Built in 1876, the property is spread over three floors, with three reception rooms, four bedrooms and two bathrooms while also offering a sizeable cellar and a large double garage with accommodation above. The garden provides sophisticated, characterful outside space perfect for entertaining. Viewing of this special property is strongly advised. EPC: C.

Background
Ty Llwyd was built in 1876 for local ship owner Harry Cohen. Full of original features, the stained-glass windows in the lounge depict the relationship between King Arthur and Guinevere and the search for the Holy Grail. It was requisitioned in 1944 for the use of the United States Air Force, and there remains a very interesting piece of history left behind at the property dating back to that time. In the 1950s, the property was split into two and Ty Llwyd had unfortunately fallen into disrepair by the time the current owners purchased it in the 1990s. Since then, this magnificent home has been lovingly restored and extended.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on January 12, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
