An uncommon Grade II listed former estate lodge set in about 0.85 acre of mature, sheltered gardens with far-reaching views to Powis Castle. The house retains strong period character—high ceilings, sash windows with shutters, ornate fireplaces and dressed stone elevations—yet clearly requires modernisation throughout. Its generous reception rooms, conservatory and useful office create a comfortable family layout with good circulation and scope for sympathetic updating.
Practical features include a large detached garage/workshop with electric roller door and inspection pit, additional outbuildings, oil-fired central heating and a useful utility/boot area. The property is offered chain-free and sits in a quiet, rural position reached by a forestry track right of way approximately three miles from Welshpool, making it attractive for buyers seeking privacy but reasonable access to town facilities.
Buyers should note its listed status will restrict some alterations and may complicate maintenance works. The house needs renovation and upgrading; expect work on finishes, systems and modern comforts. Flooding risk from surface water is high in places, despite very low river and coastal risk, so garden drainage and access points should be reviewed.
This is a rare lifestyle opportunity for a family or buyer who values period character, space and mature gardens and who is prepared to manage listed-property constraints and renovation. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, setting and potential of the house and grounds.
