The present mansion house, Plas Glynllifon, was built in 1836–48 to the designs of Edward Haycock, a Shrewsbury architect, and succeeded at least three previous houses on the site. The original building predated a rebuilding c.1600, which itself was rebuilt in 1751. That house, a 'moderatesized brick mansion', was destroyed by a major fire in 1836. The rebuilding that followed and an extension in 188990 largely form the house that exists today.
The house is a neoclassical 3story building with an attached lower service courtyard to the west and an asymmetrical 13bay southfacing facade dominated by a central hexastyle pedimented portico. It is built of stone with rendered elevations under a slate roof with rendered chimney stacks topped by molded cornices and an Italianate water tank.
Glynllifon was the seat of the Glynn family until 1700 when it passed to the Wynn family of Bodvean. Sir Thomas John Wynn became the 1st Baron Newborough in 1776 and Glynllifon passed down the family to Frederick George Wynn, the 3rd Lord Newborough's youngest son.
The house is now in rough condition with renovation projects to be unsuccessful.
