Clogwyn IsaClogwyn Isa sits in a splendid position, affording much privacy by way of the mature gardens which surround it, enjoying a superb southerly stance with views towards the celebrated horseshoe bay of nearby Borth Y Gest with the Harlech coastline beyond – if you look carefully, you’ll be able to make out Harlech Castle located above the town.

This fine example of a detached Edwardian residence was built in 1905 during the ‘Arts and Crafts’ movement and provides generous five bedroomed accommodation of great character. The ground floor is particularly attractive, providing two separate living rooms, each ideal for family gatherings and entertaining. The kitchen/sitting room is essentially the heart of the home, having a fully fitted oak kitchen, granite work surfaces and a homely dual range as well as a host of other appliances. The centrally positioned back to back fireplace in this room offers a log burning stove and the convenience of a gas stove whilst the main lounge is a light and airy room, again with an authentic gas fired stove.

Internal doors are of stripped solid oak and the fully working timber sash windows add to the charm and character whilst being purposely large to allow in plenty of natural light. The principal bedroom has in recent years been treated to its own en suite facilities whilst the main Villeroy & Boch family bathroom comes fully tiled with a four piece suite. A solar panel installation to the roof provides ample hot water for free!

Outside, you’ll find charm by way of a covered verandah at the front with its rustic slate pillars and traditional quarry tiles beneath your feet. It’s a great place to take in the afternoon sunshine, providing welcome shade when it gets too hot. A further verandah is situated to the rear. Clogwyn Isa is approached via a sweeping driveway which ascends to the residence, with the provision of private parking. The gardens play a major role in making this property a true delight with a formal lawned garden to the front and a vast selection of flowering plants and shrubs with impressive specimens of broadleaved trees and conifers to the boundaries. To the rear there is also a fabulous timber summerhouse which kids will love but could also make an excellent studio as well as a greenhouse and sheds.

LocationClogwyn Isa is less than a mile from the centre of Porthmadog and the nearby picturesque bay of Borth y Gest on the western side of the Glaslyn Estuary. The surroundings and scenery in these parts is quite striking with a huge contrast between the coastal regions and the ruggedness of the Snowdonia mountains. Porthmadog offers a wide range of amenities, schools and is home to the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railway. Borth y Gest retains much of its Victorian heritage with its neat rows of cottages leading down to the sheltered sandy bay. From here, the views over the estuary to the Rhinog Mountains to the south, and the Moelwyn Mountains to the east are stunning. Road links in the area are extensive and have been greatly improved allowing good access to Caernarfon and Bangor. National rail links in Porthmadog provide services to Aberystwyth and Shrewsbury whilst Bangor station provides direct links to London.
