Tyn y Merddyn is a substantial, stone-built family home set back from the road on the edge of Betws-y-Coed within Snowdonia National Park. The house combines traditional character — inglenook fireplace, stone walls and high ceilings — with recent improvements including a largely re-modelled layout, modern fitted kitchen, luxury four-piece bathroom and a fairly new gas boiler. The generous lounge with French doors opens onto a sun terrace and a large, private garden ideal for family life and outdoor entertaining.
The house sits on a large plot with decorative gravelled driveway and off-street parking for several vehicles, plus a powered stone workshop and timber sheds. It is conveniently located within easy walking distance of the village school, doctor’s surgery and centre, making daily routines straightforward for families. Fibre broadband and excellent mobile signal support home working and connectivity.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: the property’s original granite or whinstone walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation, so further insulation work may be needed for improved thermal efficiency. Council tax is noted as expensive and the wider area records higher deprivation metrics. The home is offered freehold and chain free, with mains services connected and the gas boiler around three years old.
This detached period cottage will suit a family seeking village life within an outstanding landscape, buyers wanting a roomy, characterful home with scope to personalise, or those seeking a well-appointed primary residence near outdoor recreation. Immediate occupation is possible without an onward chain, though prospective purchasers should factor in potential insulation or energy-efficiency upgrades.
