  • Description
    -GENERAL DESCRIPTION-
    This grand and impressive detatched property is eminently suitable for the larger family or the entrepreneur looking to benefit from an investment.
    With 9 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms Mount House has the potential to provide a comfortable solution to the accommodation requirements of a good number of people.
    The barn conversion into three bedsits to the rear of the house, meets disabled requirements.

    Situated on the outskirts of the small and ancient town of Newcastle Emlyn, the property is close to all local amenities, shops, school and supermarkets.
    There is a frequent and reliable local bus service.

    The large town Of Carmarthen is about 18 miles away. Here you can join the M4 motorway, or utilise coach and rail access to London and other major cities.

    The area is renowned for its scenic beauty, nestling in the foothills of the Prescelli Mountains. There are waterfalls, castles, ancient burial mounds and various other places of great interest in the vicinity. The coastal town of Cardigan is fifteen minutes drive away, with safe blue flag beaches and stunning panoramic views along the coast of Cardigan bay.

    Part of the house was originally built in 1600. In 1700 it was converted to a two storey building, with the main body of the house as it now is, being built in 1800.
    The present owner has installed UPVC double glazed windows and doors throughout.
    [With the exception of the main entrance double doors, two small georgian windows to the side of the house, and the main landing windows which are 'original'].
    The property has gas fired [propane] central heating throughout, as well as retaining it's original Victorian fireplaces in each of the living/sleeping rooms.

    -EXTERNALLY-
    To the front of the house there is a low wall with iron railngs, mostly obscured by a wealth of shrubs, behind which a small lawned area opens onto a very attractive brick paviour driveway. This runs from the front round to the right of the house, [approx 22m x 3m] and facilitates off road parking for 2-3 vehicles.
    To the right of the driveway is a dividing wall affording privacy from the adjacent house. At the end of the drive is a large stone built garage/workshop.
    Attached to the right of the main house is a two storey annexe with access to the house from both floors.

    To the left of the house is a good sized garden area, replete with an abundance of shrubs, plants and mature trees. There is a 2,000 litre propane gas tank here.
    This area leads down the south facing side of the house where a spacious [4m x 4m] UPVC double glazed conservatory is situate next to an ornamental pond.

    Beyond this a lawn bordered with shrubs continues, terminating in an arbour adjacent to an attractive area of railed decking complete with disabled ramps. This adjoins the end of the converted barn - [see photos]- that is attached to the rear of the main house.
    From here, a private gravelled lane facilitates vehicular access right up to the back door of the main house.
    There is a carport -[7.5m x 4.5m] and turning bay - pigsty/woodshed - cold frame - 8'x6'greenhouse - further lawned area - mature trees and finally a completely private raised and railed 'sun' area of decking at the rear of the main house next to the garage/worshop. Opposite this is an outside toilet attached to the rear of the house.

    -GENERAL INFO-
    This is a hugely interesting and unusual property retaining many of its original features.
    It still has functioning bells to 'summon the servants'- original Victorian fireplaces - many original locks on internal doors - slate flagstone floor and hallway steps - exposed beams in both attic rooms - original 'built in' cupboards - a wealth of unpainted pitch pine stairs, skirting boards, picture and dado rails - [All rooms except bedroom 1 and Attic rooms] - and an original fully functioning 'range' type fireplace with back boiler in the kitchen.

    The house and grounds are in good order, given the age of the property.
    The present owner has done a great deal of work and the 3 bedsit barn conversion is new and virtually 'un-lived in'.
    From the attic bedrooms velux windows, there are spectacular views over the Prescelli Mountains and surrounding area.

    There are currently 10 years of Damp Proof + Woodworm certification remaining.

    Property prices in West Wales are rising fast. Were this property within 100 miles of London it would probably have a £2 million + price tag!

    This house is huge and the photographs don't really do it justice. There is however, a DVD available, giving extensive internal and external coverage.
    We will happily send you one, plus details with full specifications of all internal amenities in each room, if you would care to contact us and request such.
