Passing through the streets of Conwy, you won’t fail to notice this most fascinating and intriguing Grade II* Listed Residence situated within the walled section of the town and just a short walk from the impressive castle and historic quayside, one of only two known Medieval buildings within the Town Walls. The building of the original single storey house was dendrochronologically dated to the winter of 1441-42, retaining its overall 16th century form with 18th century addition and alteration and listed for its group value within the historical townscape.

Between 2008 and 2015, the property was completely and comprehensively gutted and renovated with full Listed Building and planning consents. The present owner who oversaw the undoubtedly mammoth task, had an unswerving vision and an obvious love of historic buildings and their heritage.

The renovation, from what was effectively a shell, has transformed the property into a habitable dwelling of immense charm and character while incorporating contemporary appointments where required, thereby creating a home which is fit for the 21st century without compromising its historical references. Adding to its appeal is that for the ultimate in convenience, everything you could possibly need on a day to day basis is within walking distance.

The renovation displays a highly individual and visionary taste in certain quarters, extravagant in some respects, yet purposely made to create a home that’s not short on flair, glamour and presence. The attention to detail and its general presentation is quite remarkable. Wherever you look there is always something to pique your interest. You’ll be pleasantly surprised just how quiet and tranquil the interior is too, helped in part by secondary glazing and a third layer of decorative stained glass which adds to its appeal.

Central heating was also installed during the renovation incorporating a dual boiler system, ensuring the property is warm and well-served with hot water. There are numerous designer radiators dotted throughout the dwelling. The kitchen offers a minimalist appeal with solid granite worksurfaces and a host of fitted appliances. Of course, there’s also a cellar and even an attic room – always useful for general storage purposes.

Complementing the interior is a gem of a walled garden located to the rear, a welcome surprise considering its central position within the town. The furthest boundary wall is in fact a section of original town wall whereby wide steps lead up to its uppermost section from where there are superb views of Conwy quay and estuary with its numerous sailing vessels with the outline of Deganwy Vardre ‘Castle’ on the far shoreline. Within the garden is an attached former Bakehouse outbuilding which functions today as a garage, having a high-pitched ceiling and original inglenook fireplace (plus a WC). Vehicular access if via a gated passageway from Castle Street – this provides limited access purely for narrow vehicles (please see ‘Agents Note’ below for additional information).

Within the walled castle town of Conwy you’ll find a whole host of useful amenities, goods and services to include two GP surgeries, dentist, optician, chemist, Post Office, grocer’s, bakeries, butcher, fish shop, numerous clothes shops and shoe shop amongst others. There’s a wide range of restaurants/cafes/bars; quayside and marine walk, park with sports facilities, playground and woodland walks all in easy walking distance. Conwy is of course known for its magnificent 13th century castle (built by Edward I in a barely believable four years!). Conwy also has a mainline railway station providing easy links to Holyhead, Bangor and indeed London whilst the A55 expressway provides all the essential transport links. This remarkable location is where the rugged hillsides of Eryri/Snowdonia tumble into the sea. In terms of recreation and places of interest locally, there is neighbouring Deganwy with its marina and maritime facilities, a multi-plex cinema complex in Llandudno Junction, the bustling Victorian resort of Llandudno with Victorian pier, theatre and countless other attractions.

Wrth fynd trwy strydoedd Conwy, ni fyddwch yn methu a sylwi ar y Preswylfa Rhestredig Gradd II* hynod ddiddorol hon sydd wedi'i lleoli o fewn rhan furiog y dref a dim ond taith gerdded fer o'r castell trawiadol a'r cei hanesyddol, un o ddau yn unig y gwyddys amdanynt o adeiladau Canoloesol o fewn i muriau’r Dref. Dyddiwyd adeiladu'r ty unllawr gwreiddiol yn ddendrocronolegol i aeaf 1441-42, gan gadw ei ffurf gyffredinol o'r 16eg ganrif gydag ychwanegiad a newidiad o'r 18fed ganrif a'i restru oherwydd ei werth grwp o fewn y treflun hanesyddol.

Rhwng 2008 a 2015, cafodd yr eiddo ei ddiberfeddu a'i adnewyddu'n llwyr gyda chaniatad Adeilad Rhestredig a chaniatad cynllunio. Roedd gan y perchennog presennol a oruchwyliodd y dasg ddiamheuol enfawr, weledigaeth ddiwyro a chariad amlwg at adeiladau hanesyddol a'u treftadaeth.

Mae'r adnewyddiad, o'r hyn a oedd i bob pwrpas yn gragen, wedi trawsnewid yr eiddo yn annedd gyfanheddol o swyn a chymeriad aruthrol tra'n ymgorffori penodiadau cyfoes lle bo angen, a thrwy hynny greu cartref sy'n addas ar gyfer yr 21ain ganrif heb gyfaddawdu ar ei gyfeiriadau hanesyddol. Yn ychwanegol at ei apel, er hwylustod yn y pen draw, mae popeth y gallech fod ei angen o ddydd i ddydd o fewn pellter cerdded.

Mae’r adnewyddiad yn dangos chwaeth hynod unigol a gweledigaethol mewn rhai mannau, yn afradlon mewn rhai agweddau, ond eto wedi’i wneud yn bwrpasol i greu cartref nad yw’n brin o ddawn, hudoliaeth a phresenoldeb. Mae'r sylw i fanylion a'i gyflwyniad cyffredinol yn eithaf rhyfeddol. Ble bynnag yr edrychwch, mae rhywbeth i ennyn eich diddordeb bob amser. Byddwch yn synnu ar yr ochr orau pa mor dawel a thawel yw'r tu mewn hefyd, wedi'i helpu'n rhannol gan wydr eilaidd a thrydedd haen o wydr lliw addurniadol sy'n ychwanegu at ei apel.

Gosodwyd gwres canolog hefyd yn ystod y gwaith adnewyddu gan gynnwys system boeler ddeuol, gan sicrhau bod yr eiddo'n gynnes ac wedi'i wasanaethu'n dda a dwr poeth. Mae nifer o reiddiaduron dylunwyr wedi'u gwasgaru ledled yr annedd. Mae'r gegin yn cynnig apel finimalaidd gydag arwynebau gwaith gwenithfaen solet a llu o offer wedi'u gosod. Wrth gwrs, mae yna hefyd seler a hyd yn oed ystafell atig - bob amser yn ddefnyddiol at ddibenion storio cyffredinol.

I gyd-fynd a'r tu mewn mae perl o ardd furiog yn y cefn, syrpreis i'w groesawu o ystyried ei leoliad canolog yn y dref. Mewn gwirionedd mae'r wal derfyn bellaf yn rhan o wal wreiddiol y dref lle mae grisiau llydan yn arwain i fyny at ei rhan uchaf o ble mae golygfeydd gwych o gei ac aber Conwy gyda'i longau hwylio niferus gydag amlinelliad o 'Gastell' Deganwy Vardre ar y pellaf traethlin. O fewn yr ardd mae hen adeilad allan Popty cysylltiedig sy'n gweithredu heddiw fel garej, gyda nenfwd uchel a lle tan inglenook gwreiddiol (a thoiled). Mynediad i gerbydau trwy dramwyfa a giat o Stryd y Castell – mae hyn yn darparu mynediad cyfyngedig ar gyfer cerbydau cul yn unig (gweler ‘Nodyn Asiantau’ isod am wybodaeth ychwanegol).

O fewn tref gastell gaerog Conwy fe welwch lu o amwynderau, nwyddau a gwasanaethau defnyddiol gan gynnwys dwy feddygfa, deintydd, optegydd, fferyllydd, Swyddfa Bost, groser, poptai, cigydd, siop bysgod, nifer o siopau dillad ac esgidiau ymhlith eraill. Mae amrywiaeth eang o fwytai/caffis/bariau; taith gerdded ar lan y cei a'r mor, parc gyda chyfleusterau chwaraeon, maes chwarae a llwybrau trwy'r coetir i gyd o fewn pellter cerdded hawdd. Mae Conwy wrth gwrs yn adnabyddus am ei chastell godidog o'r 13eg ganrif (a adeiladwyd gan Edward i mewn pedair blynedd prin!). Mae gan Gonwy hefyd brif orsaf reilffordd sy'n darparu cysylltiadau hawdd a Chaergybi, Bangor ac yn wir Llundain tra bod gwibffordd yr A55 yn darparu'r holl gysylltiadau trafnidiaeth hanfodol. Y lleoliad hynod hwn yw lle mae llethrau garw Eryri yn cwympo i’r mor. O ran hamdden a mannau o ddiddordeb yn lleol, mae Deganwy gerllaw gyda’i farina a’i gyfleusterau morwrol, canolfan sinema aml-plex yng Nghyffordd Llandudno, tref wyliau Fictoraidd brysur Llandudno gyda phier Fictoraidd, theatr ac atyniadau di-ri eraill.
