and four miles from the market town of Carmarthen.

Quiet country lanes and numerous local bridleways provide superb hacking, while the vegetable garden, chicken enclosure, private water supply and wood burner offer an appealing degree of self-sufficiency.

Three separate entrances serve the principal areas of the smallholding, providing excellent privacy and flexibility between the farmhouse, holiday cottages and equestrian facilities. The farmhouse is approached through a gated entrance into a generous courtyard, with the cottages positioned to make the most of their attractive rural setting.

Equestrian Facilities

The principal stable block, measuring approximately 74'3" x 48'3", currently provides 14 loose boxes, with an adjoining hay barn offering substantial storage. The yard provides ample space for horseboxes, machinery and vehicles, while a four-horse-walker and separate tack room provide further dedicated equestrian facilities. Two additional loose boxes and a covered field shelter are situated towards the upper end of the yard.

The stable area provides access to the sand school and onwards to a post-and-rail paddock bordering the gallops.

The impressive all-weather gallops are accessed separately further along the lane and comprise a circular track, long straight and separate schooling straight with fences. Full drainage allows for year-round use.

The approximately 17.1 acres are highly usable and productive, suitable for grazing, cropping or equestrian use, and divided into manageable enclosures with established hedgerows and post-and-rail fencing.

Main Farmhouse

Beautifully presented throughout, the farmhouse combines generous accommodation with traditional character. At its heart is the open-plan kitchen/dining room with flagstone slate flooring, bespoke cabinetry and a cast-iron Celt range cooker.

The ground floor also offers a large sun room, principal sitting room with patio doors opening onto the private garden and terrace, a further cosy reception room with wood-burning stove, home office, downstairs WC, laundry space and understairs cloakroom.

Upstairs are four double bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate shower room. The impressive principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite bathroom, with a further room currently used as a dressing room offering the flexibility of a fifth bedroom.

Outside are extensive mature gardens together with a greenhouse, productive vegetable garden, chicken enclosure, workshop, outdoor utility shed and separate garage.

Holiday Cottages

Holiday Cottage One is a beautifully converted stone barn offering two double bedrooms and an open-plan kitchen/living space with French doors opening onto its patio and garden. Exposed beams and slate flooring add considerable character, while a self-contained annexe above part of the cottage provides an additional bedroom.

Holiday Cottage Two is an attractive two-storey barn conversion with an open-plan kitchen/living area opening directly onto a private patio and garden with sweeping countryside views. A handmade oak staircase leads to two double bedrooms and a shower room.

Both cottages benefit from allocated parking and their own independent access, and together have established a successful holiday-let business with a proven 10-year income stream.

In addition to the three dwellings is a substantial stone barn (61'4 x 18'5) offering exciting potential for further development, subject to the necessary planning consents, together with a Dutch barn (60' x 19'5), separate garage, workshop (16'4 x 13'5) and additional useful outbuildings.

Combining a substantial country home, established turn-key holiday-let income, extensive equestrian facilities and approximately 17.1 acres, this is a rare and highly versatile lifestyle opportunity. Ideally suited to equestrian enthusiasts, those seeking greater self-sufficiency or purchasers looking for an established rural business with further development potential.
