Agents Opinion
Properties of this size, in this price bracket and so close to Cardiff City centre just do not become available very often, and when they do may we suggest early viewing's are recommended. This fabulous and extended property occupies a very generous plot, overlooking surrounding fields and has fantastic views of the countryside. Included in the sale is a 2 bedroom cottage, which can provide separate accommodation to any friends/relatives. It can also be let out as a holiday home, as it has done, to provide an additional income for any future owners of the Farmhouse + Cottage.
Additional land may be offered for sale if desired by separate negotiation.
