EPC A-Rated | A Rarely Found Energy-Efficient Victorian Home in Idyllic Rhydywrach

A Beautifully Renovated Victorian Home in the Desirable Hamlet of Rhydywrach

Set in the heart of its own expansive grounds, this charming late-Victorian country residence enjoys a peaceful position along a quiet, picturesque country lane in the highly sought-after hamlet of Rhydywrach. With far-reaching views across open countryside, the home combines timeless character with thoughtful modern upgrades, offering the best of both worlds.

Sympathetically renovated in 2015, the property retains many original features while benefiting from a full rewire, damp proofing, and comprehensive insulation to the floors, walls, and roof. In late 2024, further eco-friendly upgrades were installed, including a heat pump, solar panels, and a solid fuel stove—ensuring warmth, comfort, and cost-efficiency year-round.

A particular highlight is the A-rated Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)—an exceptional achievement for a home of this age. This rare rating ensures minimal running costs while maintaining a consistently warm and comfortable living environment, making it one of the most energy-efficient period homes on the market.

Inside, the accommodation is both stylish and practical. The first floor offers three beautifully presented bedrooms and a recently refitted, contemporary bathroom. On the ground floor, there are two generous reception rooms and a modern kitchen, all bathed in natural light thanks to triple-aspect windows and French doors opening to the surrounding gardens.

The property is ready to move into, with no work required. It’s connected to mains electricity and water (with a private septic tank for drainage), and there’s also an LPG gas supply. Additionally, a natural spring is believed to be located in the adjacent paddock. The current owner works remotely and reports excellent broadband speed—ideal for streaming, video conferencing, and large file transfers.

Sitting on just under an acre, the grounds have been lovingly landscaped and planted with mature fruit trees including apple, pear, plum, and cherry. Several bespoke outbuildings offer versatile space for hobbies, storage, or further development. A separate enclosed paddock houses a static caravan connected to mains water, electricity, and private drainage—perfect for guests, workspace, or a variety of alternative uses.

For those looking to expand, the home comes with current planning permission and full Building Regulations approval for a single-storey bedroom extension over the kitchen. A lapsed application also exists for a more substantial two-storey rear extension—offering exciting potential for larger families or multi-generational living.

The sweeping driveway offers ample parking and level access to all areas of the property. Whether enjoying birdsong and stargazing in the summer or cosying up by the log fire in the winter, the setting provides a true escape from the everyday.

While offering peace and privacy, the home is far from isolated. The nearby village of Llanfallteg boasts a vibrant community and a popular local pub. Just six miles away is the award-winning town of Narberth—voted one of the best places to live in Wales—home to a variety of independent cafes, restaurants, antique shops, and boutiques.

Local attractions such as Bluestone National Park Resort, Folly Farm, and other West Wales gems are within easy reach, making this a truly special place to live, relax, and explore.
