Well located just a short distance inland from Aberystwyth a detached 3 Bedroomed farmhouse together with traditional outbuilding ripe for development and approximately 14 acres of land.

The hamlet of Capel Madog is within 6 miles of Aberystwyth in an area of unspoilt countryside. The nearby village of Capel Dewi provides access to the A4159 road for ease of access to Aberystwyth and beyond.

Aberystwyth is the largest town in the area with both local and National retailers as well as some tourist attractions. Major employers include the Welsh government offices, the University, National Library of Wales and Bronglais Hospital.

Gelli Fadog is approached over a farm track from the quiet council road. The majority of the land is down to productive pastures with an area of woodland alongside a tributary of the River Peithyll.
