LOCATION
Ysbryd y Mor occupies a wonderful and dramatic location on the west coast of Anglesey, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and facing south west overlooking its own land and surrounding countryside towards the coast, out to sea and all the way down to the Llyn Penninsula and Bardsey Island in the distance. The house enjoys plenty of privacy, but is close to numerous footpaths which provide wonderful walking along the Coastal Path, coastline and headland.
On the recreational front the island is known for its scenic coastline and numerous sandy beaches. There is excellent walking both in Anglesey and in the Snowdonia Mountain Range, and directly from the property there are spectacular walks around South Stack and Holyhead Mountain, much of which is an RSPB Nature Reserve and home to many different species of sea birds. Indeed, South Stack Lighthouse is a spectacular landmark and visitor attraction, with access to the tower and museum within the lighthouse available during much of the year. There is a marina at Holyhead and several golf courses within close proximity, notably at Holyhead and Bull Bay, and there is also windsurfing and kitesurfing at nearby Rhosneigr and Newborough. The waters generally around Anglesey provide opportunity for all sorts of other marine activities including sailing, fishing, lobster potting, water skiing, paddle boarding, diving and seeing the wonderful coastline and marine life which resides in the area. Trearddur Bay is a couple of miles or so away which provides a wide range of amenities and sandy beaches. There is a Spar, Post Office, and several pubs/restaurants including the The Stores, Seacroft, Sea Shanty and Ocean’s Edge. There is also a highly popular sailing club and RYA training centre in Trearddur. Holyhead is 2 miles away with a retail park including several supermarkets and department stores.
COMMUNICATIONS
Ysbryd y Mor benefits from excellent road communications being within 2 miles of the A55 Expressway facilitating easy access across Anglesey and the North Wales coast to Cheshire and linking with the national motorway network. For travel further afield there is a direct rail service from Holyhead to London Euston and a ferry service to Dun Laoghaire. Hawarden has a private airport and there are international airports in Liverpool and Manchester.
OUTSIDE
The property is approached via a gravel drive with stone splayed entrance to expansive parking areas in front of the building. The gardens are to the seaward side of the house and are laid to lawn with sunken trampoline and wide flagged terrace set within each gable of the building providing for an extremely private outdoor seating area from which the views are spectacular. To the rear of the house and between the neighbouring properties is a stoned area which provides a useful storage area or scope for further garden stores if required. To the side of the garage there is planning permission for an additional garage. The remainder of the land is sub-divided into 3 fields which are all down to grass and fenced. They provide excellent grazing for horses or livestock, and there is independent access from the lane into the northerly most field. In that connection, Ysbryd y Mor has the benefit of a right of access over the drive to one of the neighbouring properties, Ty’n Nant, for the purposes of maintenance and emptying of the Treatment Plant. Another property, Ysbryd y Mynydd, has vehicular access over the initial part of the drive, but there is planning permission granted for an independent access from the lane for Ysbryd y Mynydd.
