About this property
This wonderfully unique Art Deco home is centrally-located in the town of Menai Bridge, near the coast just over the Telford Bridge on Anglesey. A semi-detached cottage with original period features and Art Deco-styling throughout, this beautifully-presented cottage provides light, airy and spacious accommodation that the whole family will enjoy. Approaching the cottage through an enclosed front patio from your private parking, you enter into a marble floored hallway, with the main sitting room to your left, furnished with contemporary Art Deco fixtures and furniture, which continue through the whole property. The kitchen and dining area are to the rear of the property and have been styled with a mirror tiled splash back, range cooker, and black and white floor tiles to complement the kitchen units.
Patio doors lead out onto decking with subtle LED lighting, offering a superb woodland lit area to chill out with a refreshing drink long into the evening. A ground floor bathroom has been similarly styled to continue the Art Deco theme and boasts a walk-in wet room shower. Three stylish bedrooms upstairs offer two king-size bedrooms and a double bedroom, with a further family bathroom with claw foot bath and walk in shower, making this an ideal cottage for a group of adults to enjoy. Menai offers a wide selection of shops and art galleries, along with an excellent waterfront restaurant and welcoming pubs.
The delights of Snowdonia are only a short drive, ideal for walking, climbing and mountain biking, or join the Anglesey Coastal Path which runs almost past the front door, and follow it along the coast where you can admire and take in outstanding views and scenery. This superb Art Deco cottage is an excellent destination for Menai town and the delights of Anglesey.
The Menai Strait is the stretch of water separating the Isle of Anglesey from the Welsh mainland. Often a brilliant blue, these shallow tidal waters are crossed by two bridges, allowing easy access to the attractions of Anglesey and the mainland. The castle and pier at Beaumaris make a lovely day out, or you can catch a boat to enjoy a trip out to Puffin Island. The Anglesey Coastal Path takes in beautiful scenery, and the island is home to many fine beaches including Rhosneigr, Trearddur Bay and Red Wharf Bay.

The location is fabulous, very easy to walk to shops restaurants and down to the water. Own parking which is really good. We had a slight issue with the boiler but the owner was very responsive and it was easily rectified. What lets this house down was the cleanliness. We had to wipe down the leather sofas( drinks splashes etc), the travel cot , and the washing machine was awful, full of scum and possibly pet hair, it is now gleaming after we cleaned it all as we needed it for the baby.Unfortunately there were only 5 plates and some items were chipped, mismatching etc.It sleeps 6 so should have at least that many plates , we had visitors for tea and they had to bring own plates. These things are a quick win and would have made a big difference.

15 as it was still being cleaned so all floors were still wet on arrival. No real complaints about the house, kitchen was a great size, beds clean and comfortable. Outside patio could do with a bit of tlc and shrubs cut back. House is conveniently placed for all amenities. Overlooks a brick wall and church so no real view but we didnât spend too much time in the property so didnât affect us that much. Parking for two cars up a narrow driveway so brush up on your reversing skills! Overall not bad for the price.
