Wye View – A Characterful Railway Cottage in Builth Road
Situated in the peaceful hamlet of Builth Road, this late 19th century railway cottage blends local history with modern convenience. The area was once a busy hub on the Mid Wales Line, and while the pace of life has slowed, the setting now offers a quiet retreat with far-reaching views across rolling countryside.
The accommodation is deceptively spacious and thoughtfully arranged. On the ground floor, a welcoming reception room to the front sets the tone, offering an inviting space for relaxation or entertaining. A second reception room to the rear provides further versatility and features a useful understairs storage cupboard. The modern fitted kitchen lies beyond, well designed with ample units and workspace, and leading into a practical utility lobby with space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble drier. From here, the ground floor family bathroom is easily accessed, providing a convenient and functional arrangement.
Upstairs, three bedrooms provide comfortable and flexible living. The master bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, adding a touch of practicality and privacy, while the remaining two bedrooms offer further options for family, guests, or a home office. The layout makes excellent use of the space available, with each room enjoying natural light and a pleasant outlook.
Outside, the cottage enjoys a private courtyard garden to the rear, ideal for outdoor dining or quiet moments of relaxation. Directly across the well-presented, recently resurfaced council-adopted cul-de-sac is a detached garage with its own electricity meter and a larger lawned garden, offering further outdoor space for gardening, entertaining, or simply enjoying the sunshine. Unrestricted parking is also available directly outside the property, adding further convenience.
