A Traditional Former Village School with Planning Consent for Holiday Let Conversion
A charming and characterful former village school, built in traditional dressed stone under a slate roof, set in an attractive woodland setting just outside the Snowdonia National Park boundary. This substantial semi-detached property offers an exciting opportunity for investment, with approved planning consent for conversion into a holiday let (alternative uses, such as a private residence, would be subject to the necessary planning consents).
The property retains much of its period character, with tall sash-style windows, attractive stone elevations, and a gently elevated position overlooking the lane below. To the side is a yard area and a section of mature woodland, providing a pleasant natural backdrop and scope for landscaping.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire an historic village building in a highly attractive setting, ready for sympathetic transformation into a high-quality holiday let or, subject to planning, a unique family home.
Accommodation:
The current layout reflects its former use as a school, with two large open-plan classrooms separated by folding partitions, plus a range of ancillary rooms including cloakrooms, storage, and service areas. The building is in need of upgrading and conversion, offering the incoming owner the opportunity to create a bespoke interior to suit their needs.
Agents Note
Please note the property is semi-detached. The adjoining former school house in separate ownership and is owner occupied.
Outside
