Llangoedmor, Cardigan, SA43 (with 2 self-contained holiday cottages)

One of West Wales' Most Important Country Houses. A Rare Opportunity of Exceptional Architectural Distinction.

Plas Treforgan stands apart. A Grade II* listed Regency country house of national architectural significance, officially described as:

"One of a small group of remarkable Nash-inspired country houses in Dyfed which have survived in largely unaltered form."

This is not simply a fine home. It is a piece of Welsh history, a place of genuine rarity, and an opportunity that comes to the market perhaps once in a generation. Dating to circa 1832 and set within approximately 14.6 acres of landscaped grounds, gardens, pastureland and ancient woodland, Plas Treforgan has been lovingly restored and preserved by its current owners over thirty years. The result is a house of extraordinary character and presence — yet one that functions beautifully as a warm, comfortable family home. Extending to almost 9,000 sq ft across principal house and outbuildings, the accommodation is as impressive as the setting.

Reception Hall

Arrival at Plas Treforgan is a statement in itself. A grand colonnaded entrance with fanlight above the front door opens into a breathtaking reception hall — flagstone floors underfoot, vaulted ceilings above, and elegant arches framing the space with effortless authority. This is a hall that sets the tone for everything that follows.

Main Reception Room

To the left, the principal reception room immediately impresses: polished boarded floors, a marble fireplace and a generous bay window drawing the eye across the gardens. A room of genuine presence, equally suited to formal entertaining as to quiet family evenings.

Main Dining Hall

Adjacent to the reception room, the dining room mirrors the elegance — boarded floor, bay window, garden views — a room made for long evenings and unhurried entertaining. The proportions are generous, the aspect delightful.

Library Room

A peaceful study overlooks the rear gardens, offering calm and contemplation — a space apart from the principal rooms, with its own quiet character.

Second Reception Room

A further cosy lounge at the front provides a more intimate retreat, with views over the front garden and grounds.

Kitchen

Moving through to the inner hall, the kitchen breakfast room opens up around a stunning full-height dresser, fitted cupboards and an electric Aga cooking range — a room that is simultaneously practical and deeply characterful. A pantry sits conveniently adjacent, providing excellent storage.

Informal Dining Room

Across the hall, a second informal dining room with its own fireplace provides flexibility for everyday family life — a space that will likely become the natural heart of the home.

Billiard Room

A reception room currently configured as a billiard room offers further versatile accommodation — a nod to the grand country house tradition that could equally serve as a games room, library or additional sitting room.

Utility Room

A separate utility room, cloakroom and generous store rooms complete the working areas of the ground floor — practical spaces well-suited to country house living.

Store Room One

Store Room Two

Cellar

Steps descend to a cellar complete with wine bins — a characterful and entirely appropriate addition to a house of this standing.

Bedroom Eight

Landing

The ascent to the first floor is one of Plas Treforgan's defining moments. A cantilever Bath stone staircase rises from the reception hall with quiet magnificence, arriving at a striking landing flooded with natural light from a circular skylight above — an architectural detail that alone would distinguish many a lesser house.

Principal Bedroom One

The first of the two principal bedrooms faces west, commanding bay window views across the gardens. A room of genuine quality and repose, complete with its own en suite bathroom.

Bedroom Two

The second principal bedroom enjoys the same westerly aspect and bay window garden views, also benefiting from an en suite bathroom. Two bedrooms of equal standing, each offering privacy and tranquility.

Bedroom Three

A generously proportioned double bedroom enjoying a delightful outlook over the gardens, offering a calm and inviting atmosphere with ample space for freestanding furnishings.

Bedroom Four

A bright and comfortable double bedroom overlooking the grounds, offering excellent versatility as a child’s bedroom, guest room or stylish home office if required.

Main Bathroom

A spacious and well-appointed family bathroom, elegantly finished and ideally situated to accommodate bedrooms three to six.

Bedroom Five

A spacious and beautifully presented double bedroom with garden views, well-balanced in its proportions and ideal for family living or guest accommodation.

Bedroom Six

A further substantial bedroom with a pleasant garden aspect, generous in scale and continuing the sense of quality and character found throughout the home.

Self-contained Apartment

At the eastern end of the first floor, a self-contained apartment offers exceptional flexibility: its own reception room, bedroom, bathroom and kitchen, with independent access via the side entrance below whilst remaining fully connected to the main house. Whether used as a guest suite, staff accommodation, dependent relative annexe or income-generating let, this space adds a meaningful dimension to the property's versatility.

The Cottages

Opening onto a charming cobbled courtyard, the Grade II listed stone outbuilding range has been thoughtfully converted into two self-contained holiday cottages that combine original character features with modern comfort throughout.

The Creamery

A two-bedroom cottage of great charm, The Creamery has operated as a successful holiday let and benefits from its own self-contained accommodation with all the character of the original stone building, sympathetically updated throughout.

Chapel & Outbuildings

The outbuildings are extensive and varied: a private chapel building, a garden pavilion, a summerhouse, stables, garages, workshops and stores — together forming a portfolio of supplementary spaces with scope for a wide range of uses, whether personal, commercial or both.

Garden

Walled Garden - The Grade II listed walled garden — listed in its own right for its group value with the wider property — is a productive and impressive space for those with a passion for growing. A kitchen garden of genuine scale and historic significance.

Garden

Grounds & Gardens - The wider grounds include large lawned areas, mature trees, hedges, shrubs, a large pond and beautifully maintained flower borders — landscaped grounds that frame the house to perfection and offer a constantly changing seasonal backdrop.
