The Bwlch - Originally constructed circa 1522, The Bwlch is a fine example of a medieval Welsh cruck-framed farmhouse, Grade II listed and later extended. In more recent years, the current owners have undertaken a thoughtful programme of improvement, including the conversion of the adjoining barns.
The result is a highly successful combination of historic character and modern open-plan living, with flexibility to accommodate extended family living if desired.

The area is renowned for its natural beauty, with a wealth of walking routes nearby and a variety of sites of historical and scientific interest within easy reach. Despite its peaceful setting, the property remains accessible to the nearby market towns of Llandrindod Wells and Newtown, both offering day-to-day facilities, schooling and leisure facilities.

Sporting: The area offers excellent outdoor pursuits including walking, riding and cycling, together with nearby shooting, fishing and golf facilities, all set within some of Mid Wales’ most scenic countryside.
The Accommodation - The property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a historic Welsh farmhouse blended with contemporary living spaces, creating a home of immense character and versatility. The original cruck-framed structure, dating from the early 16th century, retains a wealth of period features, including impressive exposed timbers, inglenook-style fireplaces and charming rooms, all of which combine to reflect the property’s rich heritage and architectural significance.
The principal farmhouse accommodation is centred around a welcoming entrance hall, leading through to a large bespoke open-plan kitchen, thoughtfully designed with a central island, exposed beams and a wood-burning stove, forming a warm and sociable heart to the home. This space is ideally suited to both everyday family life and informal entertaining alike. Further ground floor accommodation includes a characterful lounge with open fire, together with a snug, office area, utility room and shower facilities, providing flexibility for modern living requirements.
A particularly striking feature is the adjoining barn conversion, which offers an impressive double-height space with mezzanine levels, creating an adaptable environment suitable for a variety of uses, whether as additional living accommodation, workspace or independent ancillary space.
To the first floor, the property provides a well-appointed principal suite with dressing area and en-suite, complemented by further bedrooms and bathroom facilities. Overall, the layout offers excellent flexibility, making it ideally suited to multi-generational living, home-working or potential income opportunities, subject to the necessary consents.
Gardens & Grounds - The property is approached via a gravelled driveway leading to a generous parking and turning area.

A large paved and gravelled terrace provides an ideal space for outdoor entertaining, enjoying a predominantly southerly aspect and views across the surrounding countryside. Beyond the formal gardens lie useful paddocks extending to approximately 6.3 acres, together with a further area of woodland and a Dutch barn, offering excellent amenity and lifestyle appeal.
