Summary
Available on the open market for the first time in over sixty years is this remarkable property moments from the stunning Poppit Sands Beach. Tucked away in the heart of approximately seventeen acres of its own land, this impressive property enjoys a wonderful sense or privacy and a superb, south facing outlook. The main property is a three bedroom traditional farmhouse, with the benefit of a self-contained, one bedroom, annex. In addition to this main accommodation you find another converted stone building, currently used as a hairdressing studio, but with potential for residential use subject to planning. There is also a detached stone building which has planning, and work started, to create a four/five bedroom holiday unit, along with a range of unconverted stone buildings. For someone looking for either a multi-generational family estate, or letting units, Cippyn Fawr could be the ideal property.
Entering the main property, you arrive in a welcoming living space which has a large hearth and wood burning stove to one end, and a feature fireplace to the other. This space contains the staircase up to the first floor and has two opening in the rear wall leading into the kitchen. The well equipped kitchen runs along the rear of the property and also opens to a conservatory at the back of the home. Completing the accommodation on this level is ground floor shower room and a handy utility, which has an internal door leading into the annex. The staircase up to the first floor leads you to a good sized landing and two double ensuite bedrooms, with a third single bedroom at the rear of this level.
The annex can either be accessed internally from the main home, or via its own front door. Entering the space, you arrive in a central hallway which has a door to bedroom on your right and leads into the well-presented galley kitchen in front of you. The kitchen offers a great space and leads you through to the large living area which has room for both seating and dining areas and has a wood burning stove as a focal point. A doorway takes you through to the spacious sunroom, which enjoys lovely views out over the garden. A door from the living room takes you into the good sized bathroom, with the double bedroom and its attached dressing room completing the accommodation in the annex.
To the side of the main house, you find a row of unconverted stone outbuildings, offering a huge range of option for either extending the main home or, subject to planning, adding additional residential properties to the site. Next door to these stone buildings you find the converted studio space, which is currently used as a hair dressing studio, but has huge potential as a residential unit. The studio offers a double height main space with kitchenette area, along with a mezzanine level above, along with a shower room and storage room next door.
There is also another stone building below the main house, which has planning permission to be converted into a holiday unit, with work on that conversion already started.
The land at Cippyn Fawr offers almost as many options as the buildings on it. Extending to approximately seventeen acres in total the land is mixed between pasture, woodland and gardens and offers a wonderful space to enjoy. Ideal for grazing, horses or for a smallholding the land already boasts superb fruit and vegetable growing area in this well drained, south facing position. In addition to the stone outbuildings there is also a very sizable steel framed barn offering excellent storage for machinery.
Surrounding the property is stunning coastline, and some of the most pristine parts of the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path. The beautiful Poppits Sands offers a playground to young and old and is within walking distance of the property.
