Draenog Farm: An Exceptional Coastal Retreat in Carmarthenshire
Nestled on approximately 18.5 acres of pristine countryside, Draenog Farm is a remarkable property, thoughtfully designed and constructed in 1971-72 by its current owners. With expansive single-level living space and the potential for additional accommodation, this unique home offers both comfort and versatility. An original farmhouse on the grounds, currently in need of restoration, holds planning permission (as of June 29, 2020) for a four-bedroom dwelling—perfect for extended family living or rental opportunities.
The property’s elevated position offers panoramic views across the Loughor estuary, the Gower Peninsula, and Carmarthen Bay, providing a tranquil and inspiring backdrop for daily life.
Accommodation: Ground Floor
Upon entering, you are welcomed into a spacious reception hall, which serves as the heart of the home. Double doors lead to the main reception areas, including a living room with a charming fireplace and patio doors that open to the garden. Adjacent to the living room, the dining room enjoys views over the front garden, creating an inviting space for gatherings.
The kitchen, fully equipped with fitted units, worktops, an oven, grill, hobs, and a microwave, is complemented by a utility room and a sunroom with patio access. The integral garage, accessible from both the interior and exterior, adds practicality and convenience.
The bedroom wing, accessible via the reception hall, features a principal bedroom with garden views, fitted wardrobes, and an en suite shower room. Three additional generously-sized bedrooms share a well-appointed bathroom. Two of these bedrooms are enhanced by vanity units.
First Floor
A pull-down ladder provides access to a useful loft area, currently used as a study and storage space. With the potential to convert this area into additional bedrooms (subject to planning and building regulations), this space offers future flexibility.
Exterior and Grounds
Draenog Farm is surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens with lawns, mature trees, shrubs, and flower borders. Several pasture paddocks are ideal for equestrian pursuits or livestock, while the woodland areas offer a serene environment for nature enthusiasts. The property also features a ground-mounted 5 kVA photovoltaic array, contributing to its sustainability.
Restoration Opportunity: The Original Farmhouse
Adjacent to the main residence, the original farmhouse presents an exciting restoration project. With detailed planning permission in place for conversion into a four-bedroom home, this offers a rare opportunity to create an additional dwelling, either for family or as a rental investment.

Sitting in your own ‘mini Dylan Thomas writing shed’ and looking out over the wondrous River Taf estuary, observing the real Dylan Thomas Boathouse and watching the changing skies and changing tides you would be forgiven for thinking you were in a dream ….. walk into the lounge and the dream gets better when you see the astonishing views before you. A beautiful dining kitchen and utility room with side patio seating, two bedrooms and a bathroom complete this modern and stylish home, with garage and driveway, landscaped gardens, pond and enviable elevated position. Offered with no onward chain this property is a ‘real treat’ and would make a fabulous holiday let, second home or permanent residence.
Laugharne is a wonderful beguiling Township that is full of character and charm, from the impressive Castle to the multitude of listed buildings, as well as some lovely pubs and restaurants that include The Portreeves, Dexters, Browns, Poons and The Mariners. Visitors often mention a special feeling about the place that is not to be found anywhere else. There is easy access to Carmarthen, and the M4 meaning on the odd occasion you feel compelled to leave you will have easy access to wherever you need to go.
