North Wales Homes

Originally the property belonged to the Penrhyn Estate and its history is most interesting. You can just imagine how busy Ty Mawr was with the Estate workers going about their daily tasks. With a large Inglenook fireplace in the dining hall, this was where the workers had their meals.

Ty Mawr´s origins go back to the 18th century with an additional wing built some hundred years later. This area was used to make butter and the churns were operated by the machinery powered by the stream. This area would be a hive of activity and its conversion to additional accommodation is quite remarkable.

The grounds of Ty Mawr very much complement the property. We have a delightful cottage-style garden to the front hosting a variety of established plants and shrubs. Surrounding the property we have many mature trees and there is a gravelled drive offering ample parking. The stream even has its own bridge which leads to an additional lawned area. The courtyard has Penrhyn slate flags and the log store adds to the character of this area - the perfect place for your evening gin and tonic.

With excellent communication links to the main road networks and being on the outskirts of the university town of Bangor, Ty Mawr is a very special property.

Dining Hall

A most impressive area with the focal point being the large Inglenook fireplace. This fireplace with its large beam above houses a Dovre side-loading multi-fuel stove. The pointed stone of the fireplace complements the parquet flooring and gives this room a real sense of history. The dining hall is a marvellous room for entertaining and your guests could not fail to be interested in its history. There are exposed beams to the ceilings and a pleasant outlook over the garden. Adjacent to the hall is a useful shower room with full cloakroom facilities. The staircase at the rear leads up to the first floor. From the hall we lead to the study.

The study

With the parquet flooring continued from the dining hall the study provides a quiet niche. This area could also easily be incorporated into the lounge. Overlooking the well-stocked gardens, this really is a very pleasant area.
There is a range of cream Shaker style wall, drawer and base units with complementary timber work surfaces. A range of attractive display cabinets match providing plenty of space to display your favourite china. A matching canopy sits above the inset five ring gas hob with an integral oven below. The inset Belfast sink has a waste-disposal unit and sits below the display cupboards. There are exposed beams and a ceramic tiled floor which both add to the character of this space. The dining area is roomy enough to house a dresser and overlooks the front garden. The stable door with its glazed viewing panels provides access to our courtyard. The courtyard provides a charming and sheltered area to dine. There are two stone-built outbuildings; one providing a laundry room together with housing the oil-fired boiler, the other additional storage. A wicket gate leads from the courtyard through a clematis arch into a secret lawned garden with greenhouse. There is a large detached garage and the gravelled driveway provides ample parking.The focal point of this room is the fireplace. The impressive Inglenook houses a Morso multi-fuel stove and has an attractive timber display shelf above.

There is an alcove which has a timber display shelf. We have timber panelling to the ceiling and the parquet flooring is continued from the study area. The two picture windows have leaded light detailing with quarry-tiled sills.

The outlook is quite private and we can enjoy the stream, the stone bridge, lawns and the conifers to our boundary
The French-style door leads directly to our courtyard. From the lounge we return to the dining hall from which the stairs take us to the first floor.

Period style staircase leads to the first floor landing. A picture window overlooks the courtyard and garden. The landing area has exposed beams and purlins.
