Cwmamliw is a striking country home with approximately 7 acres of land, set in a peaceful rural position yet lying roughly equidistant between Builth Wells and Llandrindod Wells. Perfectly placed for everyday conveniences while enjoying the tranquillity of the countryside, it offers the space, setting, and lifestyle so many buyers dream of. With stables and a hay barn situated within close proximity to the house, it also presents an excellent equestrian opportunity. The property has been thoughtfully extended by the current owners, and the heart of the home is undoubtedly the stunning reception room added as part of this. Wrapping around the house with extensive glazing, it showcases panoramic views across gardens, fields, and rolling hills. Bright and airy in summer yet wonderfully cosy in winter, thanks to a woodburning stove tucked in the corner, it is a room designed for gathering, entertaining, or simply soaking up the scenery. At its centre, the home retains its farmhouse character, with a spacious kitchen fitted with ample units, a central island, and a Belling range-style cooker, creating a warm and sociable hub. The kitchen flows effortlessly into the reception extension, as well as a series of other practical ground-floor spaces, including a utility room, shower room, and a large double bedroom with walk-in dressing room – perfect for guests or multigenerational living. A rear entrance hall with storeroom provides a practical everyday link to the outdoors. Upstairs, there are two further double bedrooms and a generous single, many of which enjoy wonderful far-reaching views over the surrounding countryside – a beautiful outlook to wake up to. A compact office makes home working easy, while a family bathroom with both bath and separate shower completes the first floor. Beyond the house, a collection of traditional stone barns and useful outbuildings add versatility. One barn, which already benefits from planning permission for conversion (Powys County Council, Ref: 18/0448/FUL), has been partially converted to provide a generous ground-floor space currently used as storage, with an upstairs element ready to become a bedroom or elevated reception area enjoying the views. At the top of the privately owned lane leading to the property, a large area of hardstanding sits directly outside the house, flanked by numerous practical outbuildings including four large 12ft x 12ft stables, an open barn with garage area, a hay store, and log storage. Further down the track, additional facilities include a large sheep shed and two further stables, offering excellent scope for equestrian or smallholding use. The house itself is surrounded by mature gardens featuring a productive orchard, vegetable patch, and chicken pen, alongside lawns and a raised decked seating area perfectly positioned to capture the views. A meandering stream runs through the woodland beyond, and the land is naturally stream-fed. In total, the grounds extend to approximately 7 acres, divided into fields, paddocks, and gardens – perfectly suited to equestrian use, hobby farming, or simply the joy of space, privacy, and connection with nature. The property benefits from oil-fired central heating, a private spring water supply, and septic tank drainage, all in keeping with its rural setting.

Situated in the picturesque Wye Valley and close to the breath-taking Elan Valley at Rhayader, the area is a haven for lovers of the outdoors. Riverside walks, rolling Mid Wales countryside, and the renowned Red Kite Feeding Centre at Gigrin Farm are all within easy reach, making this a location that combines natural beauty with everyday convenience.
