DESCRIPTION

Pentre Bach offers purchaser’s the opportunity to acquire a character period family home together with a pair of holiday cottages which are generating a useful source of income. Indeed, there is scope to derive additional income streams as historically Pentre Bach operated as a Bed & Breakfast business and there is scope for camping & pods in the field, subject to the availability of planning permission. Pentre Bach is conveniently situated on the edge of the village and is set well back from the road being approached via a long tree lined drive. It comprises an attractive period residence which is believed to date in part from the late 17th century. It is constructed primarily from stone with rendered elevations to part beneath a slate roof with decorative barge boards on the gable end. The house has the benefit of UPVC double-glazed windows, oil central heating and solar panels.

OUTBUILDINGS

Against the drive is a traditional stone barn (15m x 4.65m approx.) beneath a slate roof. It is a single storey building currently providing storage and a games roof accessed by a series of double doors opening onto the drive. Adjacent to this range is an open fronted 3 bay pole barn (10m x 3m approx.) for storing machinery and logs.

GARDENS & GROUNDS

Against the south gable end there is parking for several cars and a further stone outhouse with lean to housing the domestic oil tanks. Adjacent to the parking area there is a paved patio which takes advantage of the afternoon and evening sun and from which there are panoramic sea views. A lawned garden extends along the front of the house against the west elevation interspersed with ornamental cherry and oak trees and there is a ha-ha against the paddock. A stone path against the west elevation leads to a part walled orchard with circular brick entrance. The orchard contains a selection of fruit trees and there is a raised decked seating area. Adjacent to the orchard is a walled kitchen garden with raised beds and a slightly dilapidated timber framed greenhouse. The kitchen garden also contains a further selection of fruit trees, composting bins and within the wall is an opening providing access to the paddock which is laid to grass and ideal for those wishing to keep a horse. In the corner of the paddock is a small meandering stream. Adjacent to the cottages are a series of patio areas and Y Popty has the benefit of an enclosed walled garden with small grassed area & borders containing hydrangea, agapanthus, roses and a mature magnolia tree.

DIRECTIONS
