Description
An Iconic Aeron Valley Smallholding only 1 mile from Aberaeron - a unique renovation opportunity!
Delightfully positioned approximately 1 mile from Aberaeron, being originally part of the historic Llanerchaeron Estate.
A Grade II listed 2 bedroom cottage ripe for renovation and refurbishment, together with a stone and slate barn believed to be the original forge, with detached workshop, off road parking and rear gardens, orchard and paddock, in all approximately 3.27 acres.
Location
Delightfully located approximately 1 mile from Aberaeron, within walking distance of the town via an attractive cycle path and also close to the Llanerchaeron house and visitor centre. Beautifully nestled in the low reaches of the Aeron Valley, enjoying fine views over the wooded valley beyond, yet being convenient to the destination town of Aberaeron, renowned for its popular bars, restaurants, hotels and colourful houses surrounding the picturesque harbour.
The property is also convenient to the larger town of Aberystwyth to the north and Cardigan to the south.
The Cottage
Which has been sadly vacant for a number of years, is now ripe for renovation and provides a unique opportunity to develop a Grade II listed cottage with the further potential of conversion of an adjacent outbuilding (STC,) a detached stone outbuilding and further workshop. The property is being offered with the paddock to the rear, and affords more particularly the following:
Front entrance door

Rear hallway
Having rear entrance door, access to loft, cloakroom with W.C.

Externally
Adjacent to the property, with a door from the dining room, is a former forge area. The property is approached via a gated entrance having a private forecourt which leads to the detached stone and slate building, thought to be the original forge with, in our opinion, significant potential for alternative uses.
Gardens
To the rear of the property is an attractive mature garden area with traditional cottage style garden, having some lovely old apple trees and grassed areas, in all approximately 0.35 of an acre.
Land
There is a level paddock to the rear with roadside frontage, making this a unique opportunity for developing a lovely country property close to Aberaeron.
