Lichen Barn - Brecon

A superbly renovated, Grade 11 listed old Threshing Barn, sleeping 5 and dating from 1821. Once housing the Laundry, the old Bakery and the Granary and the Threshing floor for the wheat and corn; the owners have retained the many old oak beams, original old Laundry cast iron tub and the stone Granary Steps leading from an upstairs bedroom. Pretty lamps from L' Aquila in Italy, re-claimed circular stairs and hand-made curtain rails, window latches, wrought iron work all made by the owner who is a Blacksmith.

Cottage Facilities

The owner has restored Lichen Barn with their usual superb eye for detail. The kitchen is contemporary with a newly fitted kitchen with an oven, hob, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine and a tumble dryer (access to) a fridge and a separate freezer. There are lovely stone and wooden floors throughout, some beautiful hand made folding doors that lead through to a spacious sitting room with comfortable sofas and chairs and a woodburning stove set in the stone wall with a great oak lintel. TV with Freeview and DVD. There is a dining room with a great hand-made oak table and a Rayburn set in a corner to retain the character of the property. Doors lead out to the patio behind the cottage and then a path leads out to the long flat meadow that, in the "heyday " of the Large house, used to be the croquet lawn. The CROQUET LAWN can still be used to-day.

A spacious downstairs cloakroom has a large shower and a handbasin and toilet.

Up a flight of spiral stairs to three bedrooms:

Bedroom 1:  A lovely light bedroom with a brass double bed and granary steps down to the garden.
Bedroom 2: A bedroom with a double bed.
Bedroom 3: A bedroom with a single bed.
The bathroom has a bath, handbasin and toilet.

This beautifully presented old Lichen Threshing Barn is in the same location as Blacksmith House and so could be used together thus sleeping 13 people.
