SY23 4AX

We are pleased to be able to offer for sale this historic property which once formed part of the nearby Trawscoed (Lord Lisbourne) estate. According to Cadw around 1760 the estate closed down its smaller mills and concentrated production at the new mill at Wenallt. The holding is intersected by a council maintained road which leads to a ford over the river Ystwyth which forms the boundary to this property.

The property is situated 10 miles inland from Aberystwyth towards the upper reaches of the Ystwyth Valley just off the B4340 Aberystwyth to Pontrhydfendigaid road. There are limited local amenities at the surrounding villages to include a primary school and public house. Aberystwyth has a good range of both local and national retailers to cater for the large local and student populations. There is a bus service three times a day into Aberystwyth which stops outside the house.
