3 bedroom detached house

Cefn Castell, designed by renowned Manchester architects Stephenson Studio, is a secluded modernist villa which combines a contemporary frameless glass structure with local stone from a 400 year old clifftop cottage. The design was influenced by the maritime theme of coastal observation stations.
The house featured on Channel 4’s Grand Designs and more recently on I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here and was the winner of a national RIBA award. It has also been featured in a wide range of design and architecture publications.
The quality of construction and detailing is exemplary and resulted in the house being shortlisted as a national finalist in the LABC Awards.
There is 2000 sq. ft. of space with all rooms enjoying coastal views combined with intimate views linking internal spaces. Skyframe sliding glass panels provide access to the garden, rear courtyard and first floor terrace.
A covered walkway links the parking area to the main 41’ living area with panoramic sea views, a
large skylight and designer furniture by Roche Bobois and Varrier (available by separate negotiation.)
The kitchen by Callaghan Interiors of London comprises a range of gloss cabinets with contrasting accents and luxury integrated appliances. The sitting area features a log burner by Brunner, two ground floor double bedrooms feature large oak offset pivot doors, bespoke wardrobes and bathrooms with generous walk in shower rooms. The 26’ rear bedroom has a skylight spanning its width and integrates the stunning exposed stonework wall which surrounds the property on two sides whilst the second enjoys frameless corner glazing with exceptional views.
There’s a well-equipped utility room which houses controls for the air source heat pump system.
A turned oak stairway rises to the first-floor bedroom which features a minimalist en-suite bathroom with walk in shower and bath. There are built in bespoke wardrobes along one wall. The bedroom and bathroom have spectacular coastal views of the Llyn peninsular to Abersoch to the West and Harlech to the East and there is access to a roof terrace through a sliding glazed unit.

The stone remains of a 400 year old existing ruined cottage were re-used for a new 2.8m monumental stone boundary wall offering exceptional privacy to residents and textural contrast using traditional stone wall building techniques of the local area. The new house separates from the stone wall with a glass slot roof, which delicately touches the wall.
There is a large gravelled parking area, extensive lawn and mature shrub borders. A tiled sun terrace wraps around the building offering the ideal private space to admire the views, sunbathe and dine al fresco.

The home is located in an SSSI in front of the Welsh Coastal path which provides access to the beach and a short ten minute walk to the pretty seafront holiday town of Criccieth, providing a wealth of local amenities including shops, friendly pubs and excellent restaurants.

The home sits within a picturesque seafront plot on the fringes of the popular and historic seafront village of Cricceith, with its plethora of amenities including a railway station with links to shops, a Post Office, restaurants, public houses and golf and tennis clubs. The nearby towns of Pwllheli and Porthmadog on the peninsula provide a range of further shopping, educational and recreational facilities, with the A497 and A55 expressway offering convenient road links.
