Description

This property presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment in a tranquil rural setting near the village of Llansilin. Comprising a detached barn and accompanying cottage, the site boasts stunning views of the surrounding countryside, making it an ideal canvas for those looking to create residential spaces. With full planning permission already secured for conversion, the barn is designed to accommodate four bedrooms, while the cottage will offer three bedrooms. The proposed layouts provide ample living space, with the barn extending to approximately 1,968 sq. ft. and the cottage around 941 sq. ft., allowing for comfortable family living or potential rental income. Set within a generous plot of about 0.25 acres, this property includes a Dutch barn that could serve various purposes—ranging from additional storage to potential covered parking—while also offering an excellent vantage point to enjoy the scenic landscape. Located just 1.5 miles from Llansilin, residents can benefit from local amenities such as a community shop/post office, a pub, and primary schooling. Additionally, its position allows for easy access to larger towns like Oswestry and Shrewsbury, as well as Chester city center. Public transport options are readily available with Gobowen train station nearby, providing mainline connections. Utilities will need to be established by the new owners; mains electricity is accessible in the vicinity, but purchasers will need to arrange for a private water supply and install a sewage treatment plant for drainage. The property's freehold tenure ensures ownership security upon completion. Interested parties are encouraged to arrange viewings through our office while adhering to safety guidelines due to the proximity of active farming operations. This property is not merely an acquisition but rather an investment in potential—a chance to develop two distinct living spaces amidst one of Wales' most picturesque rural landscapes.
