Description

A rare and perhaps once in a lifetime opportunity to acquire an outstanding lifestyle property located on the edge of the Snowdonia National Park, extending in total to approximately 12 acres of beautiful pastureland, mature broadleaf woodland and useful outbuildings, occupying a truly spectacular elevated position on the outskirts of Conwy.

The property commands what can only be described as one of the finest panoramic viewpoints within the area, enjoying breathtaking 360 degree views across the surrounding countryside, towards Conwy Mountain, down the beautiful Conwy Valley and across the coastline towards the Great Orme and the sea beyond. The elevated setting provides a magnificent vantage point with scenery that changes dramatically throughout the seasons.

The property further benefits from a useful yard area together with a range of purpose-built timber and steel outbuildings including stabling, stores, workshop facilities and a covered implement shed, all of which provide excellent flexibility for agricultural, equestrian, storage or hobby uses, subject to any required consents.

Overall, this is an exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire an enchanting and highly versatile parcel of land in a truly outstanding location, offering enormous lifestyle appeal together with exciting future potential in one of North Wales’ most desirable settings.

Superb Yard and a range of purpose-built timber and steel outbuildings including stabling, stores, workshop facilities and a covered implement shed.

A particular feature of the property is the former water tower, which already benefits from planning permission for conversion into an animal shelter, horse shelter or similar use, offering excellent scope for those seeking equestrian or smallholding opportunities. In addition, there is a former sewage works structure, understood to have been constructed but never brought into operational use, which may offer future development potential for alternative uses or enterprise opportunities, subject to all necessary planning permissions and statutory consents being obtained.

A disused water tower is located on this parcel and has the benefit of planning consent for the use as a horse/livestock shelter and hay store. Planning Reference - 0/42955.

Parcel 4 – Disused Sewage Treatment Works - This is a 1-acre disused sewage works that was developed in the 1950’s for use when the North Wales Health Board planned to develop Oakwood Hospital further. The plans were curtailed, and no evidence is forthcoming that the sewage works were ever in use.
