Originally constructed in 1870 as a ship's warehouse, this property has evolved through meticulous restoration and conversion, culminating in its present incarnation that marries historical significance with modern functionality.Storws Fawr's stone and slate structure stands as a testament to Aberaeron's storied past, where its proximity to the quay facilitated bustling maritime activity. This historic connection is commemorated with a plaque, highlighting its inclusion in the town's historical trail, offering a glimpse into the era when ships and warehouses lined the quayside. The transformation undertaken in 2006 stripped the building back to its essence, replacing aged wooden floors with steel frames and concrete, infused with underfloor heating for contemporary comfort. This careful restoration has ensured the structural integrity of the building, with steelwork that is both a practical and aesthetic nod to its resilient foundation. Detailed plans and architect's drawings are available to showcase the extent of this renovation.The interior space is thoughtfully designed, featuring a mix of glass and oak divisions that complement the property's robust character. A notable architectural feature is the wooden staircase, crafted from century-old oak repurposed from Llanbadarn Church in Aberystwyth, adding a layer of historical resonance to the property's modern adaptations. The potential for a rooftop garden or balcony, accessible through a section of the removable roof, offers panoramic views of the seaside, inviting the outside in and providing a tranquil retreat amidst the town's bustling energy.In March 2024, Storws Fawr embraced a new chapter with the acquisition of "change of use" permission, enabling the transformation of its upper floors into residential spaces. This flexibility allows for a blend of commercial and living spaces, with the ground floor ideal for workshops, rental, or office use, and a vast basement accessible by lift, offering endless possibilities for storage or creative endeavours such as a pottery studio or other creative spaces.Aberaeron's charm is not merely in its picturesque setting but in its community spirit and cultural vibrancy, hosting events that celebrate its maritime heritage and local craftsmanship. Owning a property like Storws Fawr not only offers a unique dwelling or business premise but also an invitation to become part of a town that cherishes its history while embracing the future. This exceptional property, steeped in history and restored with meticulous attention to detail, presents a rare opportunity to inhabit a space where the past and present converge in harmony.GROUND FLOOREntrance:
