Tucked away within the beautiful Cwm Rheidol Valley, Y Felin is a truly characterful portion of an ancient mill, occupying a stunning riverside position with direct access to the River Rheidol. Surrounded by nature yet just 15 minutes from the historic university town of Aberystwyth, the property offers a rare balance of tranquillity, character and convenience.
The home has been thoughtfully refurbished and beautifully presented, blending period features with modern comforts. For added peace of mind, a brand new boiler has recently been installed and benefits from a 10-year warranty, ensuring efficient and reliable heating for years to come.
A comfortable sitting room with engineered oak flooring sits alongside a superb garden room — far exceeding the quality of a typical conservatory — with a full-height pitched roof, triple aspect glazing and doors opening onto the garden. From here, the outlook across the valley is simply breathtaking, with views over the river and, on occasion, the Rheidol Steam Railway passing gently through the landscape.
The master bedroom suite enjoys glorious rear-facing river views and is complemented by a walk-in dressing room and a beautifully refitted en-suite featuring Carrara marble units. A further bedroom is located on the upper floor, accessed via a landing featuring an original stained-glass window, a charming reminder of the building’s heritage.
On the lower ground floor, there is highly versatile ancillary accommodation, including a utility/reception space and an additional bedroom with French doors opening onto a rear balcony above the river, ideal for guests or extended family. Practical storage rooms are also located beneath the property.
Outside, Y Felin is approached via a private driveway with excellent parking and benefits from a substantial powered outbuilding. Fully equipped with electricity and Ethernet connectivity linked to the property’s high-speed BT fibre broadband, this versatile space is ideal as a home office, gym, studio or additional storage — perfectly suited to modern lifestyle requirements. The gardens are mainly laid to lawn and offer scope for further landscaping, while the rear deck occupies a show-stopping position above the river, providing an extraordinary setting for outdoor living.
From the rear of the garden, steps lead directly down to the river itself, where the property enjoys private river access together with valuable Riparian (fishing) rights. These rights permit exclusive fishing from the property boundary using legal methods, offering a rare opportunity to enjoy peaceful riverside pursuits from your own grounds.
