Bannel Lane, Penymynydd, Flintshire

Oak Tree Farm offers the exciting opportunity to purchase a substantial complex, including a charming four-bedroomed family home, equestrian facilities, several versatile outbuildings and over 8 acres of paddock, located in a popular Welsh village setting within easy reach of Chester and the surrounding market towns and cities.

The home is accessed via an entrance space off which is a utility room, cloakroom and store cupboard housing the one year old boiler. From here an inner hall leads to a well-proportioned bedroom, and an elegant family bathroom. With the facilities provided, this area could be closed off to provide private accommodation for multi-generational living, if so required. The main reception rooms include a 22 ft. drawing room with a stairway to the first floor, wooden floorboards, a brick fireplace with wood-burning stove, full height windows and door to the rear terrace, an adjacent bright study also opening to the garden, and further, a cosy snug with ceiling timbers, a wood burner and brick fireplace.

The sizeable kitchen and breakfast room houses wall and base cabinetry, worksurfaces and appliances, including an inset red three-oven AGA range, a separate oven range and gas hob and an inset butler sink. It opens naturally into the large conservatory with delightful views and access out to the garden. The first-floor landing branches off onto a trio of well-proportioned bedrooms with elevated aspects, and an additional luxury bathroom.

The site is surrounded by open countryside and approached through electric gates to a driveway and forecourt. From here is an expanse of hardstanding beside the timber and brick-built stables, and a pair of static homes providing holiday let income. Further through wooden gates is the house, stone built stables, garaging storage and carport. Many of the outbuildings are supplied with electrics and water. The house has a well-sized enclosed rear garden with a substantial lawn, a kitchen garden, greenhouse and fruit trees to the rear, a paved sun terrace, and a variety of mature hedges, planting and a willow tree. Alongside this is the manège, and the fields and paddocks extend further. The property also has the benefit of fitted solar panels to the roof and air source central heating.

The vendors run a successful livery business at the property. A further barn with private road access is available by separate negotiation.
