Description
Situation: Tan Y Garth, a highly versatile 2-bedroom period residence occupying a prominent and well-connected position on the fringes of Welshampton, near Ellesmere. Offered to the market in need of full modernisation, this property presents a rare lifestyle and development package. Set within circa 1.9 acres of land and accompanied by a range of substantial outbuildings, its prime location on the main road (A495) offers unmatched ease of access, superb transport links, and excellent visibility.
Brimming with character, the cottage requires full renovation. This allows the incoming purchaser a blank canvas to completely modernise, reconfigure, or look into extending the footprint (subject to planning). The current layout comprises traditional ground floor reception spaces, while the first floor hosts two bedrooms overlooking the property's extensive private acreage to the rear.
The circa 1.9 acres of land open up a world of possibilities for smallholding use, or hobby equestrain use with a stable block in need of moderisation.
Positioned perfectly for commuters, Tan Y Garth offers swift road links via the A495 directly to Whitchurch, Ellesmere, Shrewsbury, and Wrexham. Despite its excellent connectivity, it remains deeply tied to the local community, sitting within close proximity of the highly regarded Welshampton C of E Primary School and just minutes from the scenic lakes and amenities of Ellesmere.
