Set on an extensive plot of roughly two acres on the Llyn Peninsula, this detached three-bedroom farmhouse offers rare panoramic views over the Irish Sea and direct access to the coastal path. Substantial outbuildings and a large barn provide versatile scope for workshops, storage or conversion (subject to planning). Existing renewable kit—solar panels and an air source heat pump—gives a useful head start on energy efficiency.
The house is a genuine refurbishment project. Constructed before 1900 in traditional granite/whinstone with double glazing installed pre-2002, walls are likely uninsulated and the current heating relies on room heaters and smokeless fuel. There is one bathroom and services include mains water and electricity with a septic tank. Broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is only average, reflecting the remote, hamlet location.
This property will suit buyers seeking a coastal renovation with space — families wanting privacy, lifestyle purchasers building a bespoke home, or investors with planning appetite. The secluded setting and large plot are exceptional assets, but expect substantial renovation, insulation and heating upgrades, plus planning and site-work costs for any outbuilding conversions.
Practical considerations are clear and important: council tax is above average (Band E), the site sits in a very deprived rural area which may affect resale timescales, and some services (septic tank, smokeless fuel heating) will require attention. For the right buyer, this is a rare opportunity to create a distinctive, energy-improved coastal property with ample land and panoramic sea views.
