Situated in a quiet semi-rural position on the edge of the small hamlet of Cefn Gorwydd, Ty Croes is a detached three-bedroom dormer bungalow offering generous and flexible accommodation, attractive gardens, useful outbuildings and far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside.
Originally built around 1952, the property has been extended over the years, most notably with the addition of the first-floor principal bedroom suite and balcony. The result is a versatile home which combines the practicality of bungalow living with additional first-floor accommodation and an elevated outlook over the surrounding landscape.
The ground floor provides a good balance of living and bedroom accommodation. The kitchen is positioned towards the rear of the property and is complemented by a useful utility room. There are two double bedrooms on this level, together with the family bathroom, making the property suitable for those looking for predominantly single-storey living.
There is a well-proportioned reception room, off the kitchen, with a multi-fuel burner, offering useful flexibility as a sitting room, snug, dining room or additional entertaining space.
A second reception room also benefits from a multi-fuel burner, providing a comfortable focal point during the colder months.
Stairs rise to the first floor, where the principal bedroom provides a particularly impressive addition to the property. Generously proportioned, the bedroom benefits from a dressing room and its own bathroom facilities, while doors open onto a balcony from which the surrounding views can be enjoyed. This elevated position makes the room a particularly peaceful space within the house.
Outside, the property is approached via a driveway providing parking and access to a carport. The gardens extend to the front, side and rear, with the rear garden predominantly laid to lawn and enclosed by a mature hedgerow. Raised vegetable beds provide an opportunity for those with an interest in gardening or growing produce, while the established planting gives the gardens a mature feel.
There is also a wood shed, greenhouse and storage shed adjacent to the carport, providing useful additional storage and practical space for gardening equipment and outdoor pursuits.
The property also benefits from solar panels and electric heating, alongside the two multi-fuel burners.
The location is a key feature. Positioned away from the immediate bustle of larger settlements, the property enjoys a peaceful rural setting while remaining within easy reach of Llanwrtyd Wells, widely recognised as Britain’s smallest town. Despite its size, the town has a strong community feel and a lively calendar of events throughout the year, including the famous World Bog Snorkelling Championships, Man v Horse Marathon, World Alternative Games and the annual Real Ale events.
The town provides a range of local amenities and places to eat and drink, together with a railway station on the scenic Heart of Wales Line between Shrewsbury and Swansea. The surrounding Cambrian Mountains also provide an excellent setting for walking, cycling, mountain biking and exploring the wider countryside.
This combination of close-knit community, distinctive local events and access to some of Mid Wales' most impressive countryside gives the area a character of its own and adds to the appeal of living in this peaceful part of Wales.
Offered chain free, this is an appealing opportunity to acquire a detached rural home with flexible accommodation, impressive views, useful outbuildings and the space to enjoy a quieter pace of life, while remaining within easy reach of the welcoming community and amenities of Llanwrtyd Wells.
