Bronwen Terrace, Harlech

Straight out of the pages of a magazine with truly outstanding views of Cardigan Bay, Harlech Castle and the Llyn Peninsula this stylish and elegant recently EXTENSIVELY RENOVATED late Victorian townhouse really does stand out from the crowd.

This charming three storey home is one of eight properties which form this iconic row of Victorian houses. It is nestled on the coastal facing slopes on one of the oldest hills in Harlech, known as Twtil in the pretty town of Harlech with the Medieval castle to one side and far reaching, uninterrupted coastal and mountain views to the front.

Whilst retaining its period charm and features, the current owners have carried out a complete renovation from top to bottom with a resulting high end finish set within a fully restored property. Period features abound including high ceilings, coving, deep skirting boards, fireplaces and the original staircase.

Sympathetically modernised and beautifully presented, the spacious, well planned and well proportioned accommodation is set over three floors with contemporary bathrooms on each; four large bedrooms, an open plan lounge/diner with bay window to the front and log burning stove, and a spacious breakfast kitchen plus utility. All of the front facing rooms have breathtaking views.

A west facing terrace to the front provides a seating area from which to enjoy the breath taking panorama. There is a further courtyard to the rear and off road parking is possible. We recommend WATCHING THE VIDEO to fully appreciate the quality and style of accommodation on offer and the unique location of the property complete with its outstanding views.
