Energy-efficient barn conversion on a large plot, close to Guilsfield village amenities..
Three-bedroom barn conversion with oak beams and log burner
Varchoel Villa Barn is a spacious three-bedroom barn conversion set on a large plot just outside Guilsfield village. The house combines rural character—exposed oak beams, a log burner and a bright garden room—with energy-efficient upgrades that reduce running costs. An EPC rating of B reflects installed solar panels, an EV charger and a modern heat pump alongside existing oil-fired heating.
Practical space is a strong selling point: a wide gravel driveway, double carport with storage above and a detached double garage with a useful room over offer plenty of parking, workshop or hobby potential. The layout across multiple storeys provides flexible living for families or those needing home-office space; total internal area is about 1,162 sq ft with six main rooms and two bathrooms.
Note the few material points to weigh: the property’s main fuel is recorded as oil and the boiler with radiators remains in place, so complete reliance on the heat pump may not yet be established. The area scores as very deprived for wider deprivation indices and council tax is above average—both relevant for long-term costs and resale considerations. Double glazing is present but was installed before 2002 and may benefit from inspection or selective upgrading.
For buyers seeking village life with easy access to Welshpool and nearby market towns, this home brings character, low-energy features and significant outbuilding potential. Its position in a quiet rural community suits families, hobbyists and those wanting an eco-minded country base with scope to personalise further.
