Secluded rural retreat with garden and half-acre plot.
Panoramic valley and Rhinog Mountain views
Glyn Yr Aur is a single-storey converted stone cottage set on about half an acre with uninterrupted views across the valley to the Rhinog Mountains. The open-plan living, dining and kitchen area is focused on a large picture window and a Charnwood multi-fuel stove, creating a cosy, light-filled living space. Grounds include a driveway and patio, lawned rear garden, former paddock parcel, lean-to greenhouse and a useful attached outbuilding.
Practical upgrades include a new Worcester gas boiler, Hive control, Starlink broadband and a UV filtration unit for the shared spring water supply. The property has off-street parking, low council tax (Band B) and sits at the end of a council-maintained no-through road in the Snowdonia National Park — peaceful but with neighbours nearby and Dolgellau about 10 miles away for shops and services.
Notable constraints are the compact footprint (circa 689 sq ft) and low-to-medium ceilings typical of a converted stone building. The EPC is poor (current rating F), and mobile signal/broadband speeds are limited locally despite Starlink availability. Water and septic arrangements are shared with the neighbour and should be understood before purchase.
This cottage will suit someone seeking a manageable, characterful countryside retreat with exceptional mountain views rather than a large formal garden or urban-level connectivity. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the setting and scope for sensible energy improvements.
