Property description

Dating back to the 1870‘s, this charming 2 bedroomed detached cottage with stable front door is set within a large plot, with a picturesque brook running through the centre of the beautifully landscaped and well presented gardens. It is said that the cottage was named ‘Burnside‘ by its original Scottish owner as ‘Burn‘ is the Scottish word for brook. It has since been updated by the previous owners with a new Welsh Slate roof, roof insulation, damp course, double glazed windows throughout. Planning permission was granted in 2007 for the double garage which is now complete and for a first floor extension to the cottage which although this planning has since expired, it demonstrates the further potential of this property. The large driveway offers ample parking for multiple vehicles and the large double garage with 2 sets of glazed timber doors has full mains electrics. With footings of 3 metres, the garage offers the potential of a first floor extension to further extend the living quarters of the cottage. Situated just outside the village of Treuddyn, this property benefits from beautiful open views whilst being close enough to the village for use of its basic amenities. Also, being located along the A5104 which is on a bus route, the road is always gritted and ploughed so should the winter snow descend, the snow remains a feature and not a hindrance to everyday life and work.Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the size, feel and potential of this unique property.

From the driveway there 2 slate roofed follies leading to the large landscaped gardens which consist of a lower, middle and upper section, each offering an individual feel & function. The lower garden is predominantly laid to lawn with an abundance of flowers, evergreen shrubs and grasses with a high stone wall providing privacy to the boundary. This part of the garden enjoys the morning and early afternoon sunshine.Crossing the feature brook which idles its way through the centre of the garden, leads you to the central pathway, with a choice of two sets of steps at either end of the large Indian stone patio, edged in railway sleepers and slate chippings, bordered by solid timber fencing. This is of significant size and benefits from all day sunshine and is therefore perfectly suited to the growing trend of living and entertaining outdoors.
