About this property
EPC a-Rated Victorian Country Home in Idyllic Rhydywrach
Some homes offer period character, while others deliver the comfort and efficiency of modern living. This beautifully renovated late-Victorian country residence brings the two together, creating a warm and welcoming home surrounded by just under an acre of gardens and grounds.
Set along a quiet country lane in the sought-after rural hamlet of Rhydywrach, the property enjoys far-reaching countryside views and a wonderfully peaceful atmosphere. Mature gardens, fruit trees, useful outbuildings and an enclosed paddock all contribute to a lifestyle that feels immersed in nature, yet remains well connected to nearby villages and towns.
The house was sympathetically renovated in 2015, with great care taken to preserve its original character while preparing it for modern family life. The work included a full rewire, damp proofing and comprehensive insulation throughout the floors, walls and roof. Further improvements completed in late 2024 introduced an air-source heat pump, solar panels and a solid-fuel stove, ensuring the home remains comfortable throughout the seasons.
The result is particularly impressive: An EPC A rating, something exceptionally rare for a Victorian property. This outstanding level of energy efficiency offers the warmth and charm associated with a traditional country home, without the running costs often expected from a property of its age.
Inside, the accommodation is both stylish and practical. Two generous reception rooms provide inviting spaces for relaxing and entertaining, while the modern kitchen forms a bright and sociable heart to the home. Triple-aspect windows and French doors draw in natural light and create a lovely connection between the interior and the surrounding gardens.
Upstairs, there are three beautifully presented bedrooms alongside a recently refitted contemporary bathroom. The third bedroom is currently used as a walk-in wardrobe and workspace, with direct access from the master bedroom. This doorway could be closed to restore it as a completely separate bedroom; however, personally, we feel the space would make an exceptional dedicated dressing room or could potentially be transformed into a luxurious en-suite, subject to any necessary consents.
The house is ready to move into, allowing its next owners to settle in and enjoy the setting from the moment they arrive.
For those requiring additional space, the property benefits from current planning permission and full Building Regulations approval for a single-storey bedroom extension over the kitchen. A previous application for a more substantial two-storey rear extension has now lapsed but demonstrates the further potential available, subject to the necessary renewed permissions.
Outside, the grounds have been thoughtfully landscaped and lovingly planted. Mature apple, pear, plum and cherry trees bring blossom in spring and fruit later in the year, while the gardens provide plenty of room for outdoor dining, gardening and quiet moments surrounded by nature.
Several bespoke outbuildings offer useful and adaptable spaces for storage, hobbies or creative pursuits. Within the separate enclosed paddock is a static caravan connected to mains water, electricity and private drainage, providing potential for guest accommodation, a home workspace or other uses, subject to any necessary consents.
A public footpath passes through part of the grounds and has been thoughtfully and securely defined. Rather than detracting from the setting, it provides a wonderful connection to the surrounding countryside, allowing you to step from home and enjoy local walks without needing to take the car. One route leads naturally across the field and through the garden towards a picturesque pond regularly visited by geese, while a nearby hard-surfaced driveway offers an alternative, clean and convenient approach.
The sweeping driveway provides generous parking and level access around the property. Whether gathering beneath the fruit trees, watching the changing seasons, stargazing on a clear summer evening or settling beside the fire during winter, this is a home designed to be enjoyed throughout the year.
Practical considerations have been equally well addressed. The property is connected to mains electricity and water, with private septic tank drainage and an additional lpg supply. A natural spring is also believed to be present within the adjoining paddock. Excellent broadband speeds have enabled the current owner to work remotely with ease, including video calls, streaming and transferring large files.
Despite its peaceful rural setting, the property is far from isolated. Nearby Llanfallteg offers a friendly village community and popular local pub, while the award-winning market town of Narberth lies approximately six miles away. Widely regarded as one of the most desirable places to live in Wales, Narberth is known for its independent cafés, restaurants, boutiques, galleries and antique shops.
Bluestone National Park Resort, Folly Farm and the many beaches, countryside attractions and coastal destinations of West Wales are also within easy reach.
Rarely does a Victorian country home combine this degree of character, energy efficiency, lifestyle appeal and future potential. This is a property where period charm has been carefully preserved, modern comfort thoughtfully introduced and the surrounding countryside placed quite literally on the doorstep.
