About this property

  • Cwmbern is a traditional and unspoilt coastal small farm occupying an idyllic valley position near the Ceredigion heritage coastline and only about 1.4 miles away from the stunning sandy beach at Tresaith. It is believed that the traditional and character farmhouse is thought to date c.1810 – 1830s, though the farm has existed from the early 17th century. Over the years the farmhouse has been adapted and improved, including Accoya double glazing to the front, and now provides a cosy and comfortable home while retaining its character and charm. The farmhouse sits at the head of a traditional old farmyard around which are a range of outbuildings including stone barns with conversion potential and some more modern outbuildings that suit a variety of uses.

    The farm extends to about 57 acres and includes a valuable and interesting variety of land with fields suitable for cropping adjoining the road, other grazing fields and paddocks together with some pretty areas of deciduous woodland. A stream separates two of the fields and forms part of the boundary. From the top of the farm, a water system feeds tanks on the fields and taps on the yard and garden. In all, the property offers the opportunity for new owners to acquire a sizable holding offering both a delightful location to live in and exciting potential to adapt and look at other potential income streams (e.g. tourism diversification - stp - subject to planning) as well as small-scale farming.

    Accommodation Ground Floor
    A welcoming front entrance porch leads into the reception hall with doors opening off to the principal reception rooms. On the right is the living room/snug featuring a beamed ceiling and a wood burning stove providing a warm focal point. A door on the left of the hall leads into the living/dining room. This charming room includes a beamed ceiling and an oil-fired Rayburn range used for cooking and hot water. A door leads off this room to the bright study/reception room/ ground floor bedroom that enjoys pretty views across the valley fields – perfect for keeping of ponies and horses so that they are in sight from the house.

    Another door opens from the living/dining room to the kitchen at the rear of the house that includes fitted cabinets, Belfast sink, top loading washing machine and slimline dishwasher. Doors lead to the rear garden and the bathroom with bath and separate shower.

    First Floor
    Stairs rise from the reception hall to the first floor accommodation that includes two bedrooms that overlook the farmyard with one having built in wardrobes. There is also a useful box room and an attic area for storage. The attic half way up the stairs provides potential to re-configure and possibly raise the roof to provide further accommodation space.

    Externally and The Outbuildings
    The farmhouse itself enjoys a garden area with grassed areas, raised beds and a greenhouse. To the front, there is a patio where you can watch the stunning sunsets over the sea. Set around the traditional farmyard are an array of outbuildings that are suitable for a variety of uses. They include a mix of traditional stone barns together with more modern block built outbuildings, Dutch Barn with lean-to and some useful open-span modern barns. The stone barns offer conversion potential info further accommodation (stp) while the other barns are useful for stabling, keeping of livestock, feed and machinery, storage and workshop/hobby purposes.

    Below is a list of the outbuildings:

    1. Cart shed/car parking
    2. Stock shed with access to field
    3. Two loose boxes with gates
    4. Double stone loose box with doors
    5. Stone old dairy/cowshed/tack room with loft above
    6. Dutch barn with lean to
    7. Hay shed
    8. Stock pen
    9. Machinery shed

    The Land
    The farm extends to about 57 acres and includes a valuable and interesting variety of land with field suitable for cropping (silage, hay making etc) adjoining the road with other grazing fields and paddocks nearer the farmstead for livestock, horses, ponies etc together with some pretty areas of deciduous woodland. It offers a variety of habitats, hosting dozens of bird species and a variety of small mammals, trees and wild flowers. In all, the property offers the opportunity for new owners to acquire a sizable holding offering both a delightful location to live in and exciting potential to adapt and look at other potential tourism diversification income streams (stp) e.g. camping, glamping, bird-watching, holiday cottages/ accommodation as well small-scale (possible rare-breed) farming.

I love the coastal and idyllic valley position of this farm while the unspoilt nature of the farmhouse and farmyard is a real attraction.
