1 Victoria Terrace, Beaumaris, LL58 8BU £645,000

Victoria Terrace is a particularly fine example of Regency architecture and is fully deserving of its Grade I listing. It is described as a well preserved late Georgian terrace of national importance and a vital contribution to the historical integrity of the Beaumaris seafront. The construction is of an attractive dressed stone with elegant sash windows, arched at ground floor level under a hipped slate roof with central gable. No 1 forms the southernmost part of Victoria Terrace having a particularly light and pleasant aspect across The Green, and Mountain Range. The quality and condition of the interior is as impressive as the building's exterior having been superbly restored by the present owners.
