Description

Ty Mawr

We are incredibly excited to bring to the market Ty Mawr, an historic and truly exceptional opportunity in the sought after village of Hirwaun.

Coming to the market for the first time in over 60 years, this remarkable purchase includes a substantial 4 bedroom period home, a separate recently renovated 3 bedroom cottage, approximately 4 acres of land and an important piece of local Welsh history. Rarely do properties of this scale, character and potential become available.

Set within a wonderfully private position surrounded by mature greenery and peaceful grounds, Ty Mawr offers endless possibilities. Whether you are searching for a multi-generational living arrangement, holiday let opportunity, equestrian potential, business use (subject to relevant permissions) or simply a stunning long term family project, this impressive estate has the space and flexibility to become something truly special.

The main house is filled with charm, character and generous proportions throughout and is ready for sympathetic modernisation. The welcoming entrance hallway immediately showcases the scale and history of the property and leads to 2 spacious reception rooms, both enjoying large windows, beautiful natural light and feature fireplaces. The kitchen offers excellent proportions and huge future potential while overlooking the quiet surrounding grounds. A further utility/storage area adds practicality and additional scope for improvement.

Upstairs are 4 large bedrooms, all generous in size and full of character, along with the family bathroom complete with both bath and separate shower. The property retains a wonderful sense of history throughout and presents an incredible opportunity for a buyer to restore and enhance a truly special home.

The cottage has been recently renovated and is beautifully presented throughout, making it ideal for extended family, guest accommodation or income potential. The cottage boasts a cosy and inviting living room, a modern and well equipped kitchen and a beautifully presented bathroom. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms, all well presented and generous in size, creating a turnkey additional home within the grounds.

Externally, the grounds are simply outstanding. The combination of lawned gardens, mature trees, paddocks and open land create a peaceful and incredibly private setting with approximately 4 acres to enjoy. The approach to the property immediately feels special and secluded, while the surrounding grounds offer huge future potential. There is also extensive parking and garage space.

Ty Mawr is not simply a property purchase, but an opportunity to own a fascinating piece of Welsh history in one of the area’s most sought after villages. A truly once in a generation home with enormous potential, exceptional grounds and endless possibilities.
