Description - Halls are delighted with instructions to offer Ploughmans Cottage in Wrexham for sale by private treaty.

Ploughman's Cottage is a substantial Grade II listed period country cottage which has, over the years been subject to a range of extensions and improvements for use under a number of guises, including a public house, but which now stands as an impressive country home providing over 2,500 sq ft of characterful and sympathetically modernised living accommodation offering a flexible and versatile arrangement to cater to a variety of demographics, including scope for use by multi-generational families.

At present, the property enjoys an array of generously proportioned rooms retaining a wealth of traditional features, these situated across two floor and currently comprising, on the ground floor, an Entrance Hall, Living Room, Family Room, Cloakroom, Kitchen, Utility Room, Dining Room, a further Reception Room (with adjoining En-Suite), and rear Hall, together with four first floor Bedrooms, one of which is independently accessed.

The property is positioned within generous gardens which extend, in all, to around 0.29ac; accessed off a quiet country lane onto a substantial gravelled driveway situated to the front of the home and providing space for a number of vehicles. To the side and rear of the property are private gardens which enjoy a desirable southerly aspect and presently comprise an expanse of lawn bordered by established floral and herbaceous beds, alongside an attractive paved patio area and a number of mature trees.

Ploughmans Cottage is complemented by a number of useful and versatile outbuildings with, adjoining the property to the east, a Stable which could readily serve a variety of onward usages or (LA consent permitting) be assumed into the living accommodation. Situated within the gardens is a further outbuilding ideal for general storage.

Situation - Ploughmans Cottage is peacefully situated in the hamlet of Bowling Bank and nestles within the gently undulating landscape of the Welsh/English border, with open farmland in abundance in all directions. The property lies roughly equidistant between the well-regarded villages of Farndon, Malpas, and Bangor-On-Dee, all of which offer a range of local amenities, including Schools, Shops, and Public Houses, and is conveniently positioned for access to the cities of Chester and Wrexham.

Schooling - Within a short drive are a number of highly rated state and private schools, including: St. Pauls Primary, Holt School, St. Christopher’s School, Bryn Tirion School, The Maelor School, and the King’s and Queen’s schools in Chester.

The Property - The property provides principal access via a partially enclosed front entrance porch which opens into a Reception Hall with flagstone floors, window onto the front elevation and a multi-fuel burner positioned within an exposed brickwork inglenook, and from where a door leads immediately to the right into a generously proportioned Living Room with dual-aspect windows, a further multi-fuel burner, and a planned walkway which opens into a versatile room ideal for use as a Snug or Family Room, with a door which openis directly onto the garden and a further door which leads into a Cloakroom.

Turning to the left from the Reception Hall, one enters a modernised Kitchen which has been sympathetically improved to retain vestiges of the property's history whilst providing all the comforts of modernity, with a range of base and wall units and integrated appliances, with a Rayburn elegantly nestled within an exposed brickwork inglenook. The Kitchen meanders through to a partially separated Dining/Breakfast area offering wonderful views across the rear gardens, and a door which opens onto the same.

A further door leads off the Kitchen into a Rear Lobby with rear access door into the garden and an internal door which provides access into a versatile room most recently utilised as a further Reception Room, with two-windows onto the front elevation and stairs which rise to a separate first floor double Bedroom, alongside an adjoining En-Suite Bathroom containing a modern white suite.

This element of the property provides excellent potential for use as independent living accommodation, either for dependants/guests, or for short-term holiday letting.
