An impressive range of stone barns, formerly used as a watermill set near the village of St Brides-super-Ely in the Vale of Glamorgan, is being offered as a prime development opportunity for conversion into an attractive residential dwelling. St y Nyll Barns comprises a mixture of traditional stone and brick buildings with a series of distinctive, semi-circular, high level arched openings and a slate roof. The L-shape structure has full planning permission to provide a large, south-facing residence with five en-suite bedrooms and substantial living space, encompassing a courtyard garden arrangement.

Rhian Howells, Surveyor with Cooke & Arkwright’s Land Agency comments, “St y Nyll is a rare opportunity for someone to create a generous residential property complete with a landscaped courtyard in a picturesque rural location. When you also consider the relatively close proximity of these barns to Cardiff, they are actually in a lovely setting, representing the best of both worlds. They are a unique and very enticing project for a buyer.”

St y Nyll is located in 1.54 acres in an attractive rural settlement which includes a small area of woodland to the north. It is approached by a driveway leading to a large car parking plot. Larger villages of Peterston-super-Ely and St Fagans are nearby with a post office and pubs, together with a primary school. Cardiff is around 3.5 miles away.

Blake Morgan committed to 29,000 sq ft office in the exciting Central Square development. We retained Ben Bolton and his team some time ago to advise and appraise options in the lead up to this significant move of our Cardiff Office. The business is extremely pleased with the outcome and Ben's negotiations and attention to detail was a major part to this.
