3 Bed Land - Small Holding
Babel, Llandovery
Offers in the region of £700,000
Looking for a characterful country property with no onward chain, no close neighbours, a real flexibility, useful outbuildings, around 8.42 acres and striking far-reaching views within the Bannau Brycheiniog National Park? This well-presented stone barn conversion comes with a detached Hobby/Playroom barn, and a substantial garage/workshop barn with potential for holiday let use subject to the necessary permissions, solar panels and private bore hole water for semi off-grid living, and a setting that feels properly rural while still keeping Llandovery and the A40 within easy reach.
Set within the borders of the Bannau Brycheiniog National Park, this beautifully presented late 18th century stone barn conversion offers a very appealing mix of character, space and versatility. With around 8.42 acres, a detached Hobby/Playroom barn, a substantial garage/workshop barn, an electric car charging point and glorious views stretching across the surrounding countryside, this is the sort of property that feels particularly hard to replace. It has genuine lifestyle appeal, but it also has practical substance behind it.
The setting is a real part of the story here. Access is from a small country lane onto the property’s own private track, which leads up through a gate and into the grounds. From the moment the barns come into view, the outlook starts to do the work. The position gives a strong sense of space, with open countryside, valley views and distant hills forming the backdrop, while Crychan and Halfway Forests are close by for riding, walking and cycling. Despite the rural feel, the A40 is only around 2 miles away, with Llandovery roughly 4 miles distant.
The main house, converted around 2003 and improved further over the years, has been arranged to make the most of its natural light and its setting. The front door is reached by steps from the patio and opens into a generous hallway with stairs to the first floor, storage below, a WC and a useful utility room.
