A handsome Regency-style country house enjoying a glorious setting in the heart of the Bannau Brycheiniog National Park, with mature gardens, a studio and about 1.5 acres.
Pwll Court is an elegant and characterful country house dating from the mid-19th century which is in need of some modernisation and improvement. Attached to a range of former farm buildings yet enjoying an excellent degree of privacy, the property displays the classic proportions of a Regency three-bay design, with sash windows and French doors overlooking the gardens and surrounding countryside.
A long driveway approaches the house, leading to a generous gravelled parking area. The principal entrance opens into an impressive reception hall where decorative tiled flooring and striking proportions immediately establish the property's sense of character and scale. From here, tall double doors lead to the principal reception rooms.
The drawing room and dining room are both beautifully proportioned and retain a wealth of period features including shuttered windows, fireplaces, picture rails and timber floors. The drawing room opens into a delightful conservatory, where a mature vine creates a particularly attractive focal point.
The kitchen/breakfast/sitting room forms the heart of the home, providing a comfortable and sociable living space with views across the gardens. A utility room and cloakroom provide practical everyday accommodation.
Adjoining the house is a substantial studio, currently utilised as an artist's workspace. Offering excellent versatility, the space may lend itself to a range of alternative uses or potential integration into the main house, subject to any necessary consents.
On the first floor, a wide landing gives access to four generous bedrooms and two bathrooms, including one en suite bathroom. There is an additional shower room off the main stairs. A secondary staircase rises to the extensive attic level, which offers considerable potential for further accommodation, subject to obtaining the appropriate consents. It previously housed two bedrooms and a bathroom.
Outside, the mature gardens are a particular highlight. Principally south and east facing, they feature expansive lawns interspersed with a wonderful collection of established trees and shrubs, including cedar, Scots pine, American plane and spectacular rhododendrons. A former tennis court is situated within the upper lawn area and offers the possibility of reinstatement. In all, the grounds extend to about 1.5 acres.
When I first arrived at Pwll Court, what immediately struck me was the wonderful sense of tranquillity. The approach, the mature gardens and the beautiful Regency proportions combine to create a house with tremendous presence, yet it remains warm, welcoming and comfortable.
