Description - Halls are delighted with instructions to offer The Smithy in Bersham for sale by private treaty and with the benefit of no onward chain.
The Smithy is an attractive white-rendered period farmhouse which provides just under 1,700 sq ft of versatile living accommodation all of which now offers excellent potential for modernisation and improvement.
The property is enviably positioned within land and gardens which extend, in all, to around 6.75 acres, with a sweeping driveway leading to expanses of lawn which encompass the homestead and are interspersed by a range of mature trees and floral beds, before culminating at a range of versatile outbuildings. The gardens adjoin a substantial fenced paddock ideal for the grazing of livestock, this flanked to one side by the River Clywedog which runs along the northern boundary.
Situation - The property is peacefully situated within the traditional village of Bersham, which straddles the River Clywedog and enjoys a range of local amenities, including a Church, Public House, and the Bryn Tririon School, whilst retaining a particularly convenient proximity to the nearby cities of Wrexham and Chester, both of which provide a winder range of amenities of all kinds, including educational, recreational and shopping facilities. Liverpool lies just 45 minutes to the north and the north Wales coastline is easily accessible by car via the North Wales Expressway.
Directions - Leave Wrexham to the west via the A525, continuing for around 0.7 miles until a left hand turn leads onto Homestead Lane. At the T Junction, turn right onto Bersham Road and proceed for a further 0.7 miles where a right hand turn leads onto the B5098. Follow this road until a T junction, turning right to cross the river and the property will be located on the left, identified by a Halls "For Sale" board.
