Open-plan lounge/diner, wood-burning STUV stove, vaulted ceiling
Ground-floor double bedroom and shower room; practical ground-floor living

Tucked on the outskirts of Llangrannog, this detached 1846 former navigation school offers striking valley and distant sea views just a short walk from the beach. The house retains strong period character — exposed stone walls, a vaulted lounge with a picture gable and a bespoke washbasin set on an old school desk — and includes a ground-floor bedroom and shower room for flexible living.
The open-plan lounge/diner with a STUV wood-burning stove creates a warm, sociable heart to the home, while two first-floor double bedrooms take advantage of the coastal outlook. Practical features include off-street parking for 2–3 cars, a boot/utility room and patios for outside seating overlooking the valley.
Buyers should note this is an older, solid stone property with double glazing fitted before 2002 and assumed uninsulated granite walls — energy efficiency is poor (Energy Rating G) and heating is electric with underfloor heating on the ground floor. Broadband speeds are slow and the property uses private drainage; these running costs and service limitations are important for budget planning.
There are also some small bats in the attic (seller-declared), and the original bell is no longer present in the bell tower. For someone seeking a character coastal cottage with renovation potential and practical beach access, this property presents a rare historical home in a peaceful setting — but expect energy upgrades and targeted improvements to bring running costs and comfort up to modern standards.
