Some properties effortlessly ooze character and history from the moment they emerge from their surroundings to captivate you. From visual architecturally brilliance lavished on a country manor to the charming, thick stone walls of a traditional Welsh farmhouse, from a cute cottage to a Victorian villa, there's a layer of homes in Wales that are elevated above the rest based on their picture perfect looks, outstanding location and land and, sometimes their history too. Somewhere, nestled amongst the wooded hillsides and rolling country of an idyllic Welsh river valley, a stunning and unique period mansion is hiding.
It's a Gothic-style gem that offers a new owner a chance to truly escape it all and live the country dream, with a rural landscape as the perfect backdrop and the sound of a sparkling river the perfect soundtrack. Called Lancych Mansion, the Grade II listed country residence is a grand abode, instantly impressing any visitor not only with the glorious location but with the distinctive Gothic facade boasting tall chimneys, multi-paned windows and fancy, decorative bargeboards; it's a great start to a property tour.
