Description
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a significant and historic property which was formerly attached to the Glynllifon Estate. The property includes a very attractive and fine example of a Walled Garden, Gardener’s Cottage, Machinery Workshop and Palm House (all Grade II Listed) which, according to the listing documentation dates 1824, some of it perhaps originating slightly earlier.
The property is located close to the entrance of the park, adjacent to a further education agricultural college. The entire offering covers some 2.3 acres enclosed within a stone-built wall of some 12ft and benefiting from 3 arched and gated entrances.
The Gardener’s Cottage is an attractive character stone-built cottage approached via two distinct archways, this three-bedroom cottage has been sympathetically modernised and is now served by an oil-fired central heating system.
The Machinery Workshop is a group of former agricultural buildings in a courtyard setting which has, in more recent times been utilised by the neighbouring agricultural college as an engineering facility. These units, subject to relevant consents offer good potential for a variety of commercial or retail uses and comprise of the main vaulted workshop and a series of large rooms and stores over two storeys which surrounding a central courtyard.
The Palm House, originally built to accommodate a wide range of exotic plants is a stone-built unit with good height, offering potential to restore or convert to residential accommodation (again, subject to consents).
The Kitchen Garden and main Walled Garden whilst overgrown, still provide evidence of their working past with numerous fruit trees and dilapidated fruit houses, potting sheds, and nurseries.
The property also offers various outbuildings and garden areas. We are of the opinion that there is enormous scope to re-invent and re-purpose this property to suit several uses perhaps as a commercial horticulture business, wood/metal and crafts workshops or holiday accommodation. Any venture would require consulting the local Gwynedd planning department.
Location
The Glynllifon Estate is situated south of the main historic town of Caernarfon just off the main A499 Pwllheli/Caernarfon trunk road and just a short distance from the new Caernarfon by-pass, allowing rapid access to the A55 Expressway, the city of Bangor and Isle of Anglesey. The park is just some 2 miles from a stunning stretch of beach located at Dinas Dinlle and enjoys the backdrop of the Eryri National Park.
