Frongôg Farm is reached via a tree-lined lane shared with seven other homes. The golden flint gravel driveway provides parking for several vehicles and is bordered by colourful and fragrant plants. A five-bar gate leads into the front garden with stunning views across the Rheidol Valley. The farmhouse has two main entrances: through the conservatory or via a stable door into the boot room.

The conservatory, with full-height windows and a glazed roof, is a bright space to enjoy morning coffee, birdsong and a place for coats and boots. It provides an all-weather area to appreciate the countryside. A substantial oak door opens into the hallway, with patio doors to the snug. The central staircase rises to the first floor, with doors to two reception rooms. The lounge features an original inglenook fireplace with log burner and a preserved bread oven. French doors open onto the front patio with views of the gardens and surrounding hills, and another window looks over the side garden.

The snug has an open fireplace with a gas fire for instant warmth, and a door leads to the dining room. Oak flooring, an exposed stone wall and original beams create a cosy country feel. French doors connect to the patio, and low slate steps lead to the kitchen. The farmhouse kitchen combines rustic character and practicality, with slate flooring, a new electric AGA, Belfast sink, integrated appliances and a repurposed island. The AGA is set into an inglenook with two original bread ovens. A pantry cupboard completes the room, and a glass-panelled door opens to the rear courtyard.

The rear hallway includes built-in storage, two windows and a staircase, with doors to the lounge and store room. The tiled store room and adjoining WC add useful convenience. The boot room, accessed via a stable door, links to the kitchen, barn conversion and utility room, and features quarry tiles, exposed beams and stone walls. The utility houses the oil-fired boiler, fuse board, electric meter, washing machine plumbing, space for appliances and access to the courtyard.

The front landing has exposed beams and leads to the bedrooms. The master bedroom is spacious and light, with a full-length window framing views of the Rheidol Valley and Cambrian Mountains. Steps lead down to the en‑suite, which features an oak floor, freestanding cast-iron bath, walk-in shower, basin, radiator, towel rail, exposed beams and Velux windows. The second bedroom is a single room with valley views and is used as an office.

The back landing has a fitted bookcase and a Velux window. Another front-facing bedroom is bright and includes exposed A‑frame beams, built‑in storage and an en‑suite with walk‑in shower, basin and WC. A fourth bedroom has built-in storage and a rear-facing window, while the fifth double bedroom has two rear-courtyard windows and a storage cupboard.

The attached barn conversion includes a kitchen/living area with exposed stone walls, log burner on a slate hearth, slate floor with electric underfloor heating, fitted units, built‑in appliances and windows to the front and rear. A cast‑iron spiral staircase leads to the first floor, currently a games room with oak flooring, exposed beams and custom roof windows. Its bathroom includes oak flooring, a walk‑in shower, freestanding jacuzzi bath, basin, WC, towel radiator and Velux window. Once part of the original stone barn, the attached workshop is a generous and versatile space with electricity, exposed stone walls, cobble floor and ventilation openings.

Outside

The grounds extend to around five acres of Welsh countryside, including a paved patio for outdoor dining, a manicured front lawn with rotating summer house, mature fruit trees, flowering plants and a vegetable patch. A five-bar gate leads to two fenced paddocks with wildflowers and mature trees such as sweet chestnut, white beam and lime. A mown path leads to a picturesque pond with yellow iris and pink water lilies, surrounded by wildlife, natural woodland and seasonal displays of snowdrops, daffodils and bluebells.
