Glyngarth, Menai Bridge, LL59

A spacious two bedroomed Penthouse apartment located on the second floor of this remarkable residence. Enjoying superb views and attention to detail that separates this property from your average dwelling. In addition to the staircase there is a lift to this floor which makes it all the more accessible.
Bryn Mel Manor is a grand residence with provenance to match, and a setting which will simply take your breath away - an elevated south easterly aspect provides you with a unique perspective overlooking the Menai Strait, a view commanding position poised directly opposite Bangor's Victorian Pier and taking in a magnificent Snowdonia vista that stretches from the Great Orme, giving you an almost 180? point of view towards the Menai Suspension bridge. This former Manor House resides within some 4 Acres which incorporates a long winding private driveway, passing a large pond on the descending approach with a large formal garden situated to the front. This striking residence can only be described as occupying one of the finest settings on the North Wales coast.
The manor was originally built in the late 19th century for a certain William Imrie of the White Star Shipping Company (owners of the ill-fated Titanic). It was built to an exacting standard using locally sourced materials, stone and Penrhyn slate and constructed in a typical Victorian style with thick walls, mullioned windows, ornate wood panelling with turrets and castellation's to several facades.
Bryn Mel Manor to this day has been restored to its former glory using skilled craftsmen and incorporating modern techniques and materials, the property has been renovated and refurbished to an exacting standard, to include modern heating systems, sound and heat insulation. The apartment features oak flooring and oak internal doors and modern double glazing. The apartment benefits from two designated parking spaces and a private car charging point.

Bryn Mel Manor is located in an idyllic setting in a most picturesque area of Anglesey on the periphery of the bustling town of Menai Bridge, renowned for its famous suspension bridge, choice of restaurants and hotels and local walks along the shoreline. This northern section of the Strait opens out into the fabulous Conwy Bay leading out to the Irish Sea, being sandwiched between the Snowdonia mountains to one side and Puffin Island on the other, just off the eastern tip of the island. Menai Bridge has a number of attractive traditional style shop frontages too catering for all your general day to day requirements, including a Waitrose supermarket. You can also expect excellentdining too with a choice of reputable eateries, taverns and restaurants. Naturally, having a sea faring heritage, the town is a popular place to launch and moor sailing vessels with repair facilities readily available.Menai Bridge town is opportunely placed for the many of the coastal and rural attractions (Beaumaris comes to mind) to be found on this part of the island and is approximately 1 miles from the A55 expressway, allowing rapid commuting throughout the island, to the mainland, passing by the acclaimed University city of Bangor which offers a vast range of shops and services together with a mainline rail service directly to London. The A55 ultimately links up with the UK motorway network.
