A truly unique home in a hidden setting. This will be the longest home we have had the pleasure to work with in our time as an agency. It offers so much potential as an incredible family home, or investment given the current Airbnb income from the annexe.Our comments
This has family home for over 27 years. We have loved evrey second of it from the beauty of its secluded nature to walks around the nearby lake. We really hope the next home owners enjoys it just as much as we have. We have been proud to maintain one of the longest homes in Wales.Owners' comments
