A charming two-bedroom semi-detached cottage in a peaceful rural hamlet, Cefn Gryddyn retains much of its original character while offering practical modern upgrades. Re-fitted kitchen and Victorian-style bathroom complement parquet and slate floors, exposed beams and an Inglenook-style fireplace with a multi-fuel stove — features that create immediate warmth and country charm. Double glazing and an electric boiler with radiators give everyday comfort, while the detached single garage adds useful storage and parking.
The property sits on a very small plot and is best suited to buyers seeking low-maintenance grounds rather than extensive outdoor space. Built of traditional stone with presumed no wall insulation, the cottage may benefit from targeted improvements to thermal performance. Heating is electric-based, which can be more costly than mains gas alternatives — the multi-fuel stove helps reduce fuel bills seasonally.
Important planning note: since 1 September 2024 Gwynedd Council’s Article 4 direction means planning permission is required to use the property as a second home or for short-term holiday lets. The house is freehold, council tax Band C, has fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and sits in a very low-crime area within an agricultural community setting.
This home will suit buyers who value period character and a rural lifestyle — ideal for downsizers or those seeking a weekend retreat within easy reach of local towns. It presents a ready-to-enjoy cottage with straightforward scope for efficiency improvements and cosmetic personalization.
