Elan Village House For Sale
When we bought our house, number 11, in 2004, it was a remarkable event, in that none of the stone built Elan Village houses had been sold to a private buyer in the one hundred year history of the village. One of the houses across the river in Glan yr Avon had been sold some years prior to that. Both of the houses that have been sold belonged to the Severn Trent water company. Now Severn Trent have put our neighbouring house, number 10, up for sale.
We believe that any private purchaser will need to bear in mind that the purchase price is only the first stage, as the house will require further capital to bring it to an acceptable standard. However this represents a great opportunity for the right buyer. Living in the village is a great privilege, it is a peaceful and beautiful place to live, with all the excitement of sharing the valley with both visitors and wildlife.

- Otter-ly delightful
Face to face with an otter, who was the most surprised? The otter took our meeting in it’s stride, but it was intensely exciting for us.
Well, it may be for sale. My post, above was placed on the 13th July. Soon after that an estate agent’s board was placed at the front of the house. To this time, as far as we are aware, the Estate Agent has not been given instructions to sell. A rather strange state of affairs. We are now becoming concerned that the house will be very vulnerable to winter frosts, etc.
