6 bed detached house for sale

Garth Road, Old Colwyn, Colwyn Bay, Conwy LL29

Location, Location, Location


The location of this property is a lifestyle choice for many reasons: It is by the sea, boasts sea views, and is close to a beautiful sandy beach. Old Colwyn and Colwyn Bay are linked in both location and history. Old Colwyn is mentioned in a survey commanded by Edward III in 1334, where it was referred to as the “vill” or township of “Coloyne”. Over the centuries, it has grown into a strong local community.

Colwyn Bay, to the west of the sandy beach, is a newer town that became a popular holiday destination in the 20th century. Today, it is a quieter place that has benefited from considerable investment, creating a new sea wall, headland defences, a widened promenade, and imported sand. A fantastic, modern, family-friendly environment and a stunning beach have been created for all to enjoy.

You have all the major supermarket brands, such as Morrisons, Aldi, and Lidl, within a short drive. For those who enjoy sports, you will find the Eirias Events Centre in close proximity, featuring a modern gym, athletics track, and the home of rgc Rugby Club. Golfers are in for a treat as you are spoilt for choice along the coast; your most local course is in Old Colwyn itself.

Jump in your car, and within a 35-45 minute drive, you can be enjoying Snowdonia's beautiful National Park. Closer to home, there are many inland walks across gentler landscapes. Plus, why not enjoy a lovely evening stroll on the promenade or the beach itself?

Many people make the mistake of thinking the North Wales coast is isolated; how wrong they are! Bangor is less than a 30-minute drive away, and major cities like Chester and Wrexham are all within 50 minutes' reach.

Now add some well-respected schools within walking distance, and you have ticked all your boxes.

A Bit About the House


This house is truly a one-off, designed by the parents of the current owners to appeal to a wide range of potential buyers. The clever design is ideal for a large family who wants the luxury of a games room and cinema room, but it also offers future-proofing for retirement, as you can live fully self-contained on the ground floor. The opportunities don't stop there; with the addition of a fixed fire alarm system and fire doors, the lower floor is already set up to be a holiday let, capable of generating a second income.

From the front, the house appears understated, concealing the scale of the lower ground floor. You are welcomed by a driveway that easily allows parking for two cars. To the left of the driveway, there are beautifully landscaped gardens set on two levels.

Once inside, you are welcomed by wood flooring that flows seamlessly into the lounge, dining room, and master bedroom. From the hallway, you can access the large master bedroom, complete with a dressing room and a stunning super-sized en-suite bathroom. There is also a useful guest cloakroom conveniently located in the hallway, along with stairs leading to both the first floor and the lower ground floor.

Living Areas Now we enter our favourite part of the house: The lounge. It is a very good size, bright and airy. You will love the open fire and can imagine cosying up on a winter's night to enjoy a film. Glass twin doors lead to the dining room-another great-sized room with a beautiful view out to the sea and across to Old Colwyn. There is also a small balcony and external stairs leading to the rear garden. This is a must-see room that will not disappoint; what a space to entertain guests or enjoy a family meal!

From the dining room and the hallway, you will find the kitchen-diner, another generous room. Back in 2000, when this house was built, no expense was spared. This is clear to see in the one-off handmade hardwood kitchen units made by Katrina Kitchens in Shropshire. There is an abundance of storage units, drawers, and display cabinets, plus all the kitchen equipment you will ever need. With all the built-in appliances you would expect, it is a great place to have many culinary adventures.

First Floor The stairs to the first floor are carpeted, leading to a really good-sized landing. There is even space for a desk and chair, making it ideal for children to do their homework or as a work-from-home space. Size-wise, you will find three double bedrooms: Bedrooms 3,4, and 6. Bedroom 6 could easily double up as a full-time home office, while bedrooms 3 and 4 are both a generous size. All three bedrooms have built-in wardrobes to maximise the living space. You also have eaves storage, so you will never have to worry about clutter again.

Lower Ground Floor The lower ground floor is a real slice of luxury. Who wouldn't want a large games room and a cinema room? You would certainly be the envy of your friends and family. This is where the versatility of the layout comes into its own; the games room would also make a great second lounge or even a home gym.

From the games room, you will find an inner hallway leading to the utility room, with doors allowing access to the cloakroom, bedrooms 2 and 5, and the rear garden. The utility room features built-in storage units, a good amount of worktop space, and plumbing for a washing machine. Both bedrooms have en-suite shower rooms, bedrooms 2 and 5 benefit from a built-in storage cupboard and bedroom 2 has patio doors to the garden. As previously mentioned, this part of the house is ideal for generating a second income as a holiday let or for multi-generational living.

Outside The rear garden follows the landscaped theme of the front and is divided into sections of mature shrubs, slate areas, raised flower beds, a decking area, and a good-sized patio. The patio is partly located under the dining room balcony, providing some shade in the summer-an ideal place for a hot tub. It is a fantastic space for entertaining at BBQs. The rear garden is spacious, very tidy, and quite low maintenance, yet still retains enough area to get those green fingers working. To the left of the house, situated under the driveway, there is a useful storage room for all your garden equipment.
