A four-bedroom detached property with spectacular views across the Mawddach Estuary and surrounding Snowdonia mountains has come onto the market for offers over £435,000.

The property in Ynys Gyffylog, Arthog, sits within around 2.5 acres of land and includes an 18th century cottage, a derelict 18th century farmhouse and a 16th century barn, giving the unusual home plenty of character and potential.

Set on a hillside overlooking the estuary, the property enjoys a secluded setting while still being within easy reach of Barmouth, with Barmouth Bridge and the Mawddach Trail nearby.

The main cottage has been arranged to make the most of its elevated position, with an open-plan lounge, bedroom, dining area and kitchen on the first floor. A doorway leads directly onto a balcony where buyers can take in views across the sea and the mountains of Snowdonia.

The ground floor includes the bathroom and lobby, while the cottage itself retains the character expected from a property of its age.

Attached to the cottage is the unoccupied three-bedroom 18th century farmhouse, which is packed with original features. Inside are striking inglenook fireplaces in the lounge and kitchen, as well as a mullion window in the kitchen.

There is also a historic barn dating back to the 16th century, complete with a beautiful oak roof. The combination of buildings makes this a particularly distinctive property for anyone looking for a home with history and plenty of scope.

Outside, the property sits within approximately 2.5 acres of gardens and land, with mature oak trees, wild flowers and plenty of space to enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

The lower garden also features three large polytunnels, with peat-rich soil that is described as ideal for growing fruit and vegetables. There is plenty of space for those looking to make the most of the land, whether for gardening, growing produce or simply enjoying the countryside.

The location is another major draw. The property is on the southern side of the Mawddach Estuary, next to Barmouth Bridge and the nine-mile Mawddach Trail, which follows the southern side of the estuary and is popular with walkers and cyclists.

Barmouth itself is within walking distance across the bridge, while Morfa Mawddach railway station is around a five-minute walk away, providing further transport options.

The home also benefits from superfast fibre optic broadband, making it possible to enjoy the tranquillity of the countryside while staying connected.

With its combination of sea and mountain views, historic buildings, generous grounds and peaceful setting close to Barmouth, this is a property that offers something rather different from the usual family home.

You’ll want to get in quickly. Homes with this much land, history and spectacular scenery do not come onto the market every day.
