Description

A private 21.75-acre Smallholding with Period Farmhouse, detached 2 bedroom cottage and extensive outbuildings

Set at the end of a quiet country lane with no immediate neighbours, Talgoed is an exceptionally attractive and well-presented country smallholding comprising a five-bedroom period farmhouse, a detached two-bedroom holiday cottage, substantial traditional and modern outbuildings, and approximately 21.75 acres of pasture and mature woodland.

Rarely does a holding of this calibre come to market offering privacy, versatility and immediate usability with minimal further work required.

The Farmhouse

This attractive period home offers spacious and well-balanced accommodation arranged over two floors, blending character features with practical family living.

The ground floor provides three generous reception rooms, including a sitting room and dining room — both benefitting from fireplaces that create warm and inviting focal points. A large kitchen/dining room forms the heart of the home, ideal for entertaining and everyday family life, complemented by a utility room and downstairs cloakroom. To the first floor are five bedrooms in total, including a principal bedroom with en-suite shower room, together with additional well-proportioned bedrooms served by family facilities. The layout offers flexibility for family living, guest accommodation or home working.

The property is presented in good condition throughout and benefits from encouraging EPC ratings.

Talgoed Cottage

Positioned privately away from the main farmhouse, Talgoed Cottage provides beautifully arranged and highly versatile additional accommodation, ideal for holiday letting, multigenerational living, guest use or independent family occupation. The cottage is thoughtfully designed in an attractive “upside-down” configuration to maximise the superb rural views.

To the ground floor are two generous double bedrooms together with a well-appointed shower room. The first floor opens into a particularly spacious open-plan living area, filled with natural light and enjoying elevated countryside views — creating a wonderful entertaining or relaxation space.

Well presented throughout, the cottage offers immediate usability with strong lifestyle and income potential, forming an integral part of the overall appeal of Talgoed as a complete smallholding opportunity.

Outbuildings & Grounds

Talgoed is set within approximately 21 acres, thoughtfully arranged to suit a range of lifestyle and smallholding needs:

  • 14 acres of pasture

  • 7 acres of approximately 20-year-old woodland

The outbuildings are substantial and versatile, including:

  • A very large garage

  • A workshop

  • A woodshed

  • A separate wood store

  • A potting shed

  • Additional traditional stone buildings offering exciting potential for further development (subject to the necessary consents), whether for additional accommodation, studio or creative workspace.

The combination of usable land, mature woodland and flexible buildings makes Talgoed one of the more attractive and manageable smallholdings currently available.
