Description

This property presents a unique renovation project, situated in the scenic Welsh Borders with breathtaking views that stretch for miles. It encompasses a former dwelling and barn, set on approximately 22.7 acres of land, creating an ideal foundation for those looking to invest in a rural retreat or undertake a significant renovation. Nestled just north of Hyssington village near Montgomery, this off-grid property enjoys tranquil surroundings accessed via a narrow unmade lane. The area is characterized by its picturesque landscapes, located close to historic sites such as Offa's Dyke and only a few miles from Bishop's Castle and Churchstoke. This serene environment not only offers natural beauty but also positions the property favorably for potential future development. The existing structures include a former dwelling that has fallen into disrepair but holds considerable potential for those interested in restoring it, subject to obtaining planning consent. A positive pre-planning application response suggests that redevelopment opportunities may be feasible. The accompanying barn, although similarly deteriorated, is conveniently positioned adjacent to the former dwelling, providing additional options for conversion or expansion. Among the property's notable features is the expansive land itself—22.7 acres of grazing fields rising to a plateau with panoramic views. Spring water access adds both convenience and sustainability to any future plans while ensuring compliance with off-grid living requirements. Prospective buyers will appreciate the opportunity not only to restore an abandoned property but also to create a personalized retreat in one of Wales' most tranquil regions. The local planning authority has indicated receptiveness towards residential planning applications for this type of development, which could translate into significant investment potential. While currently off-grid and devoid of electricity, there are nearby mains water connections available for development consideration. Historical telephone service connected to the property indicates previous utility access, which could facilitate modern infrastructure upgrades. This location genuinely invites exploration and creativity in renovation or redevelopment endeavors while offering an escape into nature—perfectly suited for individuals seeking peace away from urban life.
