6 bedroom house

It has been owned over the centuries by the Constable of Conwy Castle and three High Sheriffs of Denbighshire. The present owner has dressed the property in keeping with its age and type, creating a beautiful family home. From the moment you drive up to the property, it grabs your attention, the views across the Clwydian Range to the front and the countryside to the rear are idyllic.

Taking in the stunning views of the Clwydian range as you head down the sweeping driveway you will see the majority of the 3.5 acre pastureland and then come across a stone wall which is adorned with aged stone horse heads. The driveway ends at the front of the property with ample parking for events or large family gatherings.

With the property boasting 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, two of which are en-suites, and an impressively large lounge this property lends itself to large family gatherings and entertainment. The house also boasts a substantial dining kitchen with two Agas, a multi-functional snug/study, and a spacious second lounge located on the first floor which could be utilised as a games room. Throughout the property there is an abundance of historic exposed beams.

LOUNGE:

The original wooden arched door opens into the spectacular lounge lending itself to entertaining purposes, with stairs to the first floor, a grand stone inglenook fireplace with inset hearth and log burner. Original beams to the ceiling as well as apex beams to the walls. The north wall contains the outline of two Tudor doorways. Large single glazed windows with leaded feature, provides views to both the front and rear with the front windows containing window seats throughout the downstairs of the property. The property has cast iron radiators throughout the ground floor.

STUDY:

Large single glazed leaded window to the front and rear with the front containing a window seat. Fire inset and hearth with log burner, beams to the ceiling and early wood panelling to one of the walls.

KITCHEN:

A warm, welcoming room and the hub of the home. Single glazed leaded window containing a window seat to the front of the property with views across to the Clwydian range. A range of Tegla of Llandegla hand crafted oak fitted wall and base units with complimentary granite work surfaces and splash back tiling. A four-oven oil Aga situated within the original inglenook with feature beam across the opening and additionally, a single electric two oven Aga. Integrated Bosch fridge, dishwasher and microwave. Not forgetting of course, the full-sized dining table.

UTILITY:

A feature of the earliest part of the house is a stone archway leading into the utility room. Either side of the door way are recesses in the wall where a wooden beam would have been housed and slid across to secure the door. Local tradition would have it that the kitchen was the court house and the utility room would have been the jail.

Thankfully, no prisoners are detained here now, and the room consists of wall and base units with complimentary work surfaces, Belfast sink, and a separate storeroom which houses the boiler. Steps from the utility lead to a downstairs cloakroom and also the outside of the property.

CLOAKROOM:

A 3-piece suite to include a shower cubicle, sink, and WC.

FIRST FLOOR:

An impressive landing which is used as a second lounge with feature beams to the ceiling and a single glazed leaded window to the front allowing the views to be enjoyed. The history of this home can be seen throughout and is evident with part of an internal wall showing a prime example of the wattle and daub construction. The landing is just one area where the original features can be appreciated. Includes three cast iron radiators.

BEDROOM 1:

Single glazed leaded window to the front, beams to the ceiling and walls and a radiator. On one wall, a medieval post and panel contains the remains of a 16th century wall painting of considerable importance, there being only a handful of houses in Denbighshire with similar work surviving from this period. A fireplace with slate hearth can be found here, a wonderful feature. Stairs lead you to an additional room (Bedroom 6) which is currently used as a dressing room containing built in Tegla units and features a leaded window.

OUTSIDE:

To the right of the property is a kitchen garden with a greenhouse and potted fruit trees leading to a stone range, housing a single garage, workshop and a large store too. Approached via the stone range there is a picturesque walled family garden with flowers and trees sitting to the side of the property. It is incredibly private, yet the breath-taking views can still be adored. Overlooking the walled garden is the sun terrace which runs the length of the walled garden and can either be approached from the steps leading from the garden or a walkway from the rear door of the house.

In total, the property provides approximately 3.5 acres of grazing land located to the rear of the property and is currently used for equestrian and grazing purposes with dedicated bridleways on the door step.

Steeped in history, the detail sheet does not do this property justice. To fully experience the beauty of the property and its location, internal inspection is highly recommended.

If purchased with its neighbouring property, Y Beudy, it could have the added benefit of an additional 3.5 acres and include a characterful holiday cottage or additional living space for further family.
