Location
St Eigons Spring Farm occupies an exceptional position within the foothills of the Black Mountains, forming part of the Brecon Beacons National Park (Bannau Brycheiniog), an area designated for its outstanding natural beauty and protected landscape. The setting offers a rare balance of seclusion and accessibility, being situated along a quiet no-through lane with minimal passing traffic, ensuring a high degree of privacy and tranquillity.
Despite its peaceful rural position, the property is conveniently located just a short drive from the highly regarded market town of Hay-on-Wye, approximately 2 miles to the east. Hay-on-Wye is internationally renowned for its literary culture and annual Hay Festival, attracting visitors from across the UK and beyond. The town provides a comprehensive range of day-to-day amenities including independent retailers, bookshops, cafés, restaurants, public houses, a primary school, medical centre, dental practice, and a convenience supermarket, alongside a popular weekly outdoor market.
For broader connectivity, the cathedral city of Hereford lies approximately 20 miles to the east, offering a wider range of shopping, educational, and leisure facilities, as well as a mainline railway station with connections to Birmingham and London. The market town of Brecon is approximately 15 miles to the west, providing additional services and amenities.

The main entrance leads into a central hallway, from which three double bedrooms and a family bathroom are accessed on one level. A further bedroom is located adjacent to the sitting room, alongside a separate shower room.
The sitting room is a standout feature, with two large picture windows framing uninterrupted views and an open fireplace providing a focal point. Steps lead down to the dining room, which also enjoys elevated views and connects to an inner hallway with built-in storage and access to the garden via a porch.

The Annex
Positioned adjacent to the driveway, the self-contained annex provides excellent additional accommodation. It comprises a kitchen, shower room, double bedroom, and a further single bedroom with a southerly aspect.
Previously used as a successful holiday let, the annex offers clear potential for income generation or independent living accommodation.
