This former mill packed with character and surrounded by woodland has a surprise inside
Location and surroundings, character and history, rural and yet accessible - there's a former mill house tucked away off a quiet country lane that can off it all - and more too.
Nestled conveniently between the sought-after towns of Conwy and Betws-y-Coed, this extraordinary three-bedroom, three-bathroom cottage presents a unique fusion of historical allure, contemporary comfort, and potential for income generation.
Once an old watermill, the property has been meticulously restored to maintain its rich character, with original architectural features adding warmth and personality throughout, including beams and some of the mill's original internal workings.

Sitting outside in one of the special areas the garden offers, you are surrounded by woodland, immersed in nature and kept company by a soundtrack of birdsong.
But the rural retreat is conveniently placed too as the end of the meandering and peaceful country lane is the A470 offering a direct route to nearby Llanrwst, the north Wales coast, Conwy and Llandudno.
For a longer journey, that is incredibly scenic too, head south and this major A-road eventually gets you to Cardiff, via Dolgellau, Rhayader, Builth Wells, and Brecon.
Back at the mill to find that this adaptable home comes with a surprise. Hidden away on the top floor and not obvious from the outside is a self-contained one-bedroom flat called The Miller's Loft, situated above the main cottage - an ideal solution for multigenerational living, guest lodging, or as a holiday let.
Or, if a new owner wants to rent out the two storeys below the apartment, it means they have somewhere to stay and don't then have to sleep in the car. The old mill called Hen Felin Isaf is for sale for offers over £475,000 with Currans, North Wales call 01244 313900 to find out more.
