About this property

An iconic harbour side property and arguably one of the most photographed and instantly recognised properties in this highly acclaimed seaside village with unsurpassed harbour/sea views. ( main photograph kindly provided by Martin Turtle photography )

This is the first time ever that Compass Cottage has come onto the open market, having been in the same family ownership since the early 1950’s.

The property is one of the oldest stone built properties in Abersoch, formerly a fisherman’s cottage in the heart of the picturesque Inner Harbour and within a few hundred yards to all the amenities of the village. The property has a two storey extension which was constructed in1964 and in recent years the internal accommodation has been tastefully upgraded and beautifully re decorated and is now immaculately presented with deceptively spacious centrally heated 4 bedroom accommodation. Over the past 8 years the house has been an extremely successful holiday let with many customers returning each year. The average gross income per annum between April 2019 to April 2022 is £35,000 . The present layout provides an entrance hall, a feature living room, kitchen, dining room, secondary kitchen/

utility room and two bedrooms with a shower room. To the first floor lies the large master bedroom and an en suite bathroom and a further double bedroom. The main living room is to the heart of the home with wide dual aspect picture windows directly overlooking the Harbour and beyond towards Llanbedrog Headland and the clear waters of Cardigan Bay with Snowdon in the background. The accommodation is configured to allow it to be sub divided into two separate living units, if this is required.

This is a tidal Harbour and at high tide there is a hive of activity on the water with boats being launched just below the cottage and at low tide you can paddle across the river onto the sandy beach opposite.

Externally there is a delightful and very sunny raised terrace with infinity glass balustrade leading off both the living room and dining room with steps leading down to a paved rear garden and a useful dry basement for storage purposes. A gate onto a newly formed concrete slipway for boat launching and private parking for numerous vehicles. A smaller paved terrace overlooking the beach and sea.

A truly remarkable home in a unique unrivalled position.

Note : In accordance with the 1979 Estate Agents Act, the joint owner is an employee of Beresford Adams.
