Former Place of Worship -Development Opportunity
Offered for sale is this substantial former place of worship positioned within generous sized grounds within a popular semi-rural village, yet providing good access to the beaches of Carmarthen Bay. In our opinion, the building would offer a suitable development opportunity along with potential to create its own entrance with off road parking, both being subject to all necessary relevant consents. The property consists of the former church‚ lychgate‚ access way (coloured yellow) and the section of the graveyard without any marked graves all shown edged red on the plan. The graveyard shown coloured green will be retained by our client. As part of the sale our client will reserve a right of way over the access way. The property is of solid stone construction with a pitched slate roof with bell tower. Attractive features include single glazed stained-glass windows and beautiful arched tongue and groove timber ceilings and a bell tower.
From Carmarthen proceed West on the main A40 dual carriageway towards St Clears and carry on for approximately 5 miles until you arrive at a junction signposted Llanybri/Llangynog. Turn left down the lane and proceed on for approx. 6 miles passing through the village of Llangynog until arriving at Llanybri. On leaving the village take a right turning at small junction and continue along a short distance and the property can be found further along on the right.
Accommodation Entrance porch (13' 06" x 8' 01") or (4.11m x 2.46m) with spiral staircase to bell tower, Church/Nave/Chancel (85' 0" x 23' 0") or (25.91m x 7.01m), Vestry Room (13' 09" x 7' 09") or (4.19m x 2.36m).
