You can watch as the world passes you by or look out over the picturesque Llandudno Bay - watch the R.N.L.I. Shannon Class Lifeboat and its sister inshore D Class inflatable being put through its passes and the jet powered speed boats zoom across the glistening water between the two headlands.

You've also got Bodafon Fields and the Nant y Gamar hillside on your doorstep and off in the distance you will find the Conwy Mountains. You literally have it all when it comes to views.

Craig Lodge, we are told was built circa 1927, and features a Dutch Barn elevation, more recently the property has been in the same family for the past 30 years and has been cared for and grown with their families. The property has been completely refurbished by the current owners, including re-plastering, re-plumbed, re-decorated throughout using a pallet of 'Farrell & Ball' shades, plus a new heating system and radiators installed, new carpets and curtains fitted throughout. That's just to name a few things. They have also reconfigured the original garage to create more rooms downstairs and added a walk in wardrobe and en-suite shower room to the principal bedroom on the first floor.

Location wise you are in the perfect spot. For those keen walkers you can step out your front door and within a few hundred yards onto the Little Orme. Nant y Gamar hillside is also close and boasts some scenic walking paths, or the North Shore is just a short journey down the road for those that prefer walking or cycling along the seaside path to Conwy. You have easy access to Llandudno and its array of shops, restaurants, and cafes, as well as the seaside town's two major shopping parks for those shopaholics out there. It is also just a short drive to the area's other most popular seaside town - Rhos-on-Sea. The A55 is close by allowing you to travel further afield, if you ever decide to leave the house.
There are a variety of public transport links on your doorstep too.

UNIQUE ROOMS
The first floor bathroom - the best time to have a bath is when there is a storm, according to the Vendor. Just imagine, lying back in the bath, closing your eyes and listening to the waves as they crash against the shore and the rain pitter pattering against the window.

"You feel like you can reach out and touch the waves," the Vendor said. "It (the home) is obviously stunning on summer days but I absolutely love it when there is a storm. Having a bath on stormy night, you can't beat it."

Principal Bedroom - A beautifully presented, spacious bedroom with a bay window giving glimpses of the sea, taking in views of the Little Orme and then a window to the front where you can see the Nant y Gamar hillside and Conwy Mountains off in the distance. The current vendors have also installed a walk in wardrobe and an en-suite shower room, so you can get ready to go out without having to leave your room.

Garage - The original garage footprint was similar to the 40ft Balcony above, but has been reconfigured to provide the Study, Shower Room & Utility.

Open plan 'U' shapped living/dining room - The ground floor has a lovely flow to it. You walk in to the hallway and to your right you are greeted by the light & spacious living/dining room. This consists of two beautiful bay windows which let in plenty of light. Leads into
