A very well presented character SMALLHOLDING with around 5.5 acres of pastureland (some of which has been planted with young woodland) which has had extensive improvements undertaken by our clients over the recent years to provide what is now a very comfortable home with two very useful home offices in addition to other useful outbuildings. This represents a "classic" Smallholding as our clients enjoy being as "self sufficient" as possible as you will see should you decide to view this lovely holding located just a 10 minute drive from the market town of Newcastle Emlyn. In the house there is a hallway, lounge, dining room leading into a spacious attractive kitchen, shower/utility room, on the first floor there are 4 bedrooms and a second family bathroom. There are far reaching views across the beautiful Welsh countryside with just one other neighbour in the vicinity - great for security !

The property is accessed via a country lane, there is off-road parking to the side of the property with an electric charging point and a pedestrian gateway through to the rear of the property. There are large gardens mainly laid to lawn with vegetable and flower beds with a small patio and decking area to the rear of the house.
There are two garden offices both with heating and lighting and our current vendors also have an internet connection. One measuring 5.4m x 2.5m has a potting shed attached and also has a small patio with water feature. The other measures 5m x 3m and has a large patio and a BBQ shed, perfect for entertaining.
There are two large aluminum framed greenhouses with toughened glass (12' x 8') one of which has a grape vine. There is a purpose-built compost shed and an newly built barn (6m x 10m) with vehicle access from the lower field. The barn benefits from an electric supply to a consumer unit.
The workshop is approximately 15m x 5m (approx) which has been split into two areas which includes a large wood store. There are double doors at each end and electricity is connected. At the bottom end there is a hard-standing for further vehicles or an open working area.
The lower field was planted up with 1500 native trees and hedging in 2018 with a grant from The Woodland Trust. Within this woodland there are 6 leveled and seeded camping ptiches. At the bottom of the field is a hardstanding for up to two camper vans with water and electric hook-up. Our vendors had plans to build a compost toilet this summer. Campers have had access to the utility room facilities at the house if required. Once the trees are a little more established this will offer sheltered over-winter grazing. There are two road-access gateways. There is also a small shed currently used for straw storage.
The upper field offers good clean, gently sloping grazing with a small field shelter where the current owners raise sheep. There is a water trough which is not mains fed so water has to be transported up in the summer months. Our vendors have had sheep grazing all year around and have never been affected by flystrike. All fencing has been replaced in the last 5 years. A gateway leads through to:
The Orchard - which has been planted with various fruit trees including some rare Welsh varieties of apple, plum, damson, pear and cherry. It also includes juniper, blackthorn, hawthorn and various other native varieties. The duck pond is within the orchard with various other poultry housing within a secure area. There is a pedestrian gateway which leads back down to the formal gardens towards the house.
Our vendor advised that there is an opportunity to purchase by separate negotiation essential smallholding equipment ie, mini tractor, mower and various tools as well as the laying hens and flock of cute Call ducks - a "ready to roll" smallholding!
