An exceptional Grade II listed residence, secluded
in 11 acres of land, comprising of woodland, 2 acre
garden
with lawns, orchard, Victorian box hedging
and a 5.5 acre paddock.
Secluded in its own woodland, the house has an
enchanting and peaceful atmosphere. Steeped in
history, it is
regarded with great affection
locally. Over the past ten years the property and
its garden have been the
subject of sympathetic
refurbishment by the current owners who have valued
the many original features of the
Plas, such as the
slate fireplaces, the kitchen service bells, the
cellar and its larder room, the butler’s pantry
and
the ornate arched and pillared sky-lit corridor
known as the Moroccan Corridor. Some rooms have yet
to be
renovated, including the large traditional
kitchen. The Plas is approached by a sweeping drive
through mature
woodland and in spring is carpeted
successively by snowdrops, daffodils, bluebells and
ramsons (wild garlic).
The grounds are interesting
and unusual, a series of garden landscapes unfold,
each with its own attractive
quality, a partially
walled garden, orchard, ‘homestead’ yard, terraced
lawns, streams, small courtyard, field
with mountain
views and some very fine trees.
COACH HOUSE
The Coach House
overlooking the homestead yard has a great deal of
charm, and has recently been re-pointed
and
re-roofed. It was used as a dwelling until the late
1980’s and with the relevant planning permission
could
make an attractive addition to the living
accommodation of the Plas.
The property is situated, approximately 1 mile from
Botwnnog which has both comprehensive and primary
schools and a health centre, and is located in the
popular recreational area of the Lleyn Peninsula
with its fine
blue flag beaches, golf courses, and
unspoilt country walks in spectacular scenery.
Pwllheli has a varied range
of amenities, with an
impressive 400 berth marina with 24 hours access and
train links to Shrewsbury and
beyond. The popular
village of Abersoch with its harbour and sandy
beach, world renowned for its watersports
is
approximately 4 miles from the property. Excellent
golfing facilities are available with 18 hole golf
courses at
Pwllheli, Abersoch and Morfa Nefyn (7
miles away on the north coast). The University City
of Bangor,
approximately 40 miles away offers a main
line railway connection to Holyhead and London, and
direct access
to the A55 expressway which in turn
provides links to Chester and the motorway network. |
