4 bedroom detached house for sale

Sympathetically renovated by the existing owner, Glygyrog Wen is a beautifully appointed Welsh long house. Renovations include a beautiful extension to the south/east elevation and complete internal remodelling with a keen eye for the preservation of a wealth of original features including exposed stone walls, beamed ceilings, fireplaces and stone floors.

The beautifully refitted Mark Wilkinson kitchen has a superb range of hand built solid wood units with a raised island and space for dining table. There is an Aga Range set within an original stone inglenook. The dining hall is found in the centre of the house, exhibiting exposed beams and a stone fireplace. Beyond this is the recent extension which gives a wonderful reception room with log burning stove and French doors making the upmost of the views towards the Estuary. There is planning permission granted for the construction of a garden room at this end of the property.
