Castle Caereinion, Welshpool, Powys

Situated in an attractive rural setting on the outskirts of the village of Castle Caereinion, this presents a rare opportunity to acquire an established smallholding extending to approximately 27 acres, together with a traditional farmhouse, detached annexe and an extensive range of agricultural buildings.

The farmhouse offers spacious and versatile accommodation comprising a boot room, utility room, ground floor shower room, farmhouse kitchen, sitting room, dining room and office. To the first floor are four bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite facilities, together with a family bathroom. Complementing the main residence is a modern detached two-bedroom annexe situated within the farmyard, providing ideal accommodation for dependent relatives or for potential income, subject to any necessary consents.
The farmstead benefits from a substantial range of useful agricultural and general-purpose buildings arranged around a concrete yard. Many of the buildings are equipped with power, lighting and water supplies and are suitable for a variety of agricultural, storage or commercial uses, subject to any required permissions. The buildings and yard provide direct access to the surrounding pastureland, making the holding well suited to livestock enterprises and small-scale farming.

The Property

Stepping into the farmhouse, you are welcomed into a useful entrance hall with access to the utility room, boot room and ground floor shower room. The boot room and shower room offer flexibility and could easily be adapted to provide ground floor living accommodation if required. From the hallway, you are welcomed into a traditional farmhouse kitchen, the heart of the home, with a central dining area surrounded by a range of useful wall and base units, space for a Rangemaster-style cooker and a useful pantry. Double doors lead through to the sitting room, creating an open-plan feel when desired whilst also allowing the rooms to be separated, creating a cosy space centred around the log-burning stove. Leading from the sitting room is the dining room, with a window to the front elevation enjoying views across the surrounding countryside and allowing natural light to flood the room. Completing the ground floor accommodation is a useful office and separate WC.

...

Stairs rise to the first-floor landing, providing access to four double bedrooms, each enjoying delightful views across the surrounding land and countryside. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room comprising a shower cubicle, WC and wash hand basin. Completing the first floor is the family bathroom, fitted with a stunning freestanding bath, WC and wash hand basin.

...

The annexe provides further accommodation and has been converted by the current owners to create a modern and versatile living space. The accommodation comprises an open-plan kitchen and living room, spacious wet room, useful utility room and two double bedrooms, making it ideal for multi-generational living, dependent relatives, guest accommodation or ancillary use alongside the main farmhouse. Immediately to the front of the farmhouse are the lawns with central patio area, steps lead down from the gardens to the paddocks to the woodland beyond.

...

Extending to approximately 27 acres, the smallholding comprises a useful combination of productive pasture and an area of established native woodland, offering an attractive balance of agricultural and environmental appeal. The grazing land is divided into a number of grass paddocks, well suited to livestock or general smallholding use. A comprehensive range of traditional and modern agricultural buildings provides excellent infrastructure for those wishing to continue farming operations, whilst also presenting potential for alternative uses, subject to the necessary planning consents. The central barn, in particular, offers an exciting opportunity for conversion (subject to planning permission). The principal farmyard is well equipped, with concrete-floored buildings throughout. The upper livestock building incorporates cattle cubicles together with a collection yard and feeding barriers, making it well suited for cattle housing and handling.

...

Positioned at the lower end of the yard are four further steel-framed agricultural buildings, including a former sheep shed complete with its original footbath. In addition, three further steel-framed buildings, currently utilised for general storage, formerly served as the property's silage clamps and are complemented by an adjoining wood store.
