Situation - The Farm occupies an attractive rural position on the outskirts of Penley, surrounded by open countryside yet within convenient reach of the village and the wider road network.

Penley provides a useful range of everyday amenities, whilst the larger centres of Ellesmere, Whitchurch and Wrexham offer a more comprehensive selection of shops, services and recreational facilities. The surrounding countryside is predominantly agricultural in character, with a network of rural lanes and footpaths nearby.

Schooling - The property lies within a convenient distance of a number of well-regarded state and private schools, including The Madras Aided School, the Maelor School, Lakelands Academy, Ellesmere Primary School, Ellesmere College, Criftins C of E School, Oswestry School, Moreton Hall, and Shrewsbury College.

Directions - Leave Penley to the east via the A539 in the direction of Whitchurch, continuing for around 0.5 of a mile where the property will be situated on the right and identified by a Halls "For Sale" board.

The Property - The farmhouse is of traditional construction beneath a pitched slated roof and retains a number of features indicative of its age, including exposed timbers, original fireplaces and areas of exposed brickwork. The property has been largely stripped internally and now requires comprehensive renovation, providing an excellent opportunity for a purchaser to restore and remodel the accommodation to their own requirements.

The ground floor presently comprises a porch, kitchen, substantial reception room, dining room, utility and ancillary facilities. A staircase rises to the first floor where there are four bedrooms. The existing accommodation provides an excellent basis from which to create a characterful family home, with additional potential to extend or alter the existing layout, subject to statutory approval

Land & Gardens - The house is approached alongside the traditional farm buildings, with areas of hard-standing providing access and circulation around the property. Immediately surrounding the farmhouse are established lawned gardens enclosed in part by mature hedging and fencing, with attractive views over the adjoining countryside. The property is offered with land and grounds extending in all to approximately 7.12 acres (delineated in red), leading down to an access onto a small country lane to the south which provides an excellent addition, particularly for equestrians.

Outbuildings - The Farm benefits from an extensive and particularly useful range of traditional and agricultural outbuildings extending to in excess of 5,000 sq ft. These include a substantial brick/block-built range offering potential for conversion (STPP), a former agricultural Dutch barn/implement shed and a substantial steel-framed fabric covered multi-purpose building. The buildings provide considerable scope for agricultural, equestrian, storage or ancillary use, with possible alternative uses subject to obtaining any necessary planning or other statutory consents.
