DIRECTIONS From the A488/B4385 crossroads at Bishop's Castle head south-west on the A488 signed Clun/Knighton and after 0.5 mile turn right into The Pines and follow the drive straight on up to The Pines Barn as indicated by a Nick Champion 'For Sale' board.
SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION The Pines Barn is pleasantly situated just off the A488 on the edge of the Shropshire Hills AONB and is within 0.8 mile's walking distance of the centre of Bishop's Castle, a historic market town on the Shropshire/Welsh border.
The Pines Barn is a highly insulated barn conversion with weatherboard clad elevations under a slate tiled roof completed in 2016. The property has underfloor heating, a ground source heat pump and quality fittings throughout. The Pines Lodge is a separate bijou unit with roof mounted solar panels and holiday letting/AirBnB income potential within a popular tourist area. A useful modern farm building and Dutch barn complement the grassland and offer the potential for equestrian use. The property in total extends to about 15.31 acres, 6.186 ha. The property is offered for sale with no upward chain.
THE PINES BARN A part glazed door opens into the entrance hall with cloaks cupboard and a cloakroom with a vanity hand basin and wc. The sitting room has an engineered oak floor, an inset electric fire and fitted shelving. The open plan kitchen/dining room has a dining area with French doors to outside, an understairs cupboard, built-in storage cupboards with shelving which also house the Nibe Ground Source Heat Pump and unvented water cylinder, and the kitchen has a range of pale sage fitted units incorporating a stainless steel sink/drainer, and integral appliances including a Hotpoint electric double oven, a Stoves induction hob with extractor hood over, a Hotpoint dishwasher, and a Zanussi fridge and freezer. The adjacent utility room has pale sage fitted base units incorporating a stainless steel sink/drainer, plumbing for a washing machine, space for a tumble drier, and has a part glazed door to outside. Stairs from the entrance hall rise up to the first-floor landing leading to two spacious double bedrooms, each with fitted wardrobes and shelving units, and the bathroom which has a bath with a thermostatic shower over, a vanity basin, wc and heated towel rail.
THE PINES LODGE A 'Kingsland' timber building erected in 2010 as an agricultural mess room/store has a fully pine clad living room with an opening through to a kitchen area with wooden fitted units incorporating a stainless steel sink/drainer, an integral electric hob, and space for an undercounter fridge. The shower room has a Triton T80 electric shower in a large cubicle, a pedestal basin, wc and heated towel rail. A ladder from the living room gives access to a spacious mezzanine sleeping platform. The attached garage/store/workshop has power and light.
OUTSIDE The Pines Barn is approached via a shared driveway leading to a stoned parking and turning area with steps and a paved path leading up past a raised shrub and flower bed to the property which is enveloped by a lawn with paved seating areas.
THE FARM BUILDINGS Adjoining the drive is a useful modern three bay steel framed livestock/machinery/feed shed (48' x 24') constructed of concrete block and Yorkshire boarded elevations with a corrugated sheet roof which has twin sheeted gates to the front, with fitted concrete troughs, hay racks, water troughs, a feed passageway to the rear, and an adjacent secure storage area (22' x 10'6" internal) with external and internal access. A partially clad steel two bay Dutch barn (30' x 11') provides fodder and machinery storage and adjoins the gated driveway leading through to an informal grassed parking area for The Pines Lodge.
