Description
Brynhyfryd is a striking and beautifully maintained four-bedroom detached residence, traditionally built with slate and granite under a recently renewed slated roof. Thoughtfully extended by the current owners, the home now features a stunning, contemporary steel-framed glass addition that captures panoramic views over the Dulas Valley, visible from both the kitchen and the master bedroom.
The property has been tastefully modernised and upgraded to create an exceptional family home. Set within approximately 2.14 acres of meticulously landscaped botanic gardens rich in various species of trees and shrubs, providing an exciting opportunity for those who are keen gardeners, it offers ample off-road parking, a flexible workshop/garage space, and expansive tiered gardens that enjoy the views across the valley.
The lower garden area currently contains cabins, offering potential for additional income or the opportunity to be used as a creative studio space.
Adjacent to the house, the upper garden level provides a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living, complete with a vegetable garden and dedicated spaces for al fresco dining and relaxation. Beyond this, the uppermost section of the grounds blends into semi-managed woodland, rich with a variety of tree species and exotic rhododendron and winding footpaths, offering a tranquil retreat with breath taking views.
Energy-efficient features include an air source heat pump, solar panels, and partial underfloor heating on the ground floor and bathrooms, with the option to extend it further should a new owner desire. Modern radiators serve the remaining areas, ensuring comfort throughout.
The introduction of Brynhyfryd to the market presents a rare opportunity for buyers seeking a thoughtfully refurbished home with expansive gardens, stunning views, and a peaceful rural lifestyle.
Accommodation includes:
A welcoming entrance hallway, a study or fifth bedroom, a sitting room, and a family room that flows into the kitchen/dining area with garden and valley views. From the hallway, there is access to a utility room, shower room, dry storage, and a boot/sun room. Upstairs, the landing leads to four generously sized bedrooms, including a master with en-suite shower room, and a separate family bathroom.
Viewing is highly recommended.
