This is a fine example of a Grade II Listed Regency mansion house dating from 1824 and occupying a prime, central position in the very centre of the bustling and internationally famous market town of Crickhowell in the Bannau Brycheiniog - Brecon Beacons - National Park and from which an extraordinary vista over the splendid tapestry and landscape of the Black Mountains can be richly enjoyed. Steeped in history and ancestry and occupying the site of a former residence where Charles I is believed to have once stayed, this substantial country property occupies grounds of circa 2.75 acres to include the main seven bedroomed, six bathroom, mansion house together with four receptions rooms, an entertainment room complete with bar, an addition to the principal accommodation containing a multi-media suite, pottery/artist studio, and kitchen plus bathroom facilities, two self-contained apartments, one of three bedrooms, and one with two bedrooms, and of great historical interest to the town, a Grade I Listed Gatehouse identified as being a scheduled ancient monument. Rarely does an opportunity to acquire a magnificent property such as this arise with the potential to occupy a major primary residence or commercial opportunity to suit. Given the size of the grounds, there is the potential for development but this, together with any change in classification of the property, would require the necessary planning consent.

Council Tax pays for multiple services in the property's local authority with only part of it going to the council itself. Residences within a Parish or Town Council area have an additional charge to fund the body. Each parish/town council has a different budget and imposes different fees. Not all councils have parishes/town councils and this varies across the country.
In instances where parish/town councils do affect the council tax value and we do not have the exact figure, we present council tax data with the below highlights. Take care to confirm which is being presented by the dashboard as this will need to be made clear to your clients:
avg - When we indicate the Council Tax price is 'avg', it means we have not been able to obtain an exact figure, so this number represents the mean value of Council Tax across the council for that property band. The exact figure will be slightly higher or lower because each parish/town council is priced differently.
min - When we indicate the Council Tax is a 'min', it represents the known amount that the council sets for itself, but excludes the parish/town council cost which we have not been able to obtain. The additional cost will need to be considered as it will be greater than the indicated price.
