Description

As far as locations go then, then they really don't get much more romantic as this!

A traditional Welsh stone 'longhouse', part of which dates from the early 17th century, which has been extended sympathetically and brought up to a beautiful standard by the current owners.

Standing in a majestic setting in approximately 4 acres of deciduous woodland on the lower slopes of the Moelwyns, the property is surrounded by waterfalls, mature gardens with lawn, herbaceous borders, a labyrinth and productive fruit trees. It offers spectacular views up and down the lush Vale of Ffestiniog, where the Afon Dwyryd River meanders to the sea.

The accommodation comprises 4 reception rooms, 4/5 bedrooms, 1 dressing room, 2 bathrooms, a downstairs WC and a fitted kitchen. A garden studio/bedroom with a veranda overlooks the lawn toward the distant peaks.

This well insulated property has 2 wood burning stoves and electric radiators. A private hydro-electric scheme, which does require restoration to full working order, would provide charging for an electric vehicle and, potentially, the export of electricity into the Grid.

Please note that an AML fee is chargeable to the buyer once an offer is accepted to cover the cost of carrying out the required identity and anti-money laundering checks. Once these checks have been completed, the fee cannot be refunded, even if the property purchase does not go ahead.
