About this property

  • Ty'n Y Llwyn, with its blend of historical significance and breathtaking vistas, offers a unique glimpse into the heritage and natural beauty of the Grwyne Fawr valley.

    A Grade II* listed farmhouse located in the picturesque Black Mountains of Wales in the Brecon Beacons National Park. The house is a fine example of traditional Welsh architecture, dating originally to the late 16th Century .

    With walls of lime washed rubble stone striking out against the grove, it features a cruciform layout, characteristic gabled ends and diamond-shaped chimney stacks. Built on a commanding position with southern valley views, several outbuildings and exceptional grounds of varying gradients, the house has seen sensitive modifications but retains much of its rich history and architectural integrity.

    Entering now into a modern conversion of what was once the dairy, the kitchen and adjacent utility / wc show most of the alterations that have been undertaken. The parlour living room, previously only a byre and loft, was extended in 1649. The external chimney bears this date and an enchanting carved beam above a wood burning stove is a welcoming focal point. Original wood beams continue throughout, alongside wide board doors and primarily flagstone floors. There is a second smaller reception, or snug, along the old cross passage, which leads back outside to the topiary terrace.

    Stepping into the hall is almost like heading back in time with a stone spiral stair tucked behind the range leading to the first floor. Opposite is a full wooden screen wall leading to a small study and store. The first floor landing splits to the downhill side of the house where the spacious principal bedroom enjoys the southern views, alongside a guest bedroom, both with original fireplaces, and a family bathroom.

    Occupying the other aspect of the cruciform is a petite en suite bedroom and a sizeable further bedroom above the old hall, where steps lead up to a fantastic library amongst trusses in the attic: ideal additional accommodation or a hideaway for leisurely pursuits. While this attic space has been converted for an inviting refuge, the front sections remains unconverted.

    There are a wealth of characterful features throughout, including split pane windows and secondary internal glazing alongside original mullions the camber of floors, stone nooks, exposed wood, and mottled walls are impressively preserved.

    The hillside is bespeckled with old farm buildings and the majority are Grade II listed, including the cider press, grain-drying kiln , assorted animal cots, beast house and threshing barn.

    The Old Stable has been thoughtfully converted into a two bedroom holiday cottage, its inverted layout benefitting from rugged stone walls and exposed beams in the kitchen / living area.

    A sizeable modern agricultural steel-frame shed sits along the approaching drive, affording livestock and farming potential use un-impacted by a listed status. The roofline on the southern aspect has the benefit of solar panels.

An absolute gem of a historic home with income and a beautiful, peaceful setting.
