An Interesting Read .....

Welcome to Felin Wen and Barn, a very rare example of a well-planned and stunning restoration, a hidden gem with oodles of charm, character and beauty awaits you as you cross over the bridge of the Marlais stream. Felin Wen and the Barn are both Grade 11 listed buildings and have been lovingly restored by the current vendors keeping every bit of character they could but also adding the latest fire-protection misting system to protect in case of fire (we can provide more information for this if requested).
Felin Wen, translated means "White Mill" which is very appropriate due to the history of the building being a flour mill back in 1813, but the mill is said to have been there in the C16 (information taken from British Listed Buildings). The mill has so many features from the Welsh limestone floors, fully fitted kitchen with the original cast-iron spur wheel used as a "stand-out" feature to the stunning landscaped gardens with an array of ornamental trees, shrubs and herbaceous borders an idyllic setting to enjoy the ornamental pond fed by the Marlais stream with a cobblestone waterfall feature. This well-loved family home is spread out over three floors, not like your typical home set-up which makes the property more interesting, versatile and comfortable. Not only can you see the beautiful luxurious attention to details in every room, you can also feel the luxury beneath your feet and to the touch.
The Barn is believed to be the oldest part of the Felin Wen Estate, dating back some three hundred years. This was once a typical Welsh longhouse and piggery, you can still see the original pop-holes (which have now been closed up) and to add a little bit of character the front steps have been made from an original millstone. The barn offers a separate one bedroom accommodation and has also been restored to a very high standard. Unlike Felin Wen who has the outlook of the beautiful gardens from the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, The Barn has an equally pleasant outlook of the beautiful wild flowering banks of the Marlais stream and the gentle sounds of nature.
And not forgetting there is also a separate parcel of land that comes with the purchase. This land measures approx 0.36 of an acre (measured via Promap sc/05/26) and is situated as you turn in from the main road into Penpound Lane on the right-hand side. This parcel of land originally had a property on it.
