We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
A Period Residence with gardens, grounds and parking occupying an enviable position in the heart of the historic market town of Builth Wells currently run as an established bed and breakfast property, but potential to be a substantial residential home if desired.
Occupying an enviable position in the heart of the historic market town of Builth Wells, The Owls is a period residence of considerable character and scale.
Beautifully proportioned and steeped in heritage with outstanding versatility.
Currently operated as a highly regarded bed and breakfast, The Owls offers beautifully arranged accommodation extending to nine individually appointed bedrooms and eight bathrooms.
Equally, the property lends itself to being a substantial private residence, offering generous and adaptable living spaces suited to modern family life, multi-generational occupation, or those seeking a lifestyle property.
The ground floors centre around three gracious reception rooms. Character features throughout the home reflect its period origins, creating an atmosphere of warmth, refinement and enduring charm.
Outside, the gardens and grounds provide an attractive and private setting in which to relax and entertain, while ample off-road parking for numerous vehicles adds a practical dimension rarely found in such a central location.
The Owls enjoys a prime High Street setting within the vibrant market town of Builth Wells, renowned for its welcoming community, independent shops, cafés and restaurants, together with its close association with the Royal Welsh Showground.
Surrounded by the rolling landscapes of Mid Wales, the property offers immediate access to some of the country's most spectacular countryside, making it equally appealing as a permanent residence, a hospitality venture, or an investment in one of Wales' most picturesque locations.
Whether continuing its legacy as an established guest house or restoring it to an impressive family home, The Owls represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a property of distinction, offering elegance, flexibility and enduring appeal.
