Property Details

A superbly situated upland farm with over 200 acres of productive pastureland accompanied with associated hill grazing rights. The property enjoys the most breathtaking of views looking towards the Brecon Beacons and due to its south easterly aspect, benefits from the morning sun. The property comprises a substantial 4 bedroom farmhouse that is accessed from its own private drive and is surrounded by garden. The farmstead also comprises an excellent range of modern portal frame buildings that currently support the main sheep enterprise on the farm.

The property is situated in the idyllic Cilienni valley, approximately 1 mile north of the hamlet of Pentre Felin and 3 miles north of the village of Sennybridge, in a tranquil rural position. The farm is only a stone’s throw from the locally well-known “Shoe-Makers Tavern”. Sennybridge is well serviced and offers a range of facilities to include village shop & post office, 2 filling stations and garage, public house and agricultural feed merchants. From here the A40 gives fast access east and the A4067 south to Swansea. Brecon is a further 8 miles away with a host of social and shopping facilities.

THE LAND
The land comprises approximately 200 acres of pasture and extends in a north westerly direction, rising from 230m to almost 330m above sea level. The land is separated into conveniently sized and well maintained enclosures and offers the most stunning and panoramic views from some of the highest points. The land is well suited to sheep and cattle grazing, and the current owners readily produce a good root crop from the land in rotation.

SCHEDULE OF ACREAGE
The farmland borders the Cilenni River along part of its eastern boundary and there is a sound water supply, which rises on the farm and serves strategically placed water tanks. The bore hole system could be extended if required.
