Llanaber, Barmouth, LL42

This exceptional 5 bedroom detached Victorian Villa enjoys a prime position facing the coast, offering stunning sea views from many rooms and a picturesque backdrop of fields and hills.

 Dryll Y Car was built in 1890, believed to have been commissioned for a prominent Barmouth banker. The size and grandeur of the rooms and the superb location in close proximity of Barmouth but away from the hustle and bustle indicate the status of its first owner. 

 A wealth of character and traditional features, from ornate cornicing and high ceilings and Minton floors, all add a sense of history and warmth to every corner.

 The ground floor offers a welcoming entrance hall leading to three versatile reception rooms, each with their own unique period details, providing ample space for entertaining, relaxing, or family gatherings.  A handy utility room, dedicated home office and generous storage room keep life organised.

 The property features three contemporary bathrooms, including two en-suites one with walk-in shower, one of which serves a generously proportioned ground floor bedroom, making this home particularly suitable for those with reduced mobility or requiring flexible living arrangements. The property is fully double glazed and benefits from oil fired central heating, ensuring comfort throughout the seasons.

 Upstairs, the four additional double bedrooms continue the theme of generous proportions each with either views towards the coast or rolling countryside.

 The principal suite is a true retreat, boasting an en-suite shower room and large bay window with seating areas facing the coastal views.

 Plentiful driveway parking is available to the front and side, with space for multiple cars, vans, or even a boat. The property sits within approximately 0.3 acres of grounds, designed for low maintenance and year-round enjoyment, while the immediate surroundings offer a tranquil yet accessible setting.

 Location is key, and here you are just minutes’ walk from the sandy beach and the picturesque Welch Coastal Path, the villa is also within easy walking distance of the vibrant Barmouth resort, renowned for its array of shops, cafes, and leisure amenities, as well as excellent transport links by road and rail.
