Description

A development and renovation opportunity comprising a derelict farmhouse and derelict outbuildings set in a wonderfully rural position around 1 mile from the village of Llanbrynmair. This compelling development and renovation project offers buyers the chance to transform a former farmhouse and its associated buildings into a unique countryside home or multi-unit residential retreat. Enjoying an elevated position with superb views, the property sits within approximately 0.85 acres of grounds and includes a chalet for temporary accommodation during redevelopment.

The Property
This former smallholding comprises a derelict farmhouse and a range of traditional outbuildings offering significant scope for redevelopment (subject to planning permission). The site previously benefitted from planning permission to restore the farmhouse and convert the outbuildings into a second dwelling, providing a precedent for future applications.
The site presents an opportunity for those seeking a project with potential for full residential rehabilitation, multi-unit conversion, holiday accommodation, creative studio or workshop spaces subject to planning permission. A chalet is already positioned on the land, offering practical temporary accommodation while works are undertaken.

Planning
The site previously benefitted from planning permission (Ref: 20/0599/FUL) which has since expired. For further information contact Powys County Council, Tel: ,

Note - Buyers are requested to make their own enquiries regarding the present connection or reconnection of these services.

Note - We understand that a public footpath and bridleway runs through the property.

Viewing
All interested parties are respectfully requested to communicate directly with the selling agents. When visiting the site viewers will need to exercise extreme caution as what remains standing of the buildings are in a very dilapidated and unstable condition.
