Exciting country property with a stylish modern barn conversion and traditional farmhouse ripe for renovation. All set in about 5.9 acres.

Description

Dol Y Frenni is an exciting country property set in a pretty idyllic rural position. It comprises a superb and stylish barn conversion that was completed in 2022/23 and a traditional old farmhouse that is thought to date c.1820-1850. The barn offers impressive accommodation space together with energy efficiency (EPC rating B) with air source heating and solar panels on the roof. The old farmhouse offers generous living accommodation and was configured to provide an annexe area in the past. This house has been vacant for a number of years and is now ripe for renovation. It offers the opportunity for a home for an extended family or for owner occupiers to use one property and let out the other for income.
