This well-kept two-bedroom home in the rural village of Rhydowen offers off-road parking, air source heating, and a generous rear garden with countryside views all just ten minutes from Llandysul and within easy reach of Cardigan Bay and West Wales.

Tucked into the small village of Rhydowen, this detached two-bedroom cottage blends traditional charm with recent, thoughtful improvements. Set back from the road with plenty of parking and a car port, the house is ideal for anyone drawn to rural life with the convenience of town only ten minutes away.

The front of the house features a neat, enclosed patio area, while a gate at the side gives easy access to the generous rear garden. There s a second access gate and extra parking to the other side, making this layout especially handy for visitors, deliveries or storing a trailer or caravan. The gravelled driveway can comfortably take 2 cars, and the car port adds extra parking space & shelter from the elements.

Once inside, the living room is warm and characterful with a wood-burning stove set into a slate hearth a lovely feature for colder evenings. There s a sliding patio door leading out to the front patio, which lets in plenty of natural light. Wood effect flooring adds a rustic finish, tying in nicely with the cottage feel. From here, there s access to the main bedroom and a hallway that links to the kitchen and bathroom.

The kitchen and dining area has been updated with open wooden units and a butler-style sink. It s an honest and practical space with room for a range-style cooker, a dishwasher, and a family-sized table. There s also a handy built-in pantry cupboard, perfect for storing dry goods or keeping clutter out of sight. Steps lead up from the hallway, giving the kitchen a slightly raised aspect which adds a sense of separation without closing anything off.

Details Continued:

Off the kitchen is a porch-style utility area with tiled floors, plumbing for a washing machine, and back doors leading to both the side and rear gardens. This is a great practical space easy to keep clean and useful in daily life.The bathroom, updated in recent years, is a Jack-and-Jill style room with a short bath and shower over, wash basin, and toilet. Wooden floors continue the natural feel of the home, and the dual access points make it easy to reach from both the hallway and the bedrooms.

The main bedroom features built-in storage and a sliding door into the lounge. It also has a front-facing window and wooden floorboards.

It s already connected to electricity, so with a bit of care could make a great home office, craft space or somewhere to enjoy a cuppa while the sun goes down.With air source heating, solar panels, and a solid energy rating, the cottage is also well set up for the future.
