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
Ty Ffawyddog is an extended, period farmhouse, coming to the market for the first time in 37 years.
Situated in the peaceful rural hamlet of Ffawyddog within the Bannau Brycheiniog National Park, this much-loved home enjoys a truly enviable position in a sought after location where homes are rarely available on the open market.
Over the years, the current owners have sympathetically improved and extended the property, creating a characterful and much loved family home that blends traditional charm with practical modern living.
The accommodation itself is arranged over two floors, with the ground floor comprising a traditional porch which leads into a central sitting room with a feature fireplace and stairs rising to the first floor.
This room connects to a two further generous reception rooms both with dual aspect and fireplaces including multi-fuel stoves.
In addition there is a 14' square kitchen/breakfast room off which is a large utility room/boot room with separate entrance, and a guest WC.
Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, including a large principal room and a flexible fourth bedroom that could serve as a study or guest room.
There is also a bright family bathroom with a separate shower and a spacious landing with built-in storage. Set within approximately 11 acres, the grounds offer an exceptional lifestyle opportunity.
A significant portion of the land underwent a woodland planting scheme in 2000 and now features a thriving mix of native British species including oak, holly, silver birch, beech, cherry, and rowan, creating a rich natural environment full of wildlife.
Closer to the house are well-maintained formal gardens, paddocks, and a productive vegetable garden with a large aluminium-framed greenhouse.
There are also a range of useful outbuildings, including a garage.
A key feature of the grounds are the staggering views they afford from all parts providing 180-degree views across the Usk Valley and the Black Mountains.
Ty Ffawyddog offers an incredibly rare combination of seclusion, scenic beauty, and convenience, just a short drive from the award-winning town of Crickhowell with its vibrant high street and excellent schools.
Abergavenny, with its mainline railway station and wider range of amenities, is also within easy reach, providing direct links to Cardiff, Bristol, and London.
This is a unique opportunity to acquire a special home in one of the area's most picturesque settings.
________________________________________ Key Information / Services A public footpath and bridleway run in front of Ty Ffawyddog and down the driveway.
The property benefits from oil-fired central heating via a Rayburn, mains electricity and water, and private drainage via a septic tank. In 2000, solar panels were installed on the south-facing roof.
