Description

A stylishly presented, three-bedroom single-storey detached barn conversion boasting around 1,500 sq ft of elegantly appointed living accommodation, alongside generous gardens which extend to 0.25ac and border open countryside, peacefully situated within a well-regarded development in the hamlet of Old Marton.

Description - Halls are delighted with instructions to offer 1 The Beretuns for sale by private treaty.

1 The Beretuns is an impressive, single-storey barn conversion, which provides almost 1,500 sq ft of thoughtfully arranged and elegantly presented living accommodation with potential to cater to a variety of buyer demographics, whilst presently comprising an Entrance Hall, open-plan Kitchen/Dining space, Sitting Room, Utility Room, family Bathroom, and Three Bedrooms (with the Master enjoying an adjoining En-Suite).

The property is positioned within particularly notable gardens which extend, in all, to around 0.25ac and sit against a backdrop of open farmland whilst enjoying a westerly aspect which allows for glorious sunsets. The gardens have been tended to complement the much celebrated landscape within which the property nestles and, at present, feature expanses of lawn interspersed with, and bordered by, an array of mature planting, established floral beds, and native hedging, these joined by an attractive patio area.

Situation - The Beretuns is a select development of just 6 high-calibre barn conversions which lies within the rural hamlet of Old Marton, against a backdrop of undulating fields and unspoilt farmland, whilst retaining a convenient proximity to the nearby lakeland town of Ellesmere which provides a range of day to day amenities, including Schools, Supermarket, Public Houses, and Medical Facilities. The larger towns of Oswestry and Shrewsbury are positioned to the south-west and south-east respectively and offer a wider selection of facilities, with, to the north, the cities of Wrexham, Chester, and Liverpool all within commutable distance.

Schooling - The property is well situated for a number of well regarded state and private schools, including Criftins C of E Primary (rated outstanding), Ellesmere Primary, Lakelands Academy, St.Martins School, Gobowen Primary, Ellesmere College, Moreton Hall, and Oswestry School.

The Property - The property is principally accessed via a front door into a welcoming Entrance Hall, and where from to the right one enters into a striking open-plan Kitchen/Dining Room, this serving as the heart of this impressive home with a modern fully-integrated kitchen complete with a range of base and wall units; the room provides a wonderfully versatile and social space for families or entertaining and benefits from a single opening door and a bank of glazing overlooking the front courtyard. Accessed off the Kitchen/Dining Room is a useful and well proportioned Utility Room, boasting a single door which leads onto the rear gardens.

Accessed off the Kitchen/Dining Room is a generously proportioned and welcoming Living Room, boasting a log-burner of contemporary design, a single door which leads onto the rear gardens and double opening doors which open onto the well maintained front courtyard.

Turning left from the Entrance Hall access is provided to the three Bedrooms, all comfortably sized and with bedroom one benefitting from a en suite bathroom and single-opening door which exit onto the front gardens. The living accommodation is completed by a family Bathroom containing a modern white suite.

Outside - The gardens are a particularly notable feature of the property and extend, in all, to around 0.25 ac whilst boasting far-reaching views to the west across open farmland.

The gardens have been carefully crafted to serve as an extension to the bucolic and naturally abundant setting, featuring a significant expanse of lawn bordered by established floral beds and mature trees, alongside an attractive patio area, the latter representing an ideal spot for outdoor dining and entertaining, or simply for enjoying the calibre of the location.

The property is further complemented by allocated parking for two vehicles, situated to the side of the property, with further guest parking available.

Kitchen/Dining Room: 8.74m x 4.57m
