For anyone looking for a home which combines the old and new, there’s a unique home near the Pembrokeshire coast that happily offers both boxes ticked.
Penmynydd is a captivating property that enjoys a commanding position above the ever-changing north Pembrokeshire coastline, and most would argue is a perfect blend of traditional and modern features.
The former farmhouse has been truly transformed by the addition of a modern wing at a right angle to the period property to allow the lucky occupants access to the most absorbing of views through the two storeys of glass-walled accommodation.

The four bedroom home is hiding some extra, welcome features inside in addition to its stunning glass-drenched rooms in the modern wing. The ground floor principal bedroom suite includes a luxurious bathroom and dressing room and the sprawling first floor kitchen, living, dining area, boasting a whole wall of glass, is a triumph.
Inside there’s a self-contained flat on the ground floor, offering a bedroom with ensuite, open-plan kitchen, lounge diner and glass doors out into the garden that is also the dwelling’s separate external door separate from the main house. For granny, for grown-up children, for income – the secret home within this home is as versatile as it is welcoming.
Externally, the property offers beautiful gardens extending around the home with superb sea views plus another two bonus features – a shepherd’s cabin with power and water supply and a fully insulated block-built workshop to the rear.
The gardens provide numerous seating areas and hidden spots to enjoy the tranquillity and privacy of this enchanting location but they are practical as well as pretty because on the rear elevation, 18kW of electricity-generating solar panels paired with a 10kW battery can be found, helping to keep running costs to a minimum.
The nearby city of St Davids, the UK’s smallest city, is celebrated for its charming collection of independent shops, inviting cafés, and characterful eateries, all just a short distance away. Known for its magnificent cathedral, St Davids is now more than just a historic landmark; it’s a vibrant community that warmly welcomes both locals and visitors.
Beyond the city, are some of Wales’ most stunning coastline and countryside, with Whitesands Beach frequently lauded as one of Britain’s finest – a perfect corner of Wales to enjoy water sports and sailing, or simply taking in the scenery through long walks and hiking, bike and horse rides through the exhilarating landscape.
The estate agent selling the home says that Penmynydd presents an exceptional family home that beautifully blends the charm of traditional cottage features with bold, modern, and highly functional renovations. This striking property truly matches the grandeur of its extraordinary location.
