A family home that once operated as a B&B and has its own wild swimming pool has been put up for sale for £750,000.
If you're looking for somewhere to run as a business – then this might just be the perfect spot, with six bedrooms and a major improvement programme by its former owners.
Located in Dolanog in northern Powys, the living space is arranged over four floors, with a first floor annexe and lower ground space – currently used as a games room and workshop – providing a potential revenue stream for its new owners.
The pool, officially named Lyn Dolanog, is a huge feature of the property and is fully stocked with trout and carp with water lilies around the edge along with specimen trees. A condition of the planning permission at Tan Yr Allt is that the pool cannot be used as a standalone fishery and is only used by owners and guests of the property.
There is also a pontoon bridge allowing access to a decked sun bathing area, which can also be used for al fresco dining, along with three decked jetties. It is reported that the pool is frequently visited by an otter, a heron and a pine martin.
Included in the sale is a glazed summer house which is currently used as a workshop but would make a fantastic studio and has a wood burning stove.
Peter Daborn, director in the residential sales team at Savills in Telford, whose team are handling the sale, says: “At a time when temperatures have been soaring and we’ve all been looking at ways to keep cool, this beautiful family home has just the answer – its very own wildlife and swim pool!
"Surrounded by breathtaking countryside, Tan Yr Allt also provides enormous potential to prospective owners and we fully expect this sale to capture the imagination of interested buyers.”
