A charming two-bedroom stone cottage on the edge of Dolwyddelan, ideal as a cosy village hideaway or first home. The ground floor is open plan, with exposed beams and an inglenook-style fireplace housing a log-burning stove that creates instant character and warmth. Double-glazed windows and well-presented bespoke kitchen units give the interior a comfortable, lived-in feel.
Outside, a small forecourt and an enclosed rear garden with a fuel-store shed provide private outdoor space for seating and storage. The location sits within Snowdonia National Park boundaries, close to local walks, the village shop, pub and railway station — strong conveniences for a rural setting.
Practical points to note: the house is compact (about 431 sq ft) with relatively low ceilings and small rooms, so it suits a single occupant, couple or small family rather than those needing larger living space. Heating is by electric storage heaters and other electric units; mains services are connected. The stone walls are as-built granite/whinstone with assumed no cavity insulation, which may affect heating costs and future upgrade considerations.
Parking is available off-street but linked to land not in the property’s ownership and may carry a nominal cost — clarify ownership/terms before purchase. Broadband speeds are slow despite excellent mobile signal. Council tax is modest (Band B), and there is no flooding risk recorded.
Overall, this is a well-presented period cottage that offers genuine rural character and convenient village access. It will particularly suit buyers seeking a compact, characterful home in Snowdonia who are prepared for modest room sizes and potential energy-efficiency upgrades.
