2 bed detached house for sale

Rhydowen, Llandysul SA44

*no onward chain*Looking for a home with plenty of outdoor space, useful outbuildings, and a layout that works well for day-to-day life? This place brings together generous gardens, a studio, a workshop, lots of parking and a separate paddock, all on the edge of Rhydowen near Llandysul and Lampeter.

Set just on the edge of Rhydowen, this house sits in grounds measuring around 0.3 of an acre, with an additional paddock of roughly 0.4 of an acre located a short distance down the road. The property has a practical feel from the moment the entrance gates open, leading to an area designed to take plenty of vehicles with ease. A mix of hard-standing and a tarmacked section makes manoeuvring simple, while still leaving lots of room for day-to-day parking needs, visiting guests, or space for those who rely on trailers, vans or similar.

The side hallway forms the main access point into the home. This space links the practical side of the property with the main living areas, which suits the layout well. Immediately to the left sits the utility room, fitted with a w/c, sink, and the boiler, along with plumbing and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. A worktop above keeps things usable and tidy, making it easy to keep laundry and household tasks contained away from the central living areas. This room becomes one of those spaces that proves its worth over time, especially for those who value straightforward organisation.

From the hallway, the dining room sits to the right. This room connects the ground-floor layout nicely, acting as a hub between the lounge, the kitchen, and the staircase. At the end of the hall, straight ahead, is the kitchen itself.

Continued;

The kitchen has a selection of base and wall units, designed to offer enough storage without feeling cramped. An eye-level electric oven and electric hob make cooking simple, and the one-and-a-half sink and drainer sit well within the worktop arrangement. Space for an under-counter fridge keeps the layout efficient and easy to navigate. The kitchen’s position between the dining room and the lounge gives it a practical flow, especially for anyone who enjoys keeping everything close together rather than spread across distant rooms.

Passing through the kitchen leads into the lounge, where a log burner set within a mantel and on a slate hearth forms the focal point. The burner adds a calm, grounded feel to the room, giving it a steady warmth during colder months. An under-stairs cupboard provides an extra storage area, always handy for keeping everyday items out of sight. The lounge connects back to the dining room through another doorway, creating an easy circuit through the downstairs space. The dining room also has the front door and direct access to the staircase, making it a natural meeting point between the different elements of the ground floor.

Heading upstairs, the landing links together two bedrooms, a dressing room or storage room, and the family bathroom. The landing also has a walk-in dressing room/storage cupboard, offering more space to keep things organised. The master bedroom is a double, and the built-in cupboard adds useful storage without taking up floor area. The second bedroom is a generous single, shaped in a way that makes furniture placement straightforward. With a bit of thought, it could serve equally well as a bedroom, home office, hobby room or similar.

The bathroom sits off the landing and includes a bath with an electric shower over it, along with a w/c and sink. Straightforward and easy to maintain, the room covers day-to-day requirements with no fuss.

Externally:

Outside, the property offers a series of outbuildings and outdoor features that add real breadth to what the home provides. In addition to the significant parking area, there is a separate studio building, along with a workshop and a roomy garage/storage structure. For those with projects, hobbies, or outdoor equipment, these buildings create a wide range of possibilities. There is also an open store room with enough space for a caravan, adding an extra layer of flexibility rarely found at this price point or location.

The gardens sit mainly to the rear and have been shaped thoughtfully over time. The space includes fruit trees, raised beds and terraced areas, giving the outdoor environment character and purpose without being overly demanding. A patio area behind the house makes a good spot for sitting out, whether for meals, coffee or simply taking a breather. A greenhouse and a summer house sit within the garden too, offering extra room for gardening, storage or small-scale leisure uses. Pathways and steps run through the different levels of the garden, linking the various sections in a practical way and making each area easy to reach.

The additional paddock, located down the road from the main house, extends the property’s usefulness even further. With a stream running along one boundary, the paddock offers open ground that could fit a number of purposes. Whether for keeping some animals, growing on a bigger scale, exercising dogs, or simply having extra outdoor space separate from the main plot, the paddock adds a valuable dimension.

Overall, this property brings together comfortable living spaces, strong outdoor potential, and a location that offers access to two well-known towns while still keeping a sense of openness. For anyone who prefers a home that feels practical, steady and full of possibilities rather than overly styled or staged, this place has a lot to offer. It provides a foundation that can be shaped over time but also works well just as it is, with space for vehicles, tools, hobbies, relaxation and more.
