VENDOR INSIGHT
How long have you owned the property?
“Since January 2000.”
What attracted you to this specific house and location?
“The history of the property, its kerb appeal, manageable gardens in a tiny, pretty hamlet; you're in the countryside within a few strides to enjoy primroses, bluebells, lots of birds and wildlife. Kind neighbours, a friendly community and the brilliant White Lion Inn to spend happy times enjoying a good meal and a glass or two!”
What would you like to tell parents about the benefits of raising children here?
“A choice of Infant, Primary and Secondary schools within a couple of miles. Fresh country air to enjoy the playground and brand new Community Centre; plenty of sand and seaside attractions just two miles down the road.”
What can you tell us about the history of the property and how it has been adapted since you’ve owned it?
“This was the Village Smithy, where horses were shod, in particular, the huge local shire horses. Yr Efail became a comfortable home in the 1990's. When we moved here, 12 days into the 21st Century we found opportunities to bring in more light, open up living spaces, add features without losing character or atmosphere. It is a deceptively generous space; we added an annexe in 2016, forfeiting the garage as there is ample parking space here. Lots of loft space...that would be the next possibility...”
Who do you think would be the ideal next owner?
“It’s a family home - perfect for raising children, entertaining friends and enjoying country and seaside activities. It's been a happy party house. Lots of space for outgoing people to live their best lives in a happy community.”
What’s your favourite room and why?
“The kitchen, where family and friends congregate around our big - and extendable farmhouse table - at any time of the day, not just to eat, but to put the world to rights, play cards, savour a good bottle of wine, enjoy a newspaper or quiet game of chess.”
Memorable/remarkable event?
“Our eldest daughter's wonderful wedding weekend was such fun: a houseful of family, preparations, callers, flowers, gifts, food, leaving in sleek limousines, returning the following day to create a kitchen table action replay of the whole experience. Happy days!”
What do you love about the house the most now?
“The memories we made here.”
What you’ll miss most?
“The feeling of belonging, our friends, (who've never been just neighbours), the reassuringly faint sound of bleating lambs becoming stronger in Spring and living in a place where you're so aware of the beautiful changing seasons.”
What do you love about the local community?
“The Church bell ringing every Sunday morning, briefly chatting with a passing walker, lots of lunches and suppers at the White Lion, sitting outside in our sunny garden waiting for a bbq! Llanelian Spring Fair, Christmas Eve Church services, followed by socialising, again, in the warmth of the pub's generous log fires. Such happy memories!”
