Station Road, Llanberis, Caernarfon, Gwynedd, LL55

A rare opportunity to purchase a mixed-use freehold investment property.

This significant landmark building is a part of Llanberis’ history being the former railway station and the current gift shop and cafe business was established in 1978. The building is substantial, with the ground floor providing close to 5000 sq ft which includes retail areas, the café, storage, and staff facilities and an attached garage. To the first floor there is a very attractive self-contained 3-bedroom apartment. Externally, there are grassed areas and car parking with the site as a whole amounting to some 0.7 acres. This site located prominently and in a slightly elevated location on the A4086 tourist route is close to Llanberis Lake, the villages residential areas, the Snowdon railway, slate museum, and the main village car parking areas. We feel that the property offers enormous potential for a variety of uses (subject to planning consents) including a continuation of the existing use, convenience store, restaurant, conversion into several smaller self-contained commercial or residential units or complete redevelopment of the site for a residential or commercial use.

Location
Llanberis, at the foot of mount Snowdon, is a major tourist attraction with a strong cultural heritage based on its slate mining past and is surrounded by dramatic mountains, lakes, rivers, and woodland and yet is only a short drive from the beautiful coastline, Anglesey and the Llyn Peninsula. Two large lakes dissect the mountain range creating the Llanberis Pass, an area that offers rugged beauty and has created a major centre for outdoor activities including walking, mountaineering, climbing and mountain biking. The village is renowned for hosting international events including the Slateman Triathalon, the Snowdon Marathon and Snowdon Fell race. Llanberis is well located as a base for visiting the attractions in and around the Eryri National Park including Zip World, Bounce Below and the WHR. The historic town of Caernarfon lies approximately 8 miles distant with schools, leisure facilities and the world famous 13th century castle, and the university city of Bangor just a short distance further.
