Pen Y Sarn is a substantial rural opportunity on about 2.51 acres, with full planning permission granted (Application 24/1438/FUL, June 2025) to demolish the existing buildings and construct a new five-bedroom, four-bathroom house with generous open-plan living. The approved scheme includes refurbishment of an outbuilding, formation of a new access, a replacement sewage treatment plant and private water by borehole — practical infrastructure for a self-sufficient country home.
Set in an attractive farming landscape on the Powys–Shropshire border, the plot includes a paddock and expansive, tree-lined fields that will suit families wanting outdoor space, horses or smallholding use. Local services in Llansantffraid are about three miles away; larger centres such as Oswestry, Welshpool and Llanfyllin are within ten miles for schools, medical services and shops.
This sale is aimed at a buyer prepared to follow through on the approved build or to manage a sympathetic rebuild/refurbishment. The drawings provided are artist impressions and should be independently verified; costs and practicalities of construction, drilling a borehole and installing the approved sewage plant should be factored in. The property is remote with excellent mobile signal but very slow broadband, and the wider area records higher deprivation — important practical considerations for day-to-day living.
Overall this is a rare chance to deliver a sizeable, characterful family home on a large plot in a scenic rural setting. The site offers scope for equestrian, hobby farming or simply generous private grounds, but it requires a buyer comfortable with a new-build development on a remote site and associated infrastructure works.
