Description
An attractive detached former farmhouse of considerable character, occupying an idyllic and wonderfully private rural setting close to the village of Penmachno within the Eryri National Park.
Tenure- Freehold- Council Tax- D EPC-TBA
Surrounded by open farmland with a wooded backdrop and far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside, the property offers an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a traditional country home with approximately 9.88 acres of land.
The land is arranged in three useful enclosures and is complemented by a range of outbuildings, making the property particularly appealing to those with equestrian, smallholding or lifestyle interests. A sweeping private approach leads to a generous gravelled parking and turning area, whilst established gardens surround the farmhouse.
The accommodation has been well maintained and retains an abundance of character, including exposed beams, deep-set windows and an impressive inglenook-style fireplace. Although perfectly habitable, the property would benefit from some modernisation and offers excellent scope for purchasers to create a truly individual rural home.
