Set in the heart of the lower Conwy Valley, this Grade II listed former chapel offers striking Georgian features and generous, characterful rooms across two floors. Original arched sash windows, exposed beams, an inglenook with multi‑fuel burner and an AGA give the house a warm, historic feel while generous room proportions make the space feel airy and substantial.
Practical features include off‑road hardstanding parking, front and rear gardens with fruit trees and a greenhouse, and covered verandas for outdoor sitting. The property sits in Rowen village inside Snowdonia National Park, within easy reach of Conwy and Llandudno and popular local walks — a strong draw for buyers seeking countryside lifestyle and views.
Buyers should note material considerations: the Grade II listing will restrict alterations and can complicate repairs, and the solid granite walls are assumed uninsulated. Heating is by electric storage/night storage heaters, so running costs may be higher than modern systems. Broadband is average and the wider area shows higher deprivation measures, though crime levels are low and mobile signal is excellent.
This home will suit someone who values historic character and spacious, flexible rooms and who is comfortable with the limitations and responsibilities of a listed rural property. There is clear scope to update services and insulation where permitted, offering potential to improve comfort and reduce running costs subject to listed‑building consent.
