Description: The property is a typical, traditional Welsh family 126 acre
stock rearing farm, having previously had a mixed regime of Dairy/Beef/Sheep,
with the land capable of growing all year grass crops and part is suited for
arable cropping also. Some 109 acres can be classed as grazable and balance
down to woods, track, homestead etc.
The outbuildings comprise of sizable derelict stone/slate 2 storey range (roof
fallen in) and other more modern ranges suited for livestock/fodder/machinery
housing.
The character stone/slate two storey house is of generous proportions and was
erected circa 1842 according to the date tablet insert on the front wall. The
property was the home farm to the former Beddgeraint Estate, which has been
defunct for a considerable period of time. The house does require various
upgrading works since it was last renovated in the late 1980’s we understand,
and of course time has progressed since then. The house is set at the head of
the yard, with hardcore parking area to its fore and sides.

Externally:
Concrete based entrance lane leading off the minor district road down to the
homestead, with the house on one side and hardcore/grassed parking areas to
both sides and small walled courtyard to its fore, with pedestrian path to the
front door. To the rear is a grassed area, with plastic central heating oil
tank, set on a former trailer chassis. To the front of the house is a part
hardcore/concrete yard area, which gives access off to the various ranges of
outbuildings.
Please note that a bridleway, which is often used, comes down the entrance
lane and goes down to join up with the track leading out to the neighbouring
property of Cefnmaes Mawr. We note that a footpath also goes up through the
woodland lying due north of the homestead and exits onto the minor district
road. ( We cannot verify whether the footpath is used or not ).
The Outbuildings are set out in various ranges and comprise as follows:
South eastern aspect range: 45’ x 20’ concrete block and corrugated iron half
round roof machinery shed/workshop with doors to both ends. 50’’ x 18’ stone
/block machinery store/loose housing shed with steel main entrance door and
UPVC pedestrian door. Adjoining on one end is a lean to 20’ x 18’ block/stone
and corrugated iron roof workshop with 2 double power points, workbench and
concrete floor.
Set in the bounding field is a brick former small abattoir building, suited as
an isolation pen/stable. Access from this area to the small river and crossing
over to the track out to Cefnmaes Mawr and access to the northern block of
woodland, with the rights of way as previously noted.
South/south western aspect ranges: 87’ x 18’ stone/part block 2 storey mainly
derelict cowshed/stable range with the majority of the slate roof having
collapsed into the building, with the southern end of part block construction
under an asbestos roof still in situ. (Subject to structural survey and
planning consents, this building could provide potential for conversion to say
holiday let unit/s or annexe. ) Lean to 10’ wide structure to the rear of this
range. Adjoining to the fore is a brick dairy 15’ x 15’.
Concrete yard dividing this range away from the main modern ranges being:
Block built 2 storey 38’ x 15’ former milking parlour (now used as loose box)
room, tank room and loft above. Adjoining engine room. Associated collecting
and dispersal yard areas.
4 bay stock frame and concrete block wall with fibre concrete roof cubicle
shed for 58 head with 2 scraping passages. Adjoining one side and accessed
from a grass paddock and from the one end of the yard is a corrugated iron
clad and block wall sides machinery shed 60’ x 22’ with earth floor. Adjoining
on the other side of the cubicle shed is a 75’ x 36’ steel framed and block
wall silo, under a corrugated iron roof, further adjoining 4 bay Dutch barn
with lean to on front aspect width and further lean to’s of 20’ wide loose
housing shed with concrete trough and further cubicle shed for 30 head.
Lying along the rear of these ranges is a concrete exercise/feeding yard area
with block wall boundary, with centrally located fixed fodder feeder with
crash barrier sides and 2 scraping hatches to lower level part concrete and
part earth wall slurry store (not currently emptied) with gateway from the
bounding field for drive in access at the far end of the store. Sloping
concrete scraping lip to one end of this yard (for access to tip into a
rotaspreader if desired)). Concrete water trough set within the yard’s
boundary wall. Gateways on both ends of the yard to access bounding fields.
The Land surrounds the homestead as well as a separate block on the other side
of the minor district road. Total acreage is some 126 acres or thereabouts,
including the separate block of 27. 39 acres.
The blocks are described as follows:
A. ) The separate block of 27. 39 acres is divided into 2 large enclosures and
two smaller enclosures being level to part sloping on the western aspect. Ring
boundary fenced for sheep and mains water supply crossing over from the
homestead block. Three fields have been reseeded in 2021 and are in good
heart.
B. ) 3 fields due north of the entrance lane and due west of the woodland –
29. 18 acres approx. This block is level to part sloping on the southern
boundary, but are suited for cropping and in general good heart. Ring boundary
fenced for sheep and gateways off the district road. Field no. 9665 has a
fenced off hardcore area previously used for storage of bales etc. Field No
0793 was last used for an arable crop.
C. ) Block due east of the homestead, beyond the river Ceri. This block totals
to some 18 acres divided into three main fields and within that some 4. 33
acres is classed as wood and track. The three fields are gently undulating in
nature and wettish in some places and ideally suited for grazing purposes
only. Two of the fields have direct access off the track leading towards Cefn
Maes Mawr. Boundary fencing would need some attention – possibly more fenced
towards cattle than sheep at present.
D. ) Block due south and west of the homestead and wooded area due north of the
homestead.
This area as a whole, totals to some 54 acres or thereabouts, of which some
14. 31 acres is classed as wood/homestead/track etc. The pasture fields are a
mixture of level to gently sloping levels, running down to meet a small river,
Afon Dulais, going through the centre of the block where areas of wood also
congregate. Part of the river has been fenced off. The fields would lend
themselves more for grazing than cropping, as there are naturally wettish
areas evident. The block of sloping mature woodland runs up behind the house
up towards the plot of a derelict cottage and bounds on its eastern aspect
with a small river for part of its length. (The cottage will be available for
sale at a later date, as a separate entity).
Iacs: The holding is registered – prospective purchasers to satisfy themselves
of eligibility for future registration purposes. Some 44. 45 bps entitlements
would be optionally available to purchase by separate negotiation.
