Description

Bryn Mawr is an impressive, detached Grade II Listed home offering three bedrooms, built in traditional stone beneath a slate roof.

Steeped in history and forming part of the local Quaker Trail, the property occupies an elevated setting in the foothills of the Cader Idris mountain range, commanding attractive views across the town below.

While the house now requires a programme of refurbishment, it retains a wealth of charming original features, including exposed timber beams, striking inglenook fireplaces and slate flagstone flooring.

The accommodation is entered through a substantial front door into a generous sitting room with an impressive inglenook fireplace. From here, there is access to a second sitting room and the kitchen. An original stone staircase rises from the main sitting room to the first-floor landing, where on the half landing a door previously provided access to the rear garden, this is not in use and could be reinstated. The first floor comprises three bedrooms, two of which share a Jack and Jill bathroom, in addition to a separate family bathroom. A staircase from the landing leads up to the attic room, which subject to the necessary planning/listed building consents, could potentially be utilised as accommodation.

Externally, the property is approached from the lane via a rough track suitable for four-wheel-drive vehicles. The gardens extend to approximately 0.38 acres and include a front driveway, a selection of small stone outbuildings, and terraced garden areas.

The placing of Bryn Mawr on the market presents a rare opportunity to acquire a property of significant local historical interest, and early viewing is strongly advised.

Outside

The property is accessed via a track owned by a neighbouring landowner. This rutted track can only be used by a four-wheel-drive vehicle with adequate ground clearance.

The garden is enclosed and features a gateway from the track leading into the property boundary. It includes mature trees and established shrubbery, and benefits from excellent views over the surrounding countryside and towards the town of Dolgellau. The garden would now benefit from some landscaping to further enhance its potential.

Within the grounds there is a stone outbuilding that houses the water filtration system, along with a summer house.
