Period character, huge garden, near beaches — renovation required.
Grade II listed externally — restrictions on alterations
Tan Y Buarth is a rare, characterful home formed from four former cottages, set in a very large, mature garden with woodland and far-reaching sea views from the bottom of the plot. The house is rich in original features—exposed stone, inglenook fireplaces, ceiling beams and a vaulted lounge—creating a distinctive, cosy atmosphere ideal for family life or a creative household.
The layout is highly flexible: currently three bedrooms with an office/snug and multiple reception rooms, offering scope for reconfiguration or to create additional sleeping accommodation. The garden is a standout asset with fruit trees, raised beds, sheltered seating areas and bluebell woodland; it’s private and spacious enough for outdoor living, growing produce, and parking larger vehicles (caravan, motorhome or boat).
Please note this is a Grade II listed property with external listing implications and it requires renovation and modernisation in parts. There is one bathroom only and some rooms have low ceilings and smaller windows consistent with historic stone cottages. Council tax is above average and the property sits within Snowdonia National Park, which will affect permitted works and planning.
For buyers seeking a distinctive, rural home close to coastline and beaches, Tan Y Buarth offers a compelling canvas: substantial outdoor space, standout period character and versatile interiors. It will most appeal to those prepared to carry out sympathetic refurbishment within the constraints of listed status to unlock the property’s full potential.
