Description

Cwm Brynarw Barn offers a desirable smallholding package set in a private accessible location within the settlement of Bettws within the Brecon Beacons National Park offering a characterful detached three bedroom barn conversion with outbuilding and land and woodland extending in total to 24.71 acres.

The Property

Cwm Brynarw Barn is a charming three bedroom barn conversion with characterful features throughout including stone walling and exposed beams. Its accommodation is arranged across several levels, combining arrow-slit windows and feature fireplaces with a modern country-style kitchen and open living spaces.

The front entrance opens into a porch with a useful coat cupboard. Steps lead down to a shower room with a walk-in shower, WC and wash basin, with access through to the kitchen.

The kitchen has a range of base units, a central island and breakfast bar incorporating a Rangemaster cooker, and a mix of timber and granite worktops. Windows overlook the rear of the property, while a door opens onto the paved patio, perfect for alfresco dining.

Steps from the kitchen rise to an open dining area with oak flooring, continuing up to the sitting room. Here, an engineered oak floor and a feature fireplace with wood-burning stove create a welcoming place to relax. From the sitting room, steps lead down to a double bedroom with a fireplace, windows to two aspects and French doors opening onto the rear patio.

A further double bedroom is reached by steps from the sitting area and features exposed beams, a window and an arrow-slit window. A separate staircase rises from the dining area to a landing with an open balcony and a striking window feature overlooking the sitting room. From here there is access to an airing cupboard, a family bathroom with bath and separate shower, and the principal bedroom, which enjoys windows to the front and side.

Outside

A private driveway leads down to the barn, which is situated in an extremely private position. Positioned on the left-hand side of the driveway is a large outbuilding which is a two door monopitched building with box profile elevations under a tin sheeted roof. Internally it benefits from a hardcore and concreted floor. The building is connected to mains water and electricity and is versatile providing the perfect housing for stables but would also be suited for a range of possible uses.

Directly opposite the outbuilding on the other side of the access drive is a fenced off roughly triangular shaped compartment which has historically been used as a garden area featuring a garden shed with cascading terraced beds and an outside seating / BBQ area at the bottom.

The land and woodland at Cwm Brynarw Barn extend out to the south-east. The principal property drive leads down beyond the dwelling into the land with the woodland on the north-eastern side and the land on the south-west. The land and woodland are gently rising up to the south-west. The first compartment of woodland extends to approximately 3.12 acres which is young established native broadleaves planted some 20 years ago. Beyond this is a 4.64 acre compartment of native ancient woodland which provides a wonderful mix of old and new.

The pastureland is predominantly set out over four field enclosures extending to approximately 15.53 acres and benefits from an independent access track from the Bettws Road. The land is all gently sloping to gently undulating elevated permanent pastureland which is stock fenced providing useful grazing for livestock and could all be mown for fodder.
