8 ACRES | COUNTRYSIDE VIEWS | ESTABLISHED BUSINESS | READY MADE INCOME

A truly rare opportunity to acquire a charming character farmhouse with approximately 8 acres, established income streams, equestrian facilities, and further business potential, all set within a stunning semi-rural position on Halkyn Mountain, Holywell, enjoying breathtaking panoramic countryside views across the Dee Estuary and towards the Wirral.

Originally dating back to circa 1600’s, this beautiful stone-built former Gaming Lodge is bursting with character and history, perfectly blending traditional cottage charm with versatile family living and commercial opportunity.

The property has been thoughtfully extended over the years, with a later addition in the 1980’s creating substantial additional accommodation. Today, the home offers generous and flexible living space including five bedrooms, three reception rooms, office space, utility room, and a handcrafted cottage-style kitchen, all beautifully presented throughout in keeping with the property's heritage and warmth. Character features can be found throughout the home, creating a cosy and welcoming atmosphere rarely found in modern properties.

Externally, the property continues to impress with approximately 8 acres of land, established equestrian facilities including 8 stables, tack room, and hay storage, making this an ideal opportunity for those with equestrian interests or lifestyle business ambitions. There are also two substantial workshops complete with electricity, ideal for the storage of machinery, providing practical support for maintaining the land and grounds.

Top Pen-Y-Parc Farm has held commercial use for over 45 years and currently benefits from multiple established income streams. The current owners have further enhanced the business potential with two static caravans, both complete with wood-fired hot tubs, offering successful holiday accommodation within this picturesque countryside setting. In addition, the property benefits from full planning permission for six glamping pods, presenting exciting scope for further tourism income and future expansion.
Further benefits include solar panels, adding to the property's efficiency and long-term sustainability.

Despite its peaceful and secluded setting, the property remains highly convenient for commuting and everyday amenities. Halkyn Village and its surrounding villages offer a range of local amenities including shops, public houses, primary school, and excellent countryside walking routes. The A55 expressway is within approximately 5 minutes, providing excellent access across North Wales and towards the North West. Chester City Centre can be reached in approximately 35 minutes, making this an exceptional opportunity for those seeking rural living without sacrificing accessibility.

One of the property's most remarkable features is undoubtedly its breathtaking and undisturbed 360-degree views. Surrounded by rolling countryside with spectacular outlooks across the Dee Estuary and towards the Wirral Peninsula, the setting offers complete tranquillity, privacy, and an ever-changing landscape to enjoy throughout the seasons.

Static Caravan Accommodation
This already established business further benefits from two static holiday caravans, both positioned to enjoy the property's stunning countryside setting and breathtaking far-reaching views. Each caravan benefits from its own private garden area, wood-fired hot tub, independent WiFi connection, and separate septic tank system, offering guests privacy, comfort, and a true countryside retreat experience.
The first caravan provides accommodation for up to four guests with two bedrooms, whilst the second caravan offers more flexible accommodation sleeping up to six guests, featuring two bedrooms alongside additional sleeping space within the living area. The second caravan also benefits from a decked balcony seating area, perfectly positioned to take in the spectacular surrounding countryside views. Both caravans are heated via Calor Gas.
These successful holiday lets offer the perfect escape for those looking to relax and unwind within the North Wales countryside, whilst also presenting an exciting opportunity for equestrian tourism. Guests are able to enjoy the surrounding acreage and nearby mountain bridle paths, making this an ideal destination for horse lovers wishing to bring their horses and experience scenic hacking routes across Halkyn Mountain. The lifestyle and business possibilities here are truly endless.

The handcrafted kitchen further features a traditional Rayburn, adding both character and practicality to the heart of the home, whilst LPG supplies the kitchen hob. Within the original cottage, a back boiler located in the snug provides additional heating, enhancing the property's traditional country charm and versatility.
