A remarkable Grade II listed, 17th-century townhouse in the heart of historic Beaumaris, combining centuries of character with beautifully versatile accommodation, a private walled courtyard and an exceptional vaulted principal bedroom.

Steeped in history and believed to date from around 1625, The Gatehouse is a truly individual property occupying a fascinating position on Castle Street, within the historic heart of Beaumaris.

For the past 40 years, The Gatehouse has been a much-loved family home, creating a wonderful sense of continuity and adding another special chapter to the story of this remarkable property.

But its history goes back much further. Before becoming a family home, the property was used as both a shop and a tearoom, meaning that generations of people have passed through its doors and it has played its own part in the life of Beaumaris.

From the moment you step inside, the character is unmistakable, with exposed beams, original features, generous proportions and an abundance of charm. Yet this is far from a home trapped in the past, offering wonderfully flexible accommodation arranged over three floors and providing plenty of space for modern living.

The ground floor provides a welcoming entrance into the home, with a particularly impressive sitting room featuring exposed beams, window seats and a striking inglenook fireplace. The kitchen and dining space provide a more sociable area for everyday living and entertaining, with access directly out to the private courtyard.

The first floor is particularly versatile. A large room overlooking Castle Street features two windows, both with window seats, and could work equally well as a generous bedroom, second sitting room, home office or snug. There is also a four-piece family bathroom and two interconnecting bedrooms.

One of the bedrooms benefits from access to the property’s delightful balcony/roof garden, overlooking the private courtyard below, this is a lovely additional outdoor space with timber balustrading and artificial grass, creating a private spot to sit and enjoy the surroundings.

A useful attic storage area is accessed halfway up the staircase, providing valuable additional storage.

The second floor is home to an impressive and exceptionally spacious bedroom, with a feature vaulted ceiling, exposed beams and two dormer windows overlooking the front of the property.  This is a wonderful principal bedroom with fitted storage and access to a modern en-suite shower room.

Externally, the property benefits from a private, block-paved and enclosed walled courtyard accessed directly from the kitchen. Raised beds and an outside light create a charming outdoor space, with access through to the utility/boiler room.

There is no allocated parking with the property, although on-street parking is available. Parking permits are also available to Beaumaris residents for nearby Beaumaris Green, currently at approximately £15 per annum.

The Gatehouse is a property that truly needs to be experienced. Combining genuine historical significance, beautifully preserved character, a fascinating past and a superb central location, it offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Beaumaris history while enjoying all the convenience of town-centre living.

With Beaumaris Castle, the waterfront, independent shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities all within easy reach, this is a home that places you right at the heart of one of Anglesey’s most sought-after and historic towns.

After four decades as a much-loved family home, The Gatehouse is now ready to begin its next chapter.

A unique home. A remarkable history. A very special address.
