Description
Ty Isaf, also known as the NW Cottage, is a two-storey building featuring a slate roof and three squat stacks topped with square yellow crested chimney-pots. The earlier southeast section of the house is pebbledashed and has a three-window range. To the left, there is an addition that is two-window in rubble stone but maintains similar sized openings. The original part has hornless 16-pane sash windows, a six-panel door, and a three-pane overlight, with the facade offset to the right. The addition features four-pane horned sashes, with the right window and the door positioned against the original corner, while the other windows are roughly central. Ground floor openings have slab lintels, and there is a ledged door. Additionally, there is a stone lean-to on the left end wall.
