Description

This captivating Grade II listed, four-bedroom semi-detached property offers a rare opportunity to step back in time and create your dream home. Nestled in a tranquil setting, the property boasts an abundance of character and the potential to become a true showstopper.

Inside, the charm unfolds. The open-plan kitchen/dining area features a magnificent inglenook fireplace - currently boarded up, but brimming with potential to be brought back to life. A light-filled living room with a nearly full-height sash window offers a glimpse of the idyllic surroundings. An art studio boasts a unique curved wall with the original bread oven, a captivating reminder of the property's rich history.

The accommodation extends across three floors. Two generous bedrooms and a family bathroom reside on the first floor, while two further bedrooms await discovery on the second.

A hidden gem lies to the rear of the kitchen. A utility area, an old washroom, and two additional rooms with character beams offer the potential for conversion into a delightful holiday let, a guest suite, or even an extension of the main living space - the possibilities are endless!

Step outside and embrace the tranquillity. A large garden unfolds at the rear, offering a private sanctuary. The front features a spacious gravel driveway, a charming courtyard garden, and a lush green lawn. The property overlooks a picturesque 2.5-acre field, available by separate negotiation, perfect for nature lovers or those seeking additional space. Additionally, a captivating barn stands proudly at the front of the property, also available for separate negotiation.

While this historic gem requires significant renovation, including a new roof and a complete electrical rewire, this has been factored into the attractive guide price. This presents a fantastic opportunity for discerning buyers to acquire a remarkable property steeped in history and personalise it to their taste. The potential to breathe new life into this charming home, along with the income potential from the outbuildings and the additional land, makes this a truly unique and rewarding project.

Nestled in a sweet spot just off the A483, this charming property bridges the gap between the bustling towns of Welshpool and Newtown. Stepping outside your door, you'll be greeted by the tranquil waters of the Montgomery Canal, a haven for walkers and cyclists seeking scenic adventures right on your doorstep. The canal teems with abundant birdlife and wildlife, offering a delightful spectacle for nature enthusiasts.

But the idyllic setting doesn't stop there. To the rear of the property, a flowing river beckons outdoor enthusiasts. Whether you're an avid fisherman, a passionate kayaker, or simply seeking a refreshing summer swim, this private oasis provides the perfect escape. Picture yourself casting a line, paddling through the gentle current, or enjoying a cooling dip on a hot summer's day - all within the peaceful embrace of your own backyard.

This ancient wonder creates a dappled canopy from June to October, boasting remarkable air-purifying properties. A generous expanse of lawn provides space for summertime fun, while a charming patio beckons for outdoor meals under the stars. Aspiring chefs will delight in the raised vegetable beds, and the ancient wisteria and grapevine climbing the outbuilding wall add a touch of fragrant charm. Beyond the garden, picturesque rolling fields and hills complete this idyllic scene, a constant reminder of the serene beauty that surrounds you.
