Viewing essential! With tourism booming here in the UK, now could be the perfect time to step into the arena here in beautiful Beddgelert!

This is certainly an exciting opportunity to acquire a ready-made and highly successful holiday let business, situated in the heart of the Eryri/Snowdonia National Park, surrounded by incredible scenery at the foot of the peak of Moel Hebog and the confluence of the river’s Colwyn and Glaslyn in this pretty little village.

So, a little history of this fine dwelling.

According to its listing status, Plas Colwyn is essentially a Grade II Listed Regency Villa, built around 1830 as part of a speculative development of the village by the Sygun estate on its Perthi Farm property.

This development, to which the earliest of the 19th century buildings in the village belong, was intended to serve the increasing numbers of tourists who were coming to Eryri/Snowdonia in the second quarter of the century.

Plas Colwyn is listed for its special interest as a well-preserved Regency villa within a good village streetscape and group value with other listed items in the centre of Beddgelert village.

Placed where it is in the heart of the village close to the scenic bridge, this substantial property comes with the distinct advantage of plentiful off road parking (definitely a premium here in Beddgelert) and a reasonably sized mature garden plus a splendid southerly facing terrace to the front overlooking the river, where you can sit back and enjoy all the coming and going’s.

The current layout provides 9 bedrooms (3 with en-suite) within the main building with a further bedroom located within the Annexe located within the east wing.

The current owners utilise the premises as a “whole holiday let”, essentially catering for a large family and/or extended family groups.

It could easily be modified to be a B&B business with owners accommodation to suit (subject to the usual planning consents).

All furnishings, fittings and appointments can be included as part of the sale which will also include future bookings, so you can really hit the ground running.

Plas Colwyn has been in the careful ownership of its present custodian for some 18 years now, who have cherished their time in creating a worthy holiday let business that caters handsomely for what is expected in these modern times whilst retaining its essential charm and undoubted character.

The owners, never wishing to sit still have undertaken numerous ongoing improvements down through the years to ensure the property is fit for purpose with modern appointments where deemed necessary whilst keeping a careful eye on its general presentation and décor.

In keeping with its heritage, the interior retains such essentials as its turned staircase, open fireplaces, high coved ceilings and sash windows whilst its pleasing symmetry and generously proportioned rooms throughout is most welcome.

There are two main reception rooms, the sitting room enjoying the comforts of a wood burning stove whilst the dining room can cater for large gatherings come mealtimes with the kitchen having everything required to keep the chef of the house happy.

A further highlight is the garden room which opens out to a decked seating rear within the rear garden. The property is served by an oil fired central heating system.
