Perfect for Couples - Grade II Listed Cottage
Description
A lovely little character cottage - Grade II Listed - with many original features situated in a quiet cul-de-sac on the edge of Blaenau Ffestiniog but only 10 minutes walk from all the town has to offer. A perfect location for exploring Snowdonia and all the stunning walks in the immediate area. The space The cottage dates back to at least 1834 and is one of the few cottages to escape the regeneration scheme in Blaenau still retaining its lovely old sash windows and original Welsh slate roof. Internally it retains a lot of the original features including a rare Welsh oven - unfortunately not in use. It is also interesting as it's one of the few cottages in Blaenau actually built of slate - which is what the town is famous for.
