Hidden deep within a wooded sanctuary, a rare cottage in Wales is up for sale, promising a serene escape into nature for the right buyer. But beware, this charming property comes with a few "spooky" strings attached.

The three-bedroom cottage, abandoned for nearly 25 years, sits on an expansive 132-acre plot. Surrounding it is a lush wilderness teeming with wildlife and vegetation—a setting that's both enchanting and eerie. The asking price for this slice of secluded paradise? A cool $880,000.

Located in the village of Rhydlewis, the property is described as a "stunning" retreat, accessible via a track that leads up to the farmhouse from the main road. Selling agents from John Francis Estate Agency in the U.K. have labeled the property as "rare" on the open market, and let’s just say they didn’t mean rare like a steak. This is a project property, folks—perfect for someone ready to embrace the off-grid lifestyle and possibly invest in a few gallons of bug spray.

The surrounding land makes the property ideal for a self-sustaining setup, offering ample potential for those dreaming of escaping the daily grind. And if you tire of the woodland vibes, the Ceredigion coastline is just a short drive away, boasting breathtaking scenery and pristine beaches. The new Ceredigion Coast Path, a 60-mile route linking towns and villages along Cardigan Bay, is an added perk for adventurous souls.

Rhydlewis itself provides basic amenities, and nearby towns such as Newcastle Emlyn, Cardigan, and Aberaeron offer more conveniences within commuting distance. Wales, recognized as an emerging tourist destination, continues to attract those seeking both tranquility and rugged beauty.

For anyone bold enough to take on this "spooky" venture, the rewards could be as vast as the 132 acres surrounding the cottage. But be warned: charm like this isn't for the faint of heart—or those afraid of a little DIY.
