5 bedroom detached house

The Old Rectory is a substantial and handsome detached family residence designed by renowned architect, environmentalist and creator of the enchanting village of Portmeirion, Sir Clough Williams-Ellis. The charming property with its quintessential whitewashed exterior and contrasting shuttered sash windows offers over 2,500 sq. ft. of characterful and versatile living accommodation arranged over two spacious floors.

The main central entrance porch opens into a welcoming hallway with a turned stairway which rises to the first floor. From here are two front-facing, multi-aspect rooms, currently being used as a home office and a ground floor bedroom. The accommodation opens naturally into the expansive 38 ft. open-plan living and dining area, with its tranquil views over the garden and open countryside beyond. The kitchen features dual sinks and a pantry and a stable-door providing access to the garden. Alongside is the boiler room, side porch and a useful shower room.

On the first floor, the airy landing has double doors opening to a small library space. Further are an additional five bright and well-proportioned bedrooms with pleasing vistas of the serene landscapes surrounding. Completing the floor is a deluxe family bathroom with a freestanding rolltop bathtub and separate walk-in shower, alongside which is an additional cloakroom.

The property sits in a generous private plot of approximately 1 acre, nestled among rolling hills. Low stone walling encloses a five-bar gate opening to the sizeable driveway and gives access to the two-storey former staff accommodation which is now a useful detached double garage including a pannelled snug/tack room with open fireplace, with second floor offering a range of uses or including the return to use as accommodation. Large expanses of divided level lawns bordered by mature hedging wrap around the rear garden, interspersed with mature trees and a productive fruit orchard, whilst a paved rear terrace offers the perfect al fresco dining spot. There is also a seven-space dog kennel with solar panelling and pretty pond, all enjoying views over the open countryside surrounding the property.

The property is located in Coedena on the Isle of Anglesey, a short distance from the popular village of Llannerch-y-Medd with its primary school, convenient GP Surgery and village shop. The larger town of Llangefni is close by and offers a wide range of shops, supermarkets and educational facilities. Valley is also within easy reach, with its mainline station offering frequent rail services and the town of Holyhead, with its plentiful amenities including supermarkets, petrol stations, doctor and dentists’ surgeries, bars, cafés, restaurants and sporting and entertainment facilities. The A55 North Wales expressway is under 7 miles distant.
