Description/Situation - Tucked away on the picturesque and peaceful 8 Horns Lane, this beautifully renovated two-bedroom mid-terrace stone cottage offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Haverfordwest's rich heritage-just a stone's throw from the heart of town. Ideally situated within the historic Castle Ward conservation area, the property lies within easy walking distance of local shops, caf�s, supermarkets, schools, leisure facilities, and Haverfordwest Castle itself. Excellent transport links, bus routes, and the train station are also close by, making it a perfect base for both town living and wider exploration of Pembrokeshire.

Believed to have once housed groomsmen serving the old stables opposite-possibly linked to the nearby castle-the cottage dates back to the early 19th century, appearing on maps from 1830-1880. Full of charm and character, the home has been sympathetically updated throughout. The cosy living room features an original cast iron range, and the loft retains its traditional purlin truss design with standing-height central space, offering scope for conversion.

In 2010, three windows and the front door were replaced through the council's conservation area scheme, maintaining the home's authentic look and benefitting from FENSA certification. Outside, a small, low-maintenance courtyard garden offers a peaceful escape, with the exciting potential for a future roof terrace.

A unique historical detail adds a magical touch: during renovation, a traditional good-luck child's shoe was discovered in the loft-an old custom meant to protect the home-and has been respectfully returned to its original hiding place.

A truly special blend of heritage, charm, and convenience-perfectly located in the heart of Haverfordwest.

This tranquil space offers more than just a peaceful corner-it also holds exciting potential. Historically, the courtyard included access via a set of steps to the flat roof area above the kitchen, which could be reinstated to create a wonderful roof terrace or elevated garden.
