Countryside and coast – best place to live

This house is a lifestyle dream with surrounding idyllic countryside and proximity to the coast.

Balfours partner, Scott Kemsley explains: “Llys-Hywel is a 4 bedroom house found just 2.5 miles from the beach and close to the village of Llanrhystud, Ceredigion, with a vibrant community including primary school, shop, pub, post office and much more. Add to this the Penrhos Golf Course, Leisure Centre and Spa and you have a truly special location; a fact endorsed by the neighbouring Georgian Harbour town of Abaraeron, voted the Best Place to Live in Wales, just 6 miles away.”

Offering 4 bedrooms and set in half an acre, which includes pond and woodland copse plus 2 stables and garage Llys-Hywel is a character stone-built home with generous glazing offering an abundance of natural light.

The entrance is via the Orangery, a welcoming space with cloakroom off, there are steps up to the kitchen/breakfast room and double doors to the third bedroom, which equally could be a second reception room. The kitchen benefits from an Aga and worktop with units under.
