Rock Villa, Staylittle

A wonderful opportunity to acquire a character detached home that has been upgraded by the current owners retaining many original features and set in glorious Mid Wales countryside. Rock Villa is a delightful home, parts of which date back to the eighteenth century when it served as a chapel. It has a variety of outbuildings/storage sheds and approximately 8 acres of land occupying a superb rural location close to Lake Clywedog. In brief the accommodation affords entrance hall, living room, dining room, kitchen/breakfast room, boot room, and snug. There are two staircases leading to the first floor with four bedrooms, gallery landing, ensuite and a family bathroom. Although occupying an elevated and tranquil position, Rock Villa is just a 5-minute walk from the small village shop and post office and also offers superfast fibre broadband and strong 4G signal.

A former chapel dating back to 1768 'Capel-Y-Craig' (Rock Chapel) becoming a private dwelling in the 1870's now a delightful small holding of approximately 8 acres ( 3.23 Hectares ) occupying a superb rural location close to Lake Clywedog. This character property is just 7 miles from the pleasant market town of Llanidloes, a stones throw from the lake itself where there is a sailing club and further activities such as canoeing, fishing and ornithology. The famous footpath "Glyndwrs Way" is located just 1 mile from the property and a stones throw from the number 8 National Cycle Trail (known as the Lon Las Cymru in Welsh). The beautiful Hafren Forest is just 2 miles away offering lovely walks, including a walk to the source of the River Severn, bike rides and miles of out riding. Also, such is the location of Rock Villa, 15 mins from the attractive market town of Llanidloes and 20 mins from Machynlleth.
