A former gamekeeper’s cottage on the historic Cyfronydd Hall estate near Welshpool which has stunning countryside views of the Banwy Valley is up for sale for £650,000.

The three-bedroom oak-framed bungalow called Tan-y-Boncyn, located near the hall that is now owned by former Conservative Party leader Lord Hague, was virtually rebuilt by its owners seven years ago.

Rob Hudson, from estate agents Morris, Marshall and Poole with Norman Lloyd (MMP/NL), said the property was ideally suited for someone wanting to enjoy the Montgomeryshire countryside.

“Many people are seeking homes in rural areas where they can live and work following the pandemic. The property provides space, plenty of gardens and access to walk and the countryside.

“It has a magnificent sun, living and dining room in one with open views through a large, glazed surround. The room has a wood burning stove as a main feature together with oak flooring and air conditioning. But it’s the views over the adjoining countryside to the hills beyond that really sets this property apart,” he said.

“The kitchen has granite work surfaces and includes an electric range cooker, American style fridge/freezer and dishwasher. The sitting room also benefits from a wood stove set into a recess.”

The property, which is on the market through MMP/NL for £650,000, includes three well-sized bedrooms and a utility room.

There is also a three-bay steel frame building complete with electric, lighting and sliding doors that could be utilised for a range of uses. The grounds include a small amenity woodland and grass paddocked areas, reaching for around 3.9 acres.
