Features and description

A unique opportunity to acquire a picturesque private island set within the Dwyryd Estuary, in the heart of Eryri National Park.

Ynys Gifftan extends to approximately 17.74 acres, offering an expansive and unspoilt landscape with uninterrupted panoramic views across the coastline and surrounding mountains.

For sale by private treaty.

Location
The property occupies a unique and tranquil position within the Afon Dwyryd estuary, close to the village of Talsarnau.

The island is situated approximately 4 miles from the historic coastal town of Harlech.

The coastal towns of Porthmadog (5 miles) and Barmouth (15 miles) are within easy reach and provide a more comprehensive range of leisure and shopping facilities.

Amenities
Set within the heart of Eryri National Park, Harlech is widely regarded as one of Wales’ most scenic and historically significant locations. The town is renowned for its UNESCO World Heritage listed castle, dramatically sited above the coastline, with the Rhinog mountain range providing a striking natural backdrop.

The area boasts golden sandy beaches and picturesque coastal and mountain walks which can be enjoyed throughout the year.

Harlech benefits from a wealth of essential amenities including a bakery, grocers, pharmacy, cafes, restaurants, and bars. It also benefits from the availability of both primary and secondary schools, as well as a local health centre.

It is also home to the prestigious Royal St David’s Golf Club, one of the finest links courses attracting golfers from across the country.

With its combination of heritage and natural beauty it presents an exciting proposition for buyers looking to purchase in a truly special part of Wales.

Farmhouse
The traditional stone farmhouse occupies a picturesque position on the eastern shore of the island, enjoying open views across the estuary towards the village of Talsarnau.

The farmhouse is arranged over two floors. The ground floor accommodation comprises two reception rooms, a kitchen, bathroom, and pantry. To the first floor there is an ensuite bedroom.

Adjacent to the farmhouse is a traditional stone outbuilding, offering useful additional storage or potential for ancillary use, subject to the necessary consents.
