Situated in an elevated position with far reaching farmland views this five-bedroom cottage offers a wealth of character and charm along with having a wide range of outbuilding including barns, hay barn, steel portal building and 1 acre paddock. The property also benefits form a 8.4Kw solar PV system with air source heat pump reducing running costs. The property has an incredible triple aspect sun room that enjoys fantastic views over the property, paddock and farmland beyond.

Situation - The property is situated close to the nearby market town of Welshpool (Y Trallwng), often regarded as the gateway to Mid Wales, provides a comprehensive range of shops, schools, healthcare, leisure facilities, and transport links. Welshpool is also home to attractions including Powis Castle, the Welshpool and Llanfair Light Railway, and the Montgomery Canal.

The town's railway station offers direct services to Shrewsbury, Birmingham, and the Cambrian Coast, with both Shrewsbury and Newtown within convenient commuting distance.

Accomodation - The front door opens into a welcoming and highly practical boot room, featuring an attractive quarry tiled floor and a traditional butler's sink.

This versatile space offers excellent potential to be separated from the main accommodation, creating a self-contained guest annex or holiday let, ideal for Air bnb or multigenerational living and providing an opportunity for additional income.

Adjoining the boot room is a cloakroom/WC, which offers scope to be reconfigured into a shower room, with the boot room serving as an open-plan living and kitchenette area if required.

A staircase rises from the boot room to a spacious first-floor room with an impressive vaulted ceiling, exposed floorboards. Filled with natural light from side and rear windows, together with a double-glazed rooflight, this delightful space is ideal as a generous bedroom, home office or studio.

The spacious kitchen/dining room is a wonderful blend of character and practicality, centred around an impressive stone inglenook fireplace complete with a traditional bread oven and slate hearth.

The well-appointed fitted kitchen provides ample storage and preparation space, together with space for an electric cooker. Exposed ceiling beams enhance the room's period charm, while windows to both the front and rear aspects allow an abundance of natural light to fill the space. A door to the rear provides convenient access to the parking area and gardens beyond.

Leading from the kitchen is a delightful dual-aspect sitting room, a warm and inviting space centred around a wood-burning stove.

Character features include tongue-and-groove panelling to one wall and exposed painted stonework to another, creating a cosy and welcoming atmosphere. French doors open seamlessly into the adjoining sun room.

The sun room is a wonderfully light-filled space, enjoying windows to three elevations that perfectly frame the far-reaching countryside views. Finished with attractive slate tiled flooring, it provides an ideal place to relax or entertain throughout the year, with French doors opening directly onto the rear terrace and gardens.

The first floor offers a well-proportioned and versatile arrangement of bedrooms, centred around a delightful principal suite featuring a vaulted ceiling and exposed floorboards, creating a wonderful sense of character and space. The adjoining en suite bathroom is equally charming, with exposed wall timbers adding to its period appeal.

In addition, there are two further generous double bedrooms, a comfortable single bedroom, and a well-appointed family shower room, providing excellent accommodation for both family living and visiting guests.

Externally - Externally, the property is approached through a gated entrance leading to an excellent range of traditional and modern outbuildings, including a former cowshed, useful store, an open-fronted three-bay hay barn, and a substantial steel portal-framed open-fronted barn. These versatile buildings offer excellent potential for a variety of uses, subject to any necessary consents. There is further gated gravelled parking and turning area to the rear of the cottage.
