A magnificent six bedroom stone barn conversion set in grounds of approx. 3.5 acres in an accessible location
The barn is believed to date back to the 1860’s and was originally part of Ballas Farm, which was formerly a dairy farm. It was converted into the impressive dwelling that it is today, spanning more than 4200 sq ft across two levels, in 2001.
In addition to the large gardens there is a paddock and area of woodland through which the current vendors have created an extremely pleasant woodland walk.
The location is extremely appealing with easy access to junction 37 of the M4 motorway, as well as a mainline rail station in nearby Bridgend with regular services to London Paddington. There is a range of local amenities in Pyle including an Asda supermarket with a wider range in Porthcawl, which is renowned for its beautiful beaches.
