Ground floor
A four-panel timber doorway opens into a welcoming entrance hall, which is neatly laid with Minton floor tiles and features deep ceiling cornices.
To the right of the entrance hall lies the drawing room, which is distinguished by an open fireplace with a marble surround and a large bay window that offers views over the front courtyard. An internal doorway opens into a sunroom, which is positioned to bask in the morning sun and enjoys superb views across the gardens.
Returning to the entrance hall and to the left is the formal dining room, which offers generous space for a large family dining table. The room is enhanced by an ornate marble fireplace surround, while also hosting a drinks cupboard and a connecting doorway leading to the rear of the property.
An opening leads to an inner hallway, which branches into two directions. To the right-hand side, there is a cloakroom and office, as well as a trades entrance and the former servants' staircase.
To the left-hand side, a doorway leads into a cosy morning room, which features an open fireplace with a brick surround.
Beyond this, another doorway provides access to a generously proportioned kitchen. The kitchen is laid with quarry floor tiles and is equipped with a range of bespoke timber floor and wall-mounted cabinets, complemented by contrasting work surfaces. Notable features of the kitchen include an electric Aga and original butcher's ceiling hooks.
A doorway at the far end of the kitchen opens into a utility room, which is complemented by an adjoining flower room and pantry. A secondary doorway leads to a walk-in larder, providing ample storage space. From there, a corridor extends to a wine cupboard, with a final connecting door leading into the dining room.

First floor
An oak staircase rises to a wide first floor landing, benefiting from exposed timber floorboards. At the far end of the landing is a square bay window, providing a scenic view of the front gardens.
Positioned at either end of the landing are two generously proportioned bedrooms, both enjoying an enviable outlook, with the right-hand bedroom having a Jack and Jill doorway which leads into one of the further bedrooms.
An inner hallway off the landing leads to a further bedroom, which features a box bay window providing far reaching views across the front garden and adjoining farmland.

Further along the landing is a further bedroom, cloak room and a family bathroom which hosts a cast iron roll top bath and basin.
Finally, a secondary staircase ascends to an additional landing, where two attic rooms are located. These rooms would be ideally suited as bedrooms and both feature impressive ceiling trusses, adding to their character and charm.

Gardens
A prominent feature of Wigfair Isaf is its idyllic gardens and grounds. These are thoughtfully divided into a blend of formal parkland gardens and serene, sheltered areas, offering a harmonious balance of open space and intimate, tranquil settings.
The gardens begin with a neatly laid lawn, which adjoins the driveway. This section of the garden is sporadically planted with a host of mature shrubberies and trees.
A gravel path sheltered by a pergola leads to the main area of garden. Immediately to the left, is a neatly laid patio adjoining the sunroom. The patio is positioned to enjoy enviable views across the gardens and provides a beautiful setting for alfresco dining.
The paths run the length of the garden passing 4 individual lawns, each of which are uniquely planted with a range of herbaceous plants and shrubs. The lawns are neatly bound by low-level box hedging.
As you progress along the path, a secluded area of lawn presents itself. Within this lawn is a timber summer house, which is used as a tool store.
The path then leads to a grass tennis court, enclosed by perimeter fencing. A timber pavilion overlooks the grass court, providing a sheltered seating area.
From this point, the garden transitions into a more woodland-inspired setting, referred to by the current owner as the "Fairy Glen". A variety of mature trees and wild garlic guide you towards a footbridge that spans a brook, which feeds into a sizeable pond within the grounds. A gateway offers access to a neighbouring field, which in turn leads to the River Elwy, where the property benefits from approximately one mile of single banked fishing rights. The River Elwy is one of the most productive sea trout fisheries in Wales, with regular catches of fish in the 5-10 lbs range. The river is also known as being a good spot for brown trout fishing, while also benefiting from annual runs of salmon and sea trout. Finally, a grass verge leads to a further footbridge which leads back to the main gardens and a Victorian style greenhouse.

Land
In addition to its enviable gardens, Wigfair Isaf benefits from a substantial paddock extending to approximately 7.47 acres, which is located to the front aspect. The land is laid to pasture throughout and is predominantly level. Bounded by a mix of mature hedging and stock proof fencing, the land is perfectly suited to equestrian use or grazing.
Access is granted to the land via independent gateways located directly off the lane and within the gardens.
