SELLER INSIGHT
We have had the good fortune of owning the property since 2021. Upon first glance, the character of this home captured our hearts. Despite its size it envelopes those fortunate enough to reside in it with a sense of cosiness and ‘Cwtch’ as we say here is Wales. More than enough space to accommodat e a large family but equally suitable for housing various family dynamics and a menage rie of pets.
This property is a real memory maker. It commands that you enter, unwin d and relax nestled safely in the heart of the countryside with your loved ones. Its asks that you embrace the life that comes and goes with the seasons and that you welcome the ever changing beauty Mother Nature provides as you enjoy the grounds, gardens and woodland to call your own.
It truly is an oasis the moment you enter the lane and ascend to what is yours, a home which is private, peaceful and one which always welcomes you back in its safe embrace. A retreat, a sanctuary and a haven brimming with wildlife.
In our opinion this home is so much more than just a house…it is a lifestyle. Should you immerse yourself in it you will be gifted the full potential of what it is to li ve at ‘The Rhallt.’
Our little one has amassed quite a collection for his bug box which he has had endless fun discovering. The views here change almost daily and watching t he weather roll in across the Severn Valley is such a sight and not to mention, a privilege. Dawn’s chorus brings many a bird song as does twilight when the y’re returning to roost. It is a home which beckons for you to enjoy as much of what it contains within as much as what it lies amongst the hills and surrounding areas.
It saddens us to leave this to another but this home with forever remain in our hearts for all that it encapsulates.
Each and every one of our neighbours are a delight and there is always a sense that you call upon them should you need to without fear of intrusion or compromising privacy while each having our own space.

SELLER INSIGHT
The location is fantastic as it sits between several neighbouring villages, to wns and slightly further afield, larger cities. The commute to Liverpool door to doo r which we often undertake is 90 minutes. Trips to the coast can be made in approx imately the same time. The beauty of having the vast Welsh landscape to explore i s also a real privilege and one not to be forgotten.
To raise children here ensures they’re exposed to the wonderment and curi osity of nature and wildlife. We have always felt our darling boy is safe and can en joy the outdoors in ways inner city life does not allow.
Many folk have been able to claim this house as their own due to the age of the property and so with each owner a little more is added but never diminish ed. You feel the history of the property once you’re in it.
Our plans to expand upon that which is already here is considerable whilst being sympathetic to the setting and environment. Unfortunately, the necessity to find pastures new is required for us but this home we adore.
There are so many elements to this property to enjoy and so it is very hard to select a particular place/space as we’re sure you’ll agree once visiting to ru le out as special but just give you an indication of what you can expect:
• Winter evenings tucked up in front of the fire in the lounge is a favourite.
• Summer evenings spent relaxing on the patio is a must.
• The stillness of the master suite and woodlands for a backdrop is heavenly for a restful night’s sleep.
• The gardens, the terrace, the pond and field all ask that you enjoy them. That we have and no double you will too.
In summary- The Rhallt is serenely soothing and nurturing to all. An absolute haven for the right people/family to enjoy!”*
LEISURE
Descending into the basement, you’ll find a fantastic area for relaxation a nd fitness. Currently set up as a gym, there is ample space for equipment and storage. The boot room, with a tiled floor and storage cupboards, offers a great place to accommodate all manner of clothing apparel for the great outdoors. Adjacent to this, a steam room and utility room, complete with a WC, wash basin, and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, provide convenience. There’s also a jacuzzi room with doors leading out to the patio, making this space ideal for hosting or unwinding. This level is perfectly designed for health and wellness, with plans already drawn up by the current owners for an extension that would include a swimming pool. Alternatively, it could be converted into additional living accommodation if desired and subject to the relevant consents.
OUTSIDE
Set within approximately 10 acres of beautifully maintained gardens and grounds, this property offers something for everyone. Accessed via a country lane, the driveway sweeps up in front of the house and leads down to the triple garage, providing ample parking and turning space.
The 5-acre and 2-acre paddocks offer plenty of room for animals or equestrian activities. The remaining grounds feature manicured lawns, multiple paved seating areas, an orchard with a variety of fruit trees, and a serene pond, combining privacy, tranquility, and natural beauty.
There are several outbuildings on the property, the most notable being the detached two-storey triple garage. The current ground floor layout provides generous double garage space with a small kitchen area, wc, store room and an internal staircase rising to a spacious studio with a balcony which is currently used as a home office.
This space offers fantastic potential for a variety of uses with planning consent already approved for conversion into an annex, perfect for extended family or creating an income with holiday accommodation.
The beautiful summer house central to the gardens is currently used for gardening but again the current owners have approved planning consent for this space to be converted into a home office.
Extension Plans: The current owners have approved planning consent for an impressive two-storey extension to further enhance this magnificent home. The proposed extension to the side would expand the existing kitchen, creating a spacious kitchen and dining area with large bifold doors that open onto the outdoor alfresco decking area. Additionally, the basement aquatic area would be extended to include a luxurious sunken resistance swimming pool. This addition would provide a unique level for fitness enthusiasts and those seeking luxury and relaxation.
