The extension holds a fully furnished kitchen, dining room, conservatory and shower room with a top of the range shower with water jets and drencher.
The conservatory is in reaching distance of a stream that flows through the property to the Afon Alwen, which lies adjacent the the “Brenig Way”, a diverse and beautiful country walk that takes you along wooded pathways and green meadows.
