About this property
Efail Y Banc – A Striking Country Home with Spectacular Views and Architectural Character
Set against the rolling hills of West Wales, Efail Y Banc is a truly exceptional country home that perfectly blends contemporary eco-conscious living with bold architectural charm. With an impressive EPC rating of B, the property benefits from a renewable air source heat pump, underfloor heating, and carefully curated interiors that make this home as practical as it is beautiful.
Step into a character-rich reception hall, where you’re greeted by exposed stonework, a handmade oak staircase with raw thyme metal detailing, and artisan tiled flooring that immediately sets the tone for the thoughtful craftsmanship found throughout.
At the heart of the home lies an open-plan kitchen, dining, and living space—a vibrant and elegant area with herringbone oak flooring, statement lighting, and bespoke cabinetry The kitchen includes a double sink island, marble-effect counters, and a walk-in pantry, all framed by expansive picture windows offering uninterrupted views of the surrounding countryside. From here, triple-glazed sliding doors open onto a sun-drenched patio—ideal for entertaining while enjoying the dramatic Welsh sunset skies.
Upstairs, the principal suite is a sanctuary of its own, boasting vaulted ceilings, a triple-aspect bedroom, and a luxurious bathroom with a freestanding slipper bath, twin vanity sinks, and a rainfall walk-in shower The dressing room, which could easily be repurposed as a fourth bedroom, offers added versatility.
Two additional bedrooms each feature a-frame ceilings, exposed stone detailing, and far-reaching views, served by a monochrome-tiled shower room
Outside, the landscaped gardens are designed in line with a proposed biodiversity plan, featuring formal lawns, wildflower meadows, a vegetable patch, and fantastic seating areas to soak up the view.

Location
Rhydargaeau Road is located just a few miles north of the historic market town of Carmarthen, offering the perfect balance between peaceful rural living and access to modern amenities. Surrounded by open countryside and farmland, this sought-after area is known for its scenic views, quiet lanes, and strong sense of community.
Despite its tranquil setting, Rhydargaeau Road is well connected. Carmarthen’s town centre is approximately a 10-minute drive away, where you'll find a wide range of independent shops, national retailers, cafés, restaurants, leisure facilities, and both Welsh- and English-medium schools. The town also benefits from excellent transport links, including a railway station with direct services to Swansea and beyond, and easy access to the A48 and M4 corridor.
The surrounding countryside is ideal for those who enjoy outdoor pursuits, with nearby walking and cycling routes, riverside trails, and access to the stunning Carmarthenshire coastline. The location is also within reach of local village pubs, farm shops, and community events, offering an authentic taste of West Wales life.
Whether you're looking for privacy, scenery, or proximity to town, Rhydargaeau Road offers a superb lifestyle opportunity in one of Carmarthenshire’s most desirable semi-rural settings.
