Set about a mile from Llanuwchllyn, this stone-built semi-detached cottage blends original character with recent modernisation. The open-plan ground floor features exposed beams, a brick fireplace with a new flue for the solid fuel stove, and a practical kitchen area. New oil-fired central heating, UPVC double glazing, new flooring and a complete rewire mean the property is ready to move into.
Outside there is a decent, largely grassed garden that provides privacy and room for potting, play or small-scale landscaping. The home sits in a quiet hamlet within Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park, offering peaceful countryside outlooks and easy access to rural walks and local streams. Broadband is reported fast and crime levels are very low.
Important practical points: drainage is to a septic tank and parking is on-street. An Article 4 Directive applies in the National Park — changing to a second home or short-term holiday let will require planning permission. The stone walls are traditional granite/whinstone and are assumed to have no cavity insulation, which may affect long-term energy performance. Overall, this is a compact two-bedroom cottage well suited to first-time buyers or those seeking a low-maintenance rural base with character.
