The farmhouse itself is thought to date from the 16th Century but has been the subject of a comprehensive and stylish refurbishment and modernisation in very recent times so that it now combines the original character of the building with modern standards of appointment and finish. Briefly the accommodation comprises splendid drawing room, sitting room, fantastic kitchen/breakfast room with amazing views, utility room, cloakroom, four bedrooms and three bathrooms. scroft (one bedroom) is attached to the main farmhouse as is Meadowcroft (three bedrooms) so scope to create one very large property. Pennycroft and Sunnycroft are a pair of semi-detached cottages which between them have three bedrooms but do have planning permission for them to be combined to form a single dwelling. Lots of options here for purchasers individual requirements. The whole property stands in something over two acres of gardens and grounds. The formal gardens around the farmhouse and cottages have been very cleverly laid out and are delightfully mature and provide a wonderful choice of sitting areas and dining terraces so that each individual property can sit and enjoy the views with privacy. This is a tiny hilltop hamlet at the end of a no-through road with just three houses, historic St Ceins Church and country inn. Local facilities are just a short drive away at either Blackmill or Llangeinor. Easy access to junction 36 of the M4 makes for easy commuting to major centres including the capital city of Cardiff, Swansea, Newport, Port Talbot, Llantrisant, etc.
