Dolgerddi Penygraig, Aberystwyth, SY23 3SG

Dolgerddi is one of those rare Aberystwyth gems - the kind of property you simply didn't know existed until the moment it's placed in front of you.

Individual, non-estate, and quietly confident in its setting, this substantial four-bedroom detached home occupies one of the most enviable positions in Llanbadarn Fawr: Tucked away at the end of a private lane, yet within comfortable walking distance of everything Aberystwyth has to offer.

Coming to the market for the first time in many years, and offered with no onward chain, Dolgerddi represents a genuinely rare opportunity to acquire a home of real character, scale and substance.

The property's greatest secret lies at the top of its magnificent mature garden.

Climb beyond the sweeping lawns and established borders - alive with seasonal colour and birdlife - and you are rewarded with one of the most outstanding panoramic views in the entire area: Across Aberystwyth, taking in Geufron Cricket Ground, the rugby club, the playing fields, the valley and the rolling Ceredigion hills stretching into the far distance.

It is a view that stops you in your tracks.

Inside, the accommodation is both spacious and beautifully considered, combining mid-century architectural character with a comprehensive suite of modern upgrades - including premium Danish timber-framed double glazing, an air source heat pump, and a spectacular Neff and Siemens fitted kitchen.

This is a home with soul, with surprise, and with a setting that will genuinely move you.

Garden Dolgerddi's grounds are as impressive as its interior, and arguably its greatest single asset.

To the front, a generous hot rolled asphalt driveway provides ample parking, alongside a covered carport for an additional vehicle - approached via a private lane with the sense of arrival befitting a property of this calibre.

To the rear, the garden unfolds in a series of beautiful spaces: A generous timber deck immediately off the sitting room - ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining - giving way to sweeping lawns and wildflower meadow, mature shrub borders, established trees and an abundance of seasonal planting that attracts remarkable birdlife throughout the year.

The garden rises gently, creating depth and drama, culminating in an elevated vantage point that reveals the property's defining surprise: A breathtaking panoramic view across Aberystwyth, Geufron Cricket Ground, the rugby club, the playing fields and the rolling Ceredigion hills beyond.

It is a view of the kind rarely found at the end of a quiet lane, within walking distance of a thriving town. It must be seen to be fully appreciated.
