Description

Bennar Fawr is an exceptional detached stone residence, occupying approximately 1.48 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds on the edge of the highly sought-after village of Dyffryn Ardudwy. Just a short stroll from the golden sands of Bennar Beach, this remarkable home offers a rare combination of history, privacy and coastal living.

Lovingly restored and sympathetically enhanced by the current owners, Bennar Fawr effortlessly combines its rich period character with the comforts and luxury of modern living. Extensive refurbishment has transformed the property into an elegant and versatile home.

Currently operating as a highly successful luxury holiday retreat, the property comfortably accommodates up to 24 guests and has established an enviable reputation as one of North Wales' premier coastal destinations. The generous accommodation, outstanding leisure facilities and superb location continue to attract discerning visitors, presenting an excellent opportunity for purchasers wishing to continue the thriving business. Equally, Bennar Fawr would make an outstanding private residence, an impressive multi-generational family home, or an exclusive retreat.

During the current owners' tenure, the property has undergone a comprehensive programme of refurbishment. Significant improvements include complete rewiring and replumbing, stylish décor and flooring throughout, the addition of luxurious leisure facilities including hot tubs and a sauna, together with the creation of an outstanding open-plan kitchen and dining room that forms the true heart of the home.

Designed with both family life and entertaining in mind, this spectacular space is flooded with natural light from extensive glazing overlooking the front and rear gardens. Beautifully appointed and exceptionally spacious, the kitchen combines elegant styling with practicality, providing the perfect setting for everything from everyday family meals to large celebrations and catered gatherings.

The accommodation extends to ten beautifully presented bedrooms, served by ten bath and shower rooms. Seven bedrooms benefit from en-suite facilities, two further bedrooms share a contemporary shower room, while the tenth bedroom enjoys exclusive use of a separate family bathroom. The versatile layout lends itself equally well to substantial family occupation or luxury guest accommodation.

The accommodation briefly comprises an inviting entrance hall with adjoining snug, an elegant sitting room, the magnificent kitchen and dining room, a ground floor bedroom suite, boiler room and useful cellar storage. The first floor offers a further reception room, conservatory and five bedrooms, while two separate staircases lead to the second floor, where four further bedrooms complete the extensive accommodation.

Outside, the grounds are every bit as impressive as the house itself. Extending to approximately 1.48 acres, the gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped to create a series of beautifully planted spaces that are both attractive and surprisingly manageable. Sweeping lawns, mature trees, colourful borders and captivating sea views combine to create an idyllic setting for relaxation and entertaining.

The impressive outdoor amenities include a summer house, a traditional stone outbuilding incorporating a sauna, and a sun terrace complete with two hot tubs. A variety of seating and dining terraces provide wonderful spaces for al fresco entertaining, while extensive private parking offers ample space for family and guests.

Properties of this calibre are seldom available. Combining extensive accommodation, mature grounds, leisure facilities and an enviable coastal setting within close proximity of the beach, Bennar Fawr presents a truly unique opportunity. Whether acquired as a magnificent family home, an exceptional multi-generational residence or a well-established hospitality business, it represents one of the area's most impressive period homes.
