Some unique views from a home are good, and some are absolutely incredible and worth gazing at and absorbing for hours.
This period property has a perfect, panoramic view of water, of sand, of mountains and of sky from its windows, gardens and the 17 acres of woodland and pasture that comes with it.
Save electricity and turn off the television and just be constantly entertained by the ever-changing Welsh weather, the ebb and flow of the crystal blue water stretching out in front of you and the birds and wildlife taking care of their daily business.

The period cottage is nestled into a hillside overlooking the glorious Mawddach Estuary where it meets the sea at Barmouth in Ceredigion so you won't be stuck for water-based activities to choose from.
From sailing to surfing, rambling to rock-climbing, porpoise spotting to paddle-boarding, this area along the coast of Cardigan Bay can satisfy most people's outdoor desires.
Then there's the cafes, pubs and restaurants nearby as well as the vast interior of Wales' countryside calling you away from the coast for a day exploring the hills and valleys.
But there's plenty to keep you at home here too - not just the mesmerising views but also two acres of land that actually includes a section on the Mawddach Estuary river bank, as well as the remaining 15 acres that surround the house.
Woodland walks, fishing on the river bank, picnic in your own pastureland - these are all daily opportunities to get out and enjoy becoming immersed in nature within your own private land.
But don't forget to add dedicated time doing nothing on a lounger on the patio or lawn into your busy schedule.
And that's the beauty of this building - it has a front row, private seat to one of the most stunning estuaries in Wales.
It's flanked by the famous Cader Idris mountain and multiple peaks on the horizon, and so much land to get lost in, with no nearby neighbours to disturb your enjoyment.
There's private access to the estuary beach and the surrounding water channels too, so a tasty mix of land and water is a constant theme at this home located to satisfy anyone's rural retreat appetite.
The land, as well as nature's gem, could sparkle with income potential too, if this house called Ceinewydd Farm needs to earn its keep.
According to the estate agent selling the characterful home there are three static caravans on site, all of which are connected to services. There are also two tourer caravans on the land which are presently holiday lets.
Previously the site was home to two yurts before the touring caravans arrived, so a new owner can restart one, or all, of these income streams when they arrive.
The house is thought to be around 200 years old, so inside there are charming period features to explore as well as modern alterations and additions that make this a comfortable property to call home.
A stable-door leads into the core of the home that oozes vintage charm expected by most potential buyers when visiting a cottage.
The room is dominated by the exposed stone chimney breast with massive and impressive stone mantel and a robust looking log burner that must roar out the heat in the depths of winter.
Of course there are exposed ceiling beams and a slate tile floor, although hard to date if these are original or appropriate later additions to the cottage.
An intriguing door in this room leads to a handy storeroom and in this room can also be found the staircase tucked into the corner, allowing more space for ample seating.
A charming latch and brace door takes you into the dining room, with the slate flooring following you in and keeping the cottage character going.
The floor is joined by more exposed beams and an ornate slate tiled fireplace and white-washed stone wall to complete the period property picture.
This is an intimate and pretty dining space that any guest would love to visit, regardless of the standard of the food being served.
Between the two reception rooms is the rustic, cottage-character kitchen with stone walls white-washed, looking so characterful and bringing a tactile feel to the room. Who wants smooth walls when you live in a vintage cottage?
The beams and rustic old internal door add authentic country-cottage features that are a joy to behold, as is the chunky Rayburn solid fuel range tucked into the chimney breast and the Belfast sink tempting you to do the washing-up in style; eventually.

For further cooking delights, there's an additional Flavel cooker with gas hob and electric oven, plus a central island providing more preparation space and a spot for people to linger and chat.
The slate floor continues and the choice of wood work surfaces and white units to match the white walls brings the interior design of the space to a visually-appealing conclusion.
At the far end of the cottage there's an additional garden room that offers extra places to park and partake of the pretty amazing, panoramic views, as well as French doors out to the sunny terrace for easy access to the garden and land if the rain ever stops.
Up the stairs and the cottage can offer three double bedrooms and a bathroom, all accompanied by those eternally captivating views.
As lovely as potential buyers might consider the cottage to be, the land and the location are nature's icing on this yummy coastal proposition, so tuck-in and enjoy yourself.
