Farchynys Cottage,BARMOUTH,LL42 1TN
LL42 1TN
2 bed 1 bath Cottage
Characterful two-bedroom with parking and courtyard, ideal for holiday income.
Traditional stone barn conversion with exposed beams and vaulted sitting room
Farchynys Court Cottage is a traditional stone barn conversion tucked into a small cluster of properties in Bontddu, inside Snowdonia National Park. The two-bedroom layout includes a vaulted sitting room with exposed beams and a kitchen/dining room, arranged for comfortable year-round living or continued holiday-let operation under existing Article 4 provisions. The property benefits from off-street parking and a spacious, low-maintenance courtyard with far-reaching countryside views.
The cottage has strong location appeal: roughly equidistant from Barmouth’s coast and Dolgellau’s market amenities, with easy access to the Mawddach Estuary and local walking trails. Broadband speeds are reported fast and there is no identified flood risk, supporting both holiday and permanent use.
Buyers should note some clear maintenance and efficiency drawbacks. The EPC is currently rated E and internal decor and fittings are dated, so updating and possible energy improvements will be required. The area is classified as very deprived and mobile signal is only average — factors that may affect long-term rental demand. Also check the council tax position: records reference both an exemption and above-average charges, so confirm banding with the local authority before purchase.
Overall this freehold cottage offers character, countryside views and flexible use (home or holiday let) but will reward buyers willing to invest in modernization and energy upgrades.
