Property Description

Croeso i Plas Penbryn Pwll Du - a timeless home that is captivating from the moment you arrive.

Plas Penbryn Pwll Du - which means The Manor House on the top of the hill next to the deep lake - makes an immediate impression. The house is of significant architectural interest and the drawings of the Welsh Architect Griff Morris have been archived in the Royal Institute of British Architects in London.

Set amidst the breath taking scenery which encompasses the Eryri Mountain Range and the beautiful Rhinogs, Plas Penbryn Pwll Du is an historic Welsh stone farmhouse dating back approximately 250 years, which was extended in the mid seventies. The construction of the newer parts involved the collection of stone from 3 local derelict cottages and such was the skill of the architect and stonemasons that it is impossible to tell, without intimate knowledge of the house, the old from the new.

The house is multi level but of single storey and is packed with original and unique details. Oak beams, exposed stone walls and staircases feature throughout. The living spaces are warm and welcoming, offering cosy sitting spaces by the fire in winter or summer evenings in the garden room. Sleep quality is guaranteed with a separate wing for the bedrooms - with each one benefitting from their own private bathroom. In addition there is a separate guest annex - ideal for extended living arrangements, visiting family or friends or even providing an income potential through letting.

The house continues to offer more potential via the attic. Currently this is divided into 6 separate rooms, all of which are boarded, and benefit from full electrical wiring and Velux windows. This area provides completely usable space and could be successfully utilized as additional living, sleeping or working areas.

Plas Penbryn Pwll Du is unique and offers a rare opportunity for a change of lifestyle. The house is simply stunning, the grounds are amazing and the location will take your breath away.
