Located on the outskirts of the popular North Wales village of Cefn Mawr, Old Bank Buildings is a striking example of exuberant 1900’s architecture with rich moulded local red brick detailing over a classically symmetrical Cefn stone facade, sitting under a re-slated roof.
Having been the subject of a recent comprehensive Architect led renovation, this former Bank now provides flexible and unique accommodation, set out over 5 storey's with the potential of adding a further garden room at basement level.
Character is not in short supply, with an abundance of period features including wall panelling, tiled floors and Victorian cast iron radiators, along with wooden sash windows and shutters and original stained glass doors.
Restored to its former glory by the current vendors, Old Bank Buildings has received an award from the Wrexham Area Civic Society for Architectural Conservation.

Location
Cefn Mawr falls within the central section of the World Heritage Site and it is less than a mile from the property to the UNESCO Pontcysyllte Aqueduct and popular canal paths to Llangollen and Chirk.
Ty Mawr Country Park, located adjacent to the Cefn Viaduct is also within a short walking distance and the A483 trunk road to Chester (18 miles) to the north and Oswestry (9 miles) and Shrewsbury to the south is readily accessible, providing for daily commuting to the commercial and industrial centres of the region.
Cefn Mawr provides a range of local amenities, including both primary and secondary schools, local shopping and a Tesco supermarket, GP surgeries, library and social resources.
Nearby is Cefn Druids football club, a leisure centre which offers a well-equipped gym and swimming pool, along with its extremely popular wave machine.
The town of Llangollen is less than 5 miles away. Famous for its annual International world renowned Eisteddfod. Steeped in myth and legend Llangollen is a haven for walkers and tourists of all ages. Wrexham town centre is approximately 7 miles away. Home to the Racecourse Ground, Wrexham Association Football Club has experienced a recent boom in attention since the club was purchased by two Hollywood actors.
