With its bold and characterful exterior, Cartrefle Lodge enjoys a superb uninterrupted southerly aspect with exceptional views over the Menai Strait towards the Snowdonia mountain range, a view worth waking up to which cannot be overstated!
With its bold and characterful exterior, Cartrefle Lodge stands right on the edge of this famous town, enjoying a superb uninterrupted southerly aspect with exceptional views over the Menai Strait towards the Snowdonia mountain range – now that’s a view worth waking up to. Being able to observe the coming and goings of the unique tidal waters and ever changing palette of the Menai Strait and its magnificent mountainous backdrop, cannot be overstated!
Formerly a lodge house for the nearby Cartrefle estate, this property really stands out from its neighbours within the immediate vicinity simply because of its eye-catching tiered exterior and playful architecture. It certainly has all the right ingredients if you like your property to have personality and an individuality. The extensive garden grounds and plentiful off road parking complement the spacious interior, making the most of the fabulous surroundings, so you can really enjoy the unique setting.
It may not look it from the roadside, but Cartrefle Lodge is actually 3 storeys, a substantial residence with generously proportioned accommodation throughout with the interior having been sympathetically modernised (2015 and 2018) in all the essential areas with kitchen and bathrooms receiving the most attention. The kitchen is particularly impressive, a light and bright room with large windows and patio doors to take full advantage of its pleasing aspect with the quality of the fit and finish being self-evident and complemented by a host of modern convenient appliances. It’s unusual, but adjacent to the kitchen is a generous games/family room which could prove useful when entertaining guest, family and friends.
The living room mirrors the kitchen with large dual aspect windows and of course, superb views and there’s even an open fireplace to gather round during the colder months. The layout of the ground floor makes this a versatile home which could be configured to suit your particular needs and taste. The principal bedroom on the first floor has patio doors opening to a wide balcony and should be noted for having the best views in the house for sure. All windows utilise modern uPVC units and the property is served by a gas central heating system.
The main garden slopes gently away from the property to the rear (south facing), being primarily laid to lawn with a host of mature plants and shrubs together with well-defined hedged borders and trees. Vehicular access is via a shared driveway to the side leading to the parking area located within the garden.
Menai Bridge is situated alongside the banks of the beautiful Menai Strait close to a natural narrowing where the famous Thomas Telford suspension bridge crosses the waters onto the Isle of Anglesey. In times past it was naturally seen as the place to cross by ferry before the bridge was constructed. This northern section of the strait opens out into the fabulous Hirael Bay leading to the Irish Sea sandwiched between the Snowdonia Mountains to one side and Puffin Island to the other which is just off the eastern tip of the island. You’ll find the area offers much in the way of convenience being ideally situated for the University City of Bangor which lies just two miles distant on the mainland.
This vibrant town has many convenient amenities that will take care of your day to day requirements, including a wide variety of independent shops, taverns and restaurants and is situated on the tourist route for the historic town of Beaumaris. Menai Bridge has primary and secondary schools and the excellent road links give easy access to all the outlying towns and villages as well as the main A55 expressway which allows convenient access to northern coastal towns, the port of Holyhead and the cities of Chester, Liverpool and Manchester.
