Description
Dancapel Farmhouse – A Historic Grade II Listed Smallholding in an Idyllic Countryside Setting in Need of Modernisation
Price reviewed and refined to £400,000 to find the right buyers who will bring this property up to its full potential.
Set within the heart of West Wales' unspoiled landscape, Dancapel Farmhouse is a rare opportunity to own a Grade II listed country home with a rich and fascinating history. Believed to date from the early 19th century, the farmhouse location has connections to Whitland Abbey and the Cistercian monks, suggesting centuries of occupation in this timeless setting.
Enjoying a private position, the property is surrounded by three and a half acres of rolling countryside, offering breathtaking panoramic views over the undulating fields and hills of Carmarthenshire.
Despite its historic charm, Dancapel Farmhouse is in need of modernisation, presenting an exciting opportunity for buyers to create a beautiful country retreat tailored to their vision. The revised price reflects the potential for enhancement, making it a compelling investment for those seeking a rural lifestyle change, a smallholding venture, or a restoration project with character.
The extensive traditional outbuildings provide further scope, whether for equestrian pursuits, agriculture, or conversion opportunities (subject to planning consents).
Located just a short drive from Llandysul and Carmarthen, the farmhouse enjoys a perfect balance between seclusion and accessibility. The spectacular Ceredigion and Cardigan Bay coastline—renowned for its golden beaches, picturesque harbours, and dolphin-filled waters—is also within easy reach, offering coastal escapes just a stone’s throw from home.
For those seeking a peaceful, character-filled home in one of West Wales' most scenic and historic settings, Dancapel Farmhouse is an opportunity not to be missed.
