3 bed property for sale

New Street, Lampeter SA48

A rare opportunity to enjoy the best of both worlds - a wonderfully private, almost rural setting extending to approximately one acre, yet within easy walking distance of Lampeter town centre.
Inside, the chain free property has been thoughtfully refurbished to provide comfortable and stylish three-bedroom, two-bathroom accommodation, with quality fixtures and fittings throughout. The generous open-plan living and dining space makes the most of the outlook, while the recently updated kitchen and bathrooms give the home a modern, ready-to-enjoy feel.
Combined with the extensive grounds and surrounding views, the river frontage gives the property an unusually private and countryside feel. It is easy to forget that Lampeter's shops, cafés and other amenities are only a short walk away.

This balance of accessibility and seclusion is increasingly difficult to find.

Description

Set back behind private gates and surrounded by generous gardens, this impressive detached home occupies an unusually spacious plot for a property so conveniently positioned. The grounds extend down towards the River Teifi and provide a wonderful sense of seclusion, with extensive lawns, productive growing areas, an orchard, outbuildings and a poly tunnel.

From the house and gardens, there are far-reaching views across the River Teifi and surrounding valley, creating a peaceful countryside outlook that feels a world away from conventional town living.

Location

The property is situated on New Street, a popular residential location on the edge of Lampeter, with the considerable advantage of being within comfortable walking distance of the town centre.

Lampeter provides a good selection of everyday amenities including shops, cafés, restaurants, professional services and educational facilities, together with the University of Wales Trinity Saint David campus and Ysgol Bro Pedr.

Despite its convenient position, the property enjoys a remarkably private setting. The extensive grounds, river boundary and open views give it an unmistakably rural character, making it particularly appealing to buyers looking for peace, outdoor space and a connection with the surrounding countryside without being isolated.
