3 bed cottage for sale

Taliaris, Llandeilo, Carmarthenshire SA19

We are pleased to offer this well-maintained three-bedroom detached Welsh longhouse, rich in history and set within private grounds with off-road parking for three vehicles. This charming property, which is not listed, is a must-see.

Believed to have originally served as the former stables to the historic Maerdy Estate, this unique Welsh stone-built longhouse, understood to date from the 1730’s, is full of character and history. Its most striking feature is the impressive frontage, boasting 13 elegant stone-arched windows that flood the home with natural light.

The property sympathetically blends period charm with modern-day living.
The current owners have comprehensively renovated and modernised the property over the last six years, including re-wiring, re-plumbing, re-laying the traditional slate floors, and installing a solid oak suspended floor to the dining room.

A tailor-made kitchen has been installed, as well as a contemporary bathroom, cloakroom and Future Fires wood-burning stove.

The accommodation briefly comprises an open-plan kitchen/dining room, a spacious living room, three double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a cloakroom.

Externally, the property benefits from a driveway providing off-road parking for up to three vehicles, together with a secluded lawned garden featuring a gentle stream running through the grounds and a paved patio area, perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining.

The property is ideally situated in the rural hamlet of Taliaris, offering excellent links to both Llandeilo and Llandovery. The market town of Llandeilo, rated by the Sunday Times as one of the best places to live in Wales, is approximately 3 miles away and offers a wide range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, supermarkets, schools and leisure facilities.
