Introduction & Situation

Gellidwyll Farm offers an outstanding opportunity to acquire a beautifully situated 75.71-acre (30.64 ha) livestock rearing farm nestled in the scenic Mid Wales countryside.

At the heart of the property is the charming three/four bedroom farmhouse, which has been sympathetically renovated by the current owners to create a warm and inviting family home, and offers an abundance of character and charm throughout. The house enjoys breathtaking views over the surrounding valley and rolling countryside, providing a peaceful rural setting.

The farmyard features a large, traditional stone barn with excellent potential for development, ideal for conversion into an additional dwelling, holiday accommodation, or multigenerational living (subject to the necessary planning consents).

The range of modern agricultural buildings provide versatile space for livestock housing, fodder storage, and general farm use, which are all well-suited to the needs of a holding of this scale.

The farmland itself is a diverse mix of predominantly sloping Grade 4 grassland which has produced good fodder crops, and mature, mixed-species woodland. The gentle Clas Brook meanders its way through the land, which together with the pasture and woodland, offers significant appeal for environmental, conservation, and biodiversity projects.

Gellidwyll Farm is a valuable opportunity to secure a picturesque farm in a sought-after part of Mid Wales. With no public rights of way crossing the farm, the property offers an exceptional level of seclusion, forming an ideal private haven for buyers seeking peace, privacy, and tranquility.

The Farmland

Gellidwyll Farm is a ring-fenced holding extending to approximately 75.71 acres (or thereabouts) of unspoilt Powys countryside. The land is laid out in conveniently sized enclosures, primarily comprising Grade 4 agricultural land, which is well-suited for grazing and fodder crop production. The land benefits from freely draining, slightly acidic loamy soils, and is bisected by the gently flowing Clas Brook, adding both natural charm and a valuable water source. Elevation ranges from approximately 850 to 1,050 feet above sea level, offering varied terrain. Interspersed with areas of mature mixed woodland, the holding offers a versatile mix of pasture and environmental features.

A significant advantage of Gellidwyll Farm are the excellent hill grazing rights which we are informed include 115 sheep grazing rights onto the adjoining Little Hill, plus further hill grazing rights onto Glascwm Hill for 101 sheep, 3 cattle and 7 horses.

Scattered trees and woodland areas upon the farm provide valuable natural shelter, enhance the biodiversity of the farm, and contribute to its environmental and conservation appeal. In the spring, these woodland areas burst into life with a vibrant carpet of bluebells, adding to the property's natural beauty. The variety of habitats including permanent pasture, mature trees, and woodland could support future environmental projects, including carbon offsetting initiatives.
