Charming Extended Cottage in a Tranquil Rural Setting – Just 1 Mile from Abersoch.

Tucked away in a peaceful rural haven, this delightful two-bedroom semi-detached cottage enjoys a beautifully secluded position set within approximately 0.52 acres of mature gardens and grass meadow. Lovingly extended and sympathetically restored, the cottage blends original charm with thoughtful modern touches, all while offering far-reaching countryside views towards Cardigan Bay and Snowdonia.

Currently used as a holiday home, the cottage is accessed via a winding country lane, just a mile from the bustling heart of Abersoch, the property promises the best of both worlds – tranquil living with village life close at hand.

Step inside via a side entrance into a spacious kitchen and dining area, where dual aspect windows, pine-fronted cupboards, and a white tiled floor create a bright and welcoming space. The lower-level dining room features fitted storage, display shelving, and a beamed ceiling, flowing into a handy utility area with a quarry-tiled floor and shower cubicle. A hidden gem awaits just off the dining room – a tiny secluded courtyard (9’6” x 5’), perfect for a morning coffee or sunny afternoon escape.

An inner hallway leads to a bathroom, separate WC, and two double bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes and charming beam ceilings. The entire interior was thoughtfully redesigned by a family member – a qualified architect – with a clear passion for preserving the cottage’s original character, including hardwood-framed windows, pine internal doors with matching architraves, and exposed beams throughout.

A staircase rises from the dining area to a splendid living room with vaulted ceilings, exposed rafters, and a cast iron wood-burning stove. Double doors open onto a small east facing balcony showcasing those delightful sunrises and views across open countryside and towards the sea and Snowdonia mountain range.

Externally, there’s generous gravelled parking for several vehicles or even a boat. The gardens are mature and well-tended outside the kitchen, offering a lovely al fresco dining space. This leads to a rear paddock currently grazed and home to an older static caravan. This offers excellent potential for replacement with a modern mobile home, shepherd’s hut, or similar – subject to the necessary consents – making it ideal for those seeking further accommodation, guest space, or a home office with a view.

A rare opportunity to own a character-filled retreat in one of the area’s most desirable locations – with scope to enhance and expand.
