EPC Rating - 20-G.
This property was until the late 1980's still used as a cow shed. The original stone and slate portion was converted to residential until the present owners took ownership three years ago who have provided a sympathetic refurbishment retaining original character features such as exposed stonework and beams together with a wrap-around single storey extension accommodating a stunning family / dining room / integrated kitchen with bi-folding doors to the garden. It now comprises a full height entrance hall, shower room, lounge with cast stove, the extension, inner hall, utility and boot rooms and a third bedroom. Upstairs a galleried landing leads to two double bedrooms and a bathroom. The property is oil centrally heated from a "Stanley" range cooker and double glazed to all but the utility. From measurements taken from the Ordnance Survey, the plot extends to approximately 0.255 acre which includes parking for at least four cars, a choice of seating areas to take advantage of the views and an orchard area.
Location
The property is situated on the fringe of the hamlet of Fron Isaf, close to the picturesque Ceiriog & Dee Valleys which offer a variety of activities including fishing, walking, pony trekking and mountain biking. There is an extensive array of local footpaths including Offa's Dyke along Stryt y Veri and both Chirk Castle & Pontcysyllte Aqueduct are about a mile away. The nearby town of Chirk (2 miles) has a range of shops and amenities while the A5/A483 offers direct links to the larger towns of Llangollen (6m), Oswestry (8m), Wrexham (10m) and Chester (20m).
