Property description

Situated in a beautiful countryside setting, a character detached residence (a converted mill) together with a large detached stone garage all set in approximately three quarters of an acre of grounds comprising small paddock, mostly lawned gardens and a driveway providing ample parking. The property was acquired from the Glynllifon Estate in 1974 and then developed by the present owners with the focus on creating a spacious and comfortable home whilst carefully retaining the inherent character and charming original features to include the attractive pointed stone facade. Benefiting from Upvc double glazing and oil fired central heating, the accommodation briefly comprises - Reception hall with snug/study off, boiler room, store room and a magnificent triple aspect lounge with a 19 ft high apex ceiling and feature fireplace. To the lower ground floor, there is the dining room which is open plan to the fitted kitchen/breakfast room with a built-in oven & hob. Two of the bedrooms are also located on the lower ground floor together with the family bathroom. To the first floor, there is the master bedroom and the en-suite bathroom and a plumbed-in over bath shower. Please note that the first floor living area could easily be extended over the lounge creating a further 2 to 3 bedrooms (subject to building regulations approval). It is also worth noting that the 27' x 18' detached stone garage (formerly housed the mill workings) offers tremendous scope to convert into a holiday let unit, a studio/workshop or a home office (subject to local authority consent).
