Winner of the Best High Street in Britain in the Great British High Street Awards, Crickhowell is a small yet thriving town set amongst the stunning scenery of the Brecon Beacons National Park alongside the banks of the River Usk.

Crickhowell also benefits from dentist surgeries, a health centre, a garage, and the iconic Webbs hardware store. There are numerous public houses, gastro pubs and restaurants, and no description of Crickhowell would be complete without mentioning The Bear which has been serving customers since 1432 and stands in a prominent position at the head of the high street, in the centre of this bustling town. The area is also well served for schools for all ages, both of which are fêted in both the local area and further afield too.

AGENT NOTE

The property benefits from a substantial plot and the vendor had sought planning consent for a separate detached dwelling to be constructed in the grounds, details of which can be found on The Brecon Beacons National Park website on the planning portal under reference 19/17737/FUL. The application was later withdrawn by the vendor due to ongoing concerns by National Resources Wales about phosphate neutrality of new developments which the Agent understands is due for review in 2025. This does offer the opportunity, subject to consent, to create ancillary accommodation to suit.

Important information

This is a Freehold property.
