The Property
Dating back to the 1600's and cut into the hillside Fedw is a truly wonderful country residence that offers such charming, character accommodation that makes you feel so at ease when viewing.

As you enter the property you step into a porch which in turn leads to the main hallway. Immediately the impressive character features are on show with the exposed wall and ceiling timbers. The wonderful dog-legged stair with newel post leads to the first floor with the original dog gate on the half landing which is lovely to see. To the left of the hall is the main reception room, this impressive room boasts an exposed stone inglenook fireplace, with a large, fitted wood burner. There are extensive exposed timbers on show, with windows to the front and rear is offers a light aspect. There is an external door to the rear which opens to the back garden and from here the far-reaching views are extremely impressive! The second reception room is a similar size again with an impressive inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove. The original bread oven remains, with extensive exposed timbers it’s a lovely room to relax. From here you have access to the kitchen, which is fitted with ample wall and base units, with a range style cooker and extractor hood. A door open to a stair to a cellar, perfect to keep a bottle of wine cool for an evening meal. The remainder of the ground floor accommodation offers a laundry room, utility and a shower room.
As you climb the wonderful staircase you step onto the large open landing, the character features continue with exposed wall and ceiling timbers always on show. Off the landing you have access to five bedrooms and a bathroom. The main bedroom is a good size double, with the original exposed stone fireplace, exposed timbers and a fitted wardrobe. To the side of the main bedroom is the family bathroom which is fitted with a white suite. The second bedroom is a double and to the rear of the house, this pleasant room enjoys a wonderful view and has the benefit of an en-suite shower room which is fitted with a modern white suite, which still has the original, quirky wooden window in place. Bedrooms three and four are charming rooms with exposed timbers on show, with bedroom three being a double and four a large single. The fifth bedroom, which was used as a single when the property was previously used for B&B again has the benefit of an en-suite shower room, with a modern white suite.
The beautiful stair climbs to the second floor with a door opening to the landing, watch your head as a low beam will certainly cause you to duck under if accessing the loft! Off the landing the sixth bedroom is a double, again with an en-suite shower room. On the opposite side of the landing a room has been used as a lounge or office which makes this space almost self-contained from the rest of the house, perfect for a family member looking for some privacy.
