This substantial period mid-terrace offers unexpectedly generous accommodation across four usable levels, including a fully self-contained basement annexe with an impressive cinema room. The house provides flexible living for families or multi-generational use: 4–5 bedrooms, two principal bathrooms plus an en-suite, a contemporary kitchen, and separate reception rooms. The rear enjoys a sunny south-facing aspect with river and woodland views, a decked sun terrace, low-maintenance patio and a serviced glamping pod that could provide extra income or guest space.
Practical comforts include mains gas central heating and uPVC double glazing, plus a spacious off-street parking area accessed from the rear service lane. The present owners have undertaken notable modernisations to the kitchen, principal bathroom and the cinema room, and the property is presented ready for immediate occupation in many areas.
Important facts and considerations: the building dates from before 1900 with granite or whinstone walls likely uninsulated as built, so buyers should factor potential upgrading or insulation work into future budgets. The terrace has a narrow frontage onto the High Street with the house opening directly onto the pavement. The surrounding community is classified as having higher deprivation levels and a local economy of primary-sector workers; local amenities are good but buyers seeking a more affluent area should note the wider socio-economic indicators.
Overall this is a characterful, versatile house that genuinely offers more than its street elevation suggests — ideal for growing families, buyers wanting ancillary rental potential, or those seeking a base close to Eryri/Snowdonia. A viewing is recommended to appreciate the basement annexe, layout and outlook fully.
