About this property
Detached five-bedroom home just outside village of Laugharne.
Approximately 24 acres of pasture leading down to the river.
Ample parking, secure access to land, and double garage.
Potential for annex use for family or as a holiday let.
Situated in Cross Inn, just outside the ever-popular village of Laugharne, sits this impressive five-bedroom detached property. Dolau Taf was built for its current owners and is presented for sale in excellent condition. This warm and welcoming property also has a surprise for any visitor; approximately twenty-four acres of ground that lie to the rear of the home and run downhill to the River Taf. Currently let out for grazing, an arrangement that could continue for a buyer, these well-drained fields offer superb views of the valley and include a wonderful, sheltered area of woodland at the bottom. For an owner with an equestrian interest, this land and the stabling currently in place would be ideal.
In addition to the accommodation on offer in the main home, there are also rooms above the double garage, perfect for extended family or short-term letting. Dolau Taf is also very well positioned for easy access to the A40, allowing for convenient travel to the Pembrokeshire coastline to the west and the M4 corridor to the east. This impressive home truly offers something for every buyer.
Entering the home from the large driveway, you arrive in the double-height entrance hall. This impressive space offers a great introduction to the home and has the principal rooms on this level opening off it. To your right, you find a formal dining room (or additional reception space/ground floor bedroom), with the main sitting room behind it, which enjoys double doors out to the rear gardens. There is also a cloakroom and storage cupboard opening off the entrance hall, with the staircase to the galleried landing rising to the first floor. There is also a door to the lovely kitchen, which offers a great space for the owners and their guests to gather around the large central island. Opening off the kitchen, you find a fabulous double-height family room that looks out over the gardens through an entirely glazed end wall. Also, off the kitchen, you find a handy boot room, ground floor shower room, and a flexible home office. A door from the office leads into a large plant room, which in turn has a door into the spacious double garage.
On the first floor of the home, you find four double bedrooms, two of which benefit from ensuite shower rooms (with plumbing in place for a third), along with the large family bathroom. The bedrooms all enjoy very pleasant views of the surrounding countryside or gardens. A hatch in the ceiling of the landing leads up to the very large loft space, which has been fully lined and has windows looking out to the nearby coast. This space could easily provide one or two further bedrooms to the home, or studio space if required. Above the double garage, and with its own access to the side, you find another bedroom along with a living space and kitchenette. This part of the property would be ideal for a multigenerational purchaser or could be used as short-term rental accommodation, subject to any relevant planning.
To the rear of Dolau Taf, you find the formal gardens, which comprise a level, well-kept lawn that leads to a summer house at the far end. Beyond this, you find a productive vegetable garden, with a gate then leading into the fields to the rear. Two large, fenced fields provide excellent grazing, with two further paddocks beyond them leading down to the riverside. These two lower paddocks are ringed with mature trees and make for a wonderful haven for wildlife, providing the owners with hours of enjoyment in this sheltered, private oasis. For those looking for a well-positioned and very well-presented property, with immediate access to one of Carmarthenshire's most famous destinations, Laugharne, Dolau Taf is a wonderful find. When combined with the excellent backdrop of the hugely flexible land that is included with the sale, this wonderful family home is a fabulous proposition.
