Description
A beautifully restored and extended three-bedroom lodge of historic character, set within approximately eight acres of private grounds and offering rare, direct access to the breathtaking Mawddach Estuary. Formerly a gate house, this unique residence has been thoughtfully and comprehensively renovated, blending period charm with refined modern living in an exceptional rural setting.
The property sits gracefully within its expansive landholding, surrounded by mature woodland, open clearings, and sweeping natural scenery. To the front are unbeatable sea and mountain views.
The property has recently undergone a comprehensive renovation programme which has elevated every aspect of this home, with a calm, contemporary interior palette, quality finishes, and an effortless flow between rooms.
The single storey property features inviting living spaces with generous natural light, while the bespoke kitchen/diner provides a stylish heart to the home — ideal for both everyday comfort and entertaining. In addition there are three beautifully appointed bedrooms, all with stylish and contemporary en-suite facilities.
The land itself is a standout feature: circa eight acres of private, unspoilt countryside, offering exceptional privacy, wildlife, and endless possibilities for leisure, small-scale hobby farming, or simply enjoying the tranquillity. A private pathway leads directly to the Mawddach Estuary, granting exclusive access to one of Wales’ most celebrated natural landscapes — perfect for paddleboarding, kayaking, or peaceful shoreline walks.
Externally, the lodge is framed by charming stonework, landscaped areas, and natural woodland, creating a sense of seclusion and timeless rural beauty. This is a property that offers not just a home, but a lifestyle — one defined by space, nature, and the rare privilege of private estuary access.
A truly exceptional opportunity to acquire a fully renovated historic property in the perfect setting.
