Pentre Felin is a substantial Grade II listed 17th‑century former corn mill converted into a striking three‑storey family house. The property retains original mill features, exposed beams and stonework, and offers generous room sizes across approximately 2,064 sq ft. Its large plot, attractive courtyard parking and elevated countryside views create a secluded rural retreat with strong character.
The layout provides flexibility: five bedrooms (three en‑suite), multiple reception rooms, a large kitchen/dining area and utility. It formerly operated as a successful bed & breakfast and could be re‑used as a holiday let or subdivided into two units subject to listed‑building and planning constraints. Fast broadband and proximity to Bodnant Gardens, Snowdonia and Conwy add practical appeal for holiday letting or commuting to nearby towns.
Important practical points are clear and significant. The Grade II listing means any alterations will require consent and may limit redevelopment options. Heating is LPG and drainage is shared private system; these, plus the property’s age, suggest likely ongoing maintenance and higher running costs. Council Tax Band F is expensive. The site sits in a remote hamlet with average mobile signal and very low local services, so it suits buyers seeking privacy rather than urban convenience.
This is best for buyers who value historic character, large outdoor space and flexible accommodation — families, holiday‑let investors or purchasers prepared for the responsibilities of listed ownership and rural servicing. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, original features and the countryside setting.
