Situated in a most pleasant rural position on the edge of the village of Llanllyfni, standing within its own generous plot measuring some 0.6 of an Acre is this remarkable Detached Residence thought to date from 1779 (according to the plaque above the front door), a superb example of the Georgian period, having been sympathetically modernised by the present owners in more recent times, providing a wonderful blend of old and new. The property most definitely retains its heritage, essential charm and character whilst catering handsomely for today’s busy lifestyle.

Ty Gwyn is essentially three dwellings in one, so some explanation might be in order. There’s the main dwelling itself which provides handsome and practical accommodation suitable for a growing family (4 bedrooms in this section), then there are two further fully self-contained dwellings attached, one known as IgamOgam (offering a further 4 bedrooms) and last but not least, Dowlais (1 bedroomed cottage), thereby offering prospective purchasers a whole raft of permutations to suit any particular requirements. Previous owners have in the past used the main dwelling as their home, utilising the two annexes’ as holiday accommodation, something which has proved most successful and is in fact what the current owners continue to do to great effect. Of course, the layout provides much flexibility should anyone wish to cater for extended family or such like – there are countless options worth exploring depending on your needs and circumstances.

The entire property is fitted with uPVC double glazing (with the exception of some entrance doors). Heating to the main dwelling is via solid fuel central heating plus additional electric heating with electric heating to the adjoining accommodation.

The current owners have made many improvements throughout all three dwellings to provide comfortable accommodation to be proud of. Bathrooms have been updated plus the addition of an en-suite, likewise kitchens whilst keeping a keen eye on the décor and general presentation throughout, providing a pleasing environment. The main dwelling offers immensely thick walls with an impressive inglenook to the lounge (with wood burner) whilst retaining its exposed A-frame beams to the first floor. The accommodation is currently split in two, essentially for the care of dependent parents who can enjoy their own independence, hence the two kitchens – it’s a layout which work well.

Next in line is the first annexe which offers its own unique appeal, the centre piece surely being the main living room with is generous dimensions, high pitched ceiling and wood burning stove. The mezzanine dining area above adds to its uniqueness. The kitchen resides on the first floor which is handy for accessing its south facing patio. Concluding the accommodation is the smaller of the two annexes’ with its more diminutive dimensions and yet it certainly punches well above its weight while it’s modern interior is pleasing on the eye.
Externally, as mentioned there’s plentiful off road parking to the front whilst each dwelling enjoys its own spacious garden to the rear, the majority of which is laid to lawn whilst having a variety of mature plants, shrubs and trees. There’s a purpose made outbuilding/gym, a vegetable plot and private seating/patio areas. The main dwelling also enjoys a further garden located along the westerly elevation, offering much privacy.

The larger neighbouring village of Penygroes is positioned just off the main thoroughfare of the A487 that links the towns of Caernarfon and Porthmadog making travel and commuting easy and convenient. The village is just a short distance from the Eryri/Snowdonia National Park and the delightful Nantlle Valley with direct access to the impressive south western slopes of Yr Wyddfa/Snowdon. The main shopping town of Caernarfon is only some 8 miles distant, situated on the banks of the Menai Strait and renowned for its impressive 13th century castle. With beautiful mountain and coastal scenery all encompassing, the area recommends itself for sure.
