Description

Waterloo House, also known as Beddgelert Antiques and Tea Rooms, is an L-shaped house built in the second quarter or mid 19th century. It has two storeys with an attic and is raised above a basement. The building is constructed of squared and coursed stone blocks and is topped with a modern slate roof featuring plain bargeboards.

The left section of the house is gabled and flush with the street line, while the right section is slightly recessed, with each section consisting of one generous bay. The entrance to the right section is through a slated canopy porch that extends into the corner, leading to a modern door. This entrance is accessed by a flight of five railed stone steps.

The right section has modern windows in its primary openings, including a smaller basement window. The left section features a modern small-pane bowed shop front with a nearby modern entrance on the ground floor. Above this is a 19th-century tripartite sash window, which has a central 12-pane section flanked by two 4-pane sections. In the gable apex, there is a plain 4-pane 19th-century sash window in the attic floor.

Adjoining the right side of the house is a continuously-roofed and flush link section of one bay that connects to the Prince Llewelyn Hotel. This section includes a 12-pane 19th-century window on the second floor and a modern small-pane casement window on the first floor.
