A distinctive former chapel converted into a spacious family home, Capel Bethel combines strong period character with recent full renovation. Set over four floors, the property offers five bedrooms (optionally six), generous living space including a 27' open-plan lounge and a 26' kitchen/dining/living area, and a self-contained lower-ground annex with separate access—useful for a dependent relative or demonstrable rental income.
Externally the house sits on a large plot with off-street parking for several cars and lawned gardens. The solid granite walls, arched windows and high ceilings preserve historic charm while double glazing and a new LPG boiler provide modern comfort. Located in Snowdonia National Park in the village of Trawsfynydd, the setting is rural and peaceful with low local crime and no flood risk.
Important practical points: the home is currently run as a holiday let and Cyngor Gwynedd has served an Article 4 Direction requiring planning consent for changes between main residence, second home and short-term holiday let uses. Mobile and broadband are average for the area, heating runs on LPG (off-grid fuel), and the wider area records higher levels of deprivation — factors to consider for long-term occupation or letting. Overall, this newly renovated, character-rich property suits families or buyers seeking a unique country home with annex potential, but note the planning restrictions and rural service levels before committing.
