Gelli Gatrog Gelli Gatrog presents a rare opportunity to acquire a well-established and highly regarded dairy farm, situated just eight miles southeast of Carmarthen and nine miles northwest of Llanelli. Extending to approximately 181 acres (gross), the farm comprises productive grassland arranged in large, practical and well accessible field blocks. The farm is accessed via a private farm driveway (subject to a public right of way), which offers access to the southern fields, leading up to an exceptional farmstead. The Land The holding extends to approximately 181 acres in total, with approximately 176 acres of land excluding the buildings and farmstead. All grassland fields have been highly productive silage cropping fields. The fields are level, easily accessible and enjoy far-reaching views. Positioned at an elevation of approximately 500 feet above sea level, the farm enjoys a commanding setting. In addition to the grassland, the holding includes a small proportion of wooded areas and a section of unimproved ground, all of which may align with future agricultural support scheme requirements. Several fields are connected to a private water network supplied by a borehole, which could potentially be reinstated depending on the purchaser’s farming intentions. The land is subject to Public Footpaths 30/61/1, 30/62/2, and 30/61/2. The soil is classified as freely draining, slightly acidic loamy soil. House Completed in 2010, the farmhouse provides accommodation befitting the quality and scale of the farm. Designed with practicality and comfort in mind, it features a well-planned open-plan kitchen and reception area, complete with premium solid wood kitchen units, a central island, a breakfast area, and a door leading to a snug/conservatory. The property enjoys underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, complemented by tiled and marble floors. A striking entrance hallway, featuring an oak staircase, leads to generously proportioned rooms. On the ground floor, the farmhouse offers a spacious sitting room accessed from the entrance hallway, a large kitchen and utility room, a shower room, a converted garage, and an office. The principal bedroom suite boasts an en-suite bathroom and dressing room, while three additional bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom. A convenient ground-floor shower room adds further practicality. The property is heated by an oil-fired central heating system, with individual zonal thermostats ensuring efficient temperature control throughout.
