3 Bedroom Detached House

A modern country home based on a traditional Welsh long house. Built in 2011, using natural materials and with excellent insulation, this detached property offers warmth in winter, cool in summer, character and efficiency in equal measure. Set within a small and friendly development of individually designed homes, it enjoys a peaceful village setting surrounded by outstanding countryside.

The Property - This thoughtfully designed home forms part of Clun Cwrt, a small collection of unique houses created by a respected local architect-builder. Drawing inspiration from traditional Welsh long houses the property blends timeless rural character with modern comfort and efficiency.

The front door opens into a entrance hall, leading through to a bright and sociable open-plan kitchen and dining space. The kitchen is fitted with modern units, integrated appliances and a beech wood worktop while the dining area enjoys a light, garden-facing aspect. French doors open directly onto a covered, decked verandah creating a seamless connection between indoors and out. Flowing from the kitchen is the sitting room/snug, where a wood-burning stove forms a warm and inviting focal point
