Situated in an elevated and prominent position above the town of Dolgellau, it offers spectacular south-facing views of the Cader Idris Mountain Range from both inside and outside the house.
OVERVIEW
The property benefits from high ceilings and light, spacious, and well-proportioned rooms throughout and boasts an array of original features, including pine doors, decorative leaded windows, and impressive wooden Parquet block flooring. Previously utilized as two separate dwellings, each with its own private entrance, the living accommodation spans two floors in one section and three floors in the other.
