About
A charming and well-presented three Bedroom Detached period cottage, thoughtfully extended and renovated, offering versatile accommodation, attractive gardens, ample parking and stunning views towards the surrounding countryside and Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon).
With the advantage of no onward chain, this well-presented three Bedroom Detached Cottage dates back to the 18th century and has been thoughtfully extended and renovated throughout to create a charming family home.
The property offers a generous Lounge with log burner, contemporary Shower Room, useful Attic Room, and well-maintained gardens, together with an external shed currently used as a Utility Room/Workshop.
The property further benefits from impressive views across the surrounding fields towards Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon).
Situated in a private position, the property is conveniently located in the centre of the village of Penisarwaun.
The village offers a primary school, while a wider range of amenities can be found in the nearby villages of Llanrug and Llanberis, including a variety of local businesses, convenience stores, public houses, and primary and secondary schools.
The accommodation begins with a door leading into the generous Lounge, which features impressive high ceilings, a log burner set within the original chimney breast, solid oak flooring, a front-facing window, and two Velux windows providing an abundance of natural light.
From the lounge, there is access to two Bedrooms. One overlooks the rear of the property and benefits from a Velux window, while the second bedroom overlooks the front.
A convenient W/C with washbasin is positioned between the two bedrooms. Returning to the lounge, a doorway leads into the spacious Kitchen/Diner, which forms part of the property's later extension.
The kitchen is fitted with wood-effect cabinets, black worktops, a gas hob, electric oven and extractor, together with plumbing for a washing machine and dishwasher.
Four rear-facing windows enjoy attractive views across the surrounding fields towards Yr Wyddfa. Two high-level side windows flank an external door, providing access to the side of the property.
An inner hallway provides access to the modern Shower Room, which is fitted with a rain-shower cubicle, W/C, washbasin mounted on a vanity unit, heated towel rail and partially tiled walls and a storage cupboard which houses the hot water cylinder.
At the end of the hallway, positioned at the front of the property, is the main bedroom.
A wooden ladder within the room provides access to the attic room, which offers useful additional space suitable for a variety of purposes.
There is also a large and partially boarded attic above the other 2 bedrooms.
The property is approached via an unadopted lane lined with trees, leading to a front area predominantly laid with crushed slate, providing off-road parking for approximately three to four vehicles.
A walkway between stone walls leads to the front door, with a lawned area to the left and a decked area to the right.
The parking area continues alongside the property, in front of an external wooden shed currently utilised as a utility room/workshop, which benefits from power and lighting.
An EV charging point is also installed. To the right-hand side of the property is a further lawned area, with a shed positioned in the far corner.
A pathway continues around the rear and left-hand side of the property, where a further shed houses the biomass heating system.
The property further benefits from double glazing and solar panels which heat the hot water system. Ground Floor Lounge 4.63m x 4.1m Max.
