Description
Possibly dating back as far as the 17th century, Gelliwrgan Farm a 3/4 bed farmhouse set within 3.901 acres, occupies a wonderfully private position on the outskirts of the village of Ynysybwl, within Rhondda Cynon Taf and close to the town of Pontypridd.

Combining tranquillity, heritage and convenience, Gelliwrgan Farm presents a rare opportunity to enjoy the best of both worlds: a private countryside retreat with town life and the M4 corridor readily accessible when required.

About The Property - Approached from the driveway, the ground floor opens into a practical utility area, with access to both a storeroom and boiler room. From here, stairs rise to the true heart of the home: an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living space designed for modern country living. Generously proportioned and wonderfully sociable, this inviting space is ideal for entertaining, while the substantial feature log burner creates a warm and atmospheric focal point for cosy evenings in the Welsh hills. Just off the kitchen, a hallway leads to a ground-floor shower room, a charming sitting room with its own feature fireplace, and a well-appointed ground-floor bedroom, the entrance hall itself can be used as an ancillary kitchen, for potential use as multi-generational living or other opportunities such as Air BnB subject to all necessary planning consents.
The first floor is accessed from the kitchen, opening directly into a versatile landing area currently arranged as an artist’s studio. This flexible space would lend itself beautifully to use as a study, creative retreat or fourth bedroom, subject to requirements. Continuing along the landing are two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom, completing the accommodation with a comfortable and well-balanced layout.
Gardens And Grounds - Gelliwrgan Farm is set within approximately four acres of attractive grounds, comprising small paddocks, woodland and established gardens. The holding includes a range of useful outbuildings, including pole-barn-style stabling and storage sheds, together with a characterful stone-built shed. The gardens are arranged to include both floral and productive vegetable areas, ideal for those seeking a more self-sufficient country lifestyle.
