Built circa 1810, this semi-detached cottage combines original character with practical family space. Exposed beams, cast-iron fireplaces and timber tie-bars give strong period charm, while a generous kitchen-diner and separate conservatory provide versatile living and dining options. The conservatory could also serve as a ground-floor bedroom or home office.
Set in a hamlet on the Shropshire side of Gledrid, the house benefits from rural valley views (including Offa’s Dyke) and an expansive enclosed garden with a seating area. Off-street parking for several vehicles is a clear asset in this semi-rural location. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, and local schools and amenities are within easy reach of Chirk.
The property is freehold with a low council-tax Band B. Practical details: total internal area around 1,223 sq ft, single family bathroom, and multi-fuel heating including a Rayburn that provides hot water and heating. These features make the house well suited to families seeking character or buyers wanting a countryside retreat close to town links.
Buyers should note the solid-brick original construction likely lacks modern cavity insulation and some services and finishes are dated. Heating is mixed (room heaters / dual fuel) and some updating — particularly insulation, glazing verification and bathroom modernisation — may be required to improve comfort and running costs. A straightforward refurbishment would unlock the property’s full potential while preserving its historic features.
