SELLER INSIGHT How long have you owned the property? “We bought the property in 2015 as a ruin and spent four years having the house built. We have lived in the house for five years.” What attracted you to this specific house and location? “We were looking for a house close to the seaside and after about six months of searching, with no success, we decided to look for a piece of land instead. Plas Yr Eifl popped up right away. It had just gone on the market. This was a Saturday. We drove up the next day to have a look. We were both so stunned by the unbelievable beauty of the location that we said ‘this is it’ immediately. We put in the offer on Monday which was accepted.” What can you tell us about the history of the property and how it has been adapted since you’ve owned it? “The original Plas Yr Eifl was built around the turn of the last century. It belonged to the quarry master of the Yr Eifl granite quarry which was established in 1850. He evidently chose the most attractive location possible for siting his home. The quarry closed in 1963. After that the building became a hotel and later a family residence. In 2005 the Plas burned to the ground. The fire was so severe that even the stone lintels were cracked, making restoration impractical. It had been standing as a ruin until we bought it in 2015 and we were able to secure planning approval for a new build house on the site while reusing the beautiful local granite facing for the new house.” What is your favourite room and why? “All the rooms have beautiful views, so it is difficult to pick a favourite. S loves looking out toward Mount Snowdon when she is busy in the kitchen, particularly as the sun is rising behind it. R loves the view to the Yr Eifl mountains when he is sitting at the dining table. Every day the massive walls of the Tre’r Ceiri Iron Age hill fort and the sheer cliffs below are illuminated in a different way. Watching the South Stack lighthouse at the westernmost tip of Anglesey f lash every 10 seconds is a very peaceful way to end the day while sitting in front of the fire in the lounge.” What do you love about the house the most now? “Since, together with our architect, we had the house built to our specifications, we love it full stop. First and foremost is the way the architect made sure to take advantage of the views from every window. We love the large rooms, high ceilings and the huge granite island. There is both a breakfast balcony overlooking Snowdonia and the Caernarfon Bay seaside to the northeast and a sunset balcony overlooking the Irish Sea to the northwest. The house is warm, secure and energy efficient.” What you’ll miss the most? “In two words, ‘the setting’. Having lived in six different countries around the world, we’ve never experienced anything like this. Nothing has even come close. There are obviously the amazing views that you can enjoy from every window and in every direction. But there is also the proximity of this beautiful environment to immerse yourself in. A favourite morning walk follows the Wales Coast path from just outside our property gate down to the local beach and harbour, along the cliffs of the Trefor headland, passing the impressive Trefor stacks, with their seabird colonies and with regular views of seals on the rocks and schools of dolphins and porpoises feasting on the local mackerel and seabass.” What do you love about the local community? “We have fantastic neighbours. They are always willing to lend a hand if necessary, but we all respect each other’s privacy as well. The community in general is welcoming and friendly.” Additional Information Services: Mains water and electricity. Private drainage. Air source heat pump underfloor heating.
