A delightful 4/5 Bedroomed Country Residence though to date from the 18th century, enjoying a most pleasant southerly aspect with far reaching views over the scenic Dwyryd Estuary and the mountains beyond, as pleasing an outlook as you could wish for.

Stentir is a delightful Country Residence though to date from the 18th century, enjoying a most pleasant southerly aspect with far reaching views over the scenic Dwyryd Estuary and the mountains beyond, a pleasing an outlook as you could wish for and offering 4/5 Bedrooms, you are assured of comfortable accommodation. Situated just outside Minffordd village, the property resides along a pretty country lane (no-through road) which leads directly to the edge of the scenic estuary. Due to its age and heritage this charming stone-built house retains many period features and yet has been extensively renovated in recent years, sympathetically and professionally extended to provide an enchanting modern home. Reluctantly, the current owners must now move on after 11 years for family reasons.

The front door entrance to Stentir is via an attractive enclosed porch leading to an inviting dual aspect sitting room focusing on the large and certainly impressive inglenook fireplace with log burner. A cosy study situated adjacent could also serve as a 5th bedroom if required. There are two service areas off the sitting room, a useful boot room with WC and store room – formerly a wetroom and easily reverted to such use.

An alternative entrance to the house is via a generous conservatory which serves as an additional reception/breakfast room and enjoys that southerly aspect and fine country views. From here we head to an open-plan kitchen and dining room separated by a peninsula and a range of integrated appliances to include: dual ovens, induction hob, extractor hood and dishwasher. This room also has a recently revealed fireplace, though not in use. Off the kitchen is a pantry with full-height shelving whilst a useful utility room offers further cabinets, sink unit and plumbing for washing machine.

On the first floor is a generous landing, a versatile space and useful as a reading area where from there’s access to four bedrooms, a bathroom and separate shower room, both newly modernised with under-floor heating and heated towel rails. The property comes fitted with double glazing (uPVC) and oil fired central heating.

Externally, the private mature garden is arranged as a lawn with flowerbed borders and a generous paved terrace, both level with the house and overlooking the larger garden below. This section of garden also provides a lawn and a wonderful array of mature plants, trees and shrubs. The property has three gates off the lane, one each to the front and rear gardens and a wide gate leading to the driveway providing ample off road parking. On the approach is a large garden shed. The gardens are walled, fenced and hedged to provide complete s

Despite the rural setting of the house, Porthmadog with its many shops and 3 supermarkets, is just a short drive away. This charming seaside town with its harbour, marina and heritage railways is reached via the Cob road link crossing the River Glaslyn estuary which affords stunningly beautiful panoramic views of the high peaks of Eryri on one side and the sea on the other.

Castell Deudraeth on the Portmeirion estate, is a pleasant 15-minute walk away (approx. or 5 minutes by car) serving high-end meals plus a bar. Portmeirion village is another 10 minutes beyond. Minffordd locals can buy an annual season ticket for £5. Of course, there are beautiful walks in several directions direct from the house including 4-5 minutes down to the Dwyryd estuary and many paths around the Portmeirion estate and its surroundings and alongside the Glaslyn estuary.
