Llysfaen Road, Old Colwyn, LL29

Occupying a generous plot, this charming three-bedroom home perfectly blends character features with modern living, complemented by a substantial detached log cabin offering exceptional versatility. Complete with its own bathroom and boiler, the cabin is ideal for use as an Airbnb, home office, studio, guest accommodation, or teenage retreat, providing fantastic additional living space with endless potential.

Inside, the property offers spacious and flexible accommodation throughout, including a cosy living and dining area with a log-burning stove, an upgraded kitchen with oak worktops, a conservatory overlooking the gardens, and three well-proportioned double bedrooms featuring vaulted ceilings and exposed beams that enhance the home’s character and charm.

Externally, the property benefits from extensive driveway parking, wraparound lawned gardens, full planning permission for a two-storey extension, and no forward chain, making this a superb opportunity for buyers seeking a unique home with both immediate appeal and future potential.

The Tour

The entrance porch is wonderfully practical and refreshingly spacious, somewhere that comfortably absorbs coats, muddy boots, bags and the everyday clutter of family life before you step through into the main house.

To the front, both the living and dining rooms enjoy pleasant views across the gardens, with natural light pouring through the windows throughout the day. The living room centres around a feature fireplace with a brick hearth, heavy timber mantle and log-burning stove, creating exactly the sort of cosy focal point you’d hope for in a cottage home. A bay window with a built-in window seat provides a lovely spot to sit with a coffee or book, while discreet storage tucked beneath keeps things beautifully uncluttered.

The dining room flows naturally from the living space, making it ideal for entertaining or simply everyday family life. Wooden flooring runs underfoot, built-in cupboards provide useful storage, and French doors open directly onto the rear patio. Partially sheltered beneath a covered porch, this becomes an easy extension of the house during warmer months, ideal for long lunches, evening drinks or simply leaving the doors open and letting the garden become part of the home.

Moving through the hallway, the cottage character becomes even more apparent. Stone flooring and exposed stone walls create a wonderfully grounded atmosphere, while the kitchen balances rustic charm with practicality. A range of country-style base units are topped with solid oak work surfaces, complemented by a Belfast sink that feels perfectly at home within the space. There’s room for appliances without compromising the overall feel, and the textures throughout, timber, stone and soft lighting all work together beautifully.

There’s also practicality hidden away behind the charm. Beneath the stairs, generous storage space leads through to a utility area, keeping laundry and white goods neatly separate from the kitchen itself. Beyond, a small conservatory overlooks the rear gardens and offers another quiet corner to sit and unwind.

Upstairs, the landing is flooded with natural light thanks to three Velux windows, while exposed stonework reminds you once again of the home’s heritage. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and a feature stone wall combining to create a room full of warmth and personality. There’s ample room for a large double bed and accompanying furniture without the space ever feeling crowded.

Bedrooms two and three continue the theme, both being comfortable double rooms, with one also benefitting from vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and stone detailing that give each room its own individual charm.

The family bathroom has been thoughtfully finished with full tiling, a sunken bath, low-level WC and wash hand basin set within a solid timber vanity unit. Subtle lighting, exposed beamwork and a heated towel rail elevate the room beyond the purely functional and give it the feel of a private retreat.

The Log Cabin

An especially appealing addition to the property is the detached log cabin — a remarkably versatile space that feels entirely separate from the main house whilst remaining closely connected to it.

French doors open into the principal room, where triple-aspect windows allow natural light to pour in throughout the day. Wood-effect flooring, neutral finishes and a radiator create a comfortable environment suitable for year-round use, whether as a home office, studio, gym, games room or guest accommodation.

The accompanying shower room is surprisingly luxurious, finished with gloss floor tiles, a walk-in shower, contemporary sink unit and heated towel rail, while a separate sauna adds an unexpected touch of indulgence. The cabin also benefits from its own independent boiler system, housed within a dedicated storage and boiler room, allowing the space to operate almost as a self-contained retreat.

The Exterior

The grounds here are every bit as impressive as the house itself. Positioned centrally within the plot, the property enjoys gardens that wrap around the home, creating a wonderful sense of openness and separation from neighbouring properties.

To the rear, the large lawned garden offers plenty of room for children to play, summer gatherings or simply enjoying the surrounding greenery. Mature trees and established borders soften the edges beautifully, while several paved seating areas allow you to follow the sun throughout the day.

The extensive gravel driveway provides more parking than most buyers are ever likely to require, making the property particularly well suited to larger families, visiting guests or those with multiple vehicles.

An enclosed seating area connects naturally to the log cabin and further enhances the flexibility of the outside space. Whether you envision working from home, creating a private gym, hobby room or entertaining area, the possibilities here feel genuinely endless.

Completing the picture is an additional storage shed tucked neatly to the rear of the garden, another practical addition to an already exceptionally versatile home.
