Maes Maldwyn, Llanddew, Brecon

Positioned in the quiet village of Llanddew on the outskirts of Brecon, is a thoughtfully designed, contemporary home that takes full advantage of its elevated position and sweeping views of the Brecon Beacons.

This newly built property features an “upside-down living” layout — with the main living areas, kitchen, and lounge situated on the upper floor to maximise the surrounding landscape. Large windows and open-plan spaces invite natural light while offering uninterrupted views. Downstairs, the bedrooms provide quiet and comfort, separated from the living area to create a practical and well-balanced home.

The house is finished to a high standard throughout, including solid oak stairs with integrated lighting, modern bathrooms with underfloor heating, and quality fixtures and finishes. Slabbing has been completed all around the house, creating clean, accessible outdoor space that connects the interior with the generous gardens.

Sustainable features have also been considered, including solar panels installed on the roof to assist with energy efficiency.

Externally, the home benefits from a tarmac driveway, post and rail fencing, feather edge boundary fencing, and detailed stonework that adds texture and a sense of permanence. A well-positioned patio to the rear takes in far-reaching views and creates a relaxing spot for outdoor dining or entertaining.
