Description

Tom Parry & Co are delighted to offer for sale this enchanting Victorian gardener’s cottage, nestled within the breath-taking Nantmor Valley within the Snowdonia National Park. This property offers a rare opportunity to own a truly magical retreat in one of North Wales’ most spectacular settings. Surrounded by over 5 acres of ancient deciduous rainforest, a paddock and beautifully established grounds filled with exotic shrubs and mature woodland, Tyn-Y-Chwarel enjoys an idyllic and private position with stunning views towards the Arddu mountains and forest.

Located within a designated SSSI and SAC landscape, the property combines natural beauty, ecological significance and peaceful seclusion, while remaining conveniently close to the charming village of Beddgelert.

Set back from the road and approached via a long private driveway, this characterful detached residence has been sympathetically refurbished to blend period charm with impressive modern efficiency. The home now benefits from over 20 solar panels, a new air source heat pump and underfloor heating, creating a comfortable and energy-conscious living environment.

The accommodation includes a welcoming kitchen/diner, two versatile reception rooms, a conservatory and three first-floor bedrooms, all perfectly positioned to enjoy the surrounding landscape and tranquillity. Outside, the extensive gardens, woodland and open spaces provide endless opportunities for relaxation, recreation or future potential, subject to the requisite statutory consents.

A wonderful sanctuary in a truly stunning location, Tyn Y Chwarel is a unique lifestyle property offering peace, privacy and direct access to the extraordinary beauty of Snowdonia’s ancient woodland landscapes.
