A stunning barn conversion with large gardens and land extending to circa 1.67 acres and enjoying panoramic views.
Situation
This substantial country home occupies an elevated position amidst beautiful countryside outside the small village of Minera some 4.5 miles from Wrexham. The property enjoys spectacular panoramic views over the Cheshire Plain, the Shropshire Hills and beyond and is situated within 3 miles of Coedpoeth which offers a range of amenities to include several convenience stores, public houses, Health Centre, hairdressers and beauty salon.
The town of Wrexham which is soon to become the seventh city in Wales, provides a comprehensive range of shopping and leisure facilities, as does the historic city of Chester.
Places of interest within close proximity include the Minera Lead Mines and Country Park and World’s End both of which are popular with walkers and cyclists, and the One Planet Adventure centre at Llandegla for mountain bike enthusiasts. Bangor-on-Dee Racecourse is situated 11 miles away and there are golf courses at Moss Valley and Wrexham.
On the educational front, there are English and Welsh speaking primary schools in Coedpoeth and secondary education at Clywedog, Wrexham. Independent schools include Moreton Hall, Ellesmere College and Kings and Queens Schools in Chester.
The A483 links to the A55 and to the motorway networks beyond giving access to the North Wales Coastal towns and the commercial centres of the Northwest.
The Property
Originally an outbuilding and barn dating back to circa 1780, the property has been imaginatively renovated and partially rebuilt by the present owner over recent years and was completed around 2010. A striking feature of the property is the circular tower which was constructed to connect the two buildings and its Welsh slate staircase leading to the 1st floor. The layout is individual with one half comprising the kitchen, dining room, first floor bedrooms and small bathroom, together with the utility room and access to the large garage. The other larger barn provides the principal living accommodation, main bedrooms and bathroom facilities. The character features combined with high quality fittings are evident throughout the whole of the property. Outside, the property sits in extensive grounds extending to circa 1.67 acres comprising pleasant gardens, rockeries, ample parking to the front and an area of land to the rear adjacent to the lane.
The Accommodation
Wide stone steps lead up from the parking area to the front door and into the curved hallway with exposed stone walls and Welsh slate flooring throughout extending up to the first floor via the semi-circular staircase. On the ground floor is situated the main bedroom with built in wardrobe and en-suite W.C and wash basin, and bedroom two also with a built-in wardrobe. The contemporary bathroom has a corner bath, vanity wash basin, W.C with concealed cistern and linen cupboard and there is a separate shower room with Travertine style wall and floor tiling and fixed head rain shower.
On the first floor the lounge is full of character and benefits from the spectacular far reaching views. It features a log burner in a stone fireplace with timber mantle above, exposed roof trusses and a stained glass window. The adjacent large study is a versatile room above which is a mezzanine floor with Velux roof windows (no fixed stair access).
A step down from the reception hall leads in to the dining room with slate flooring, beamed ceiling, exposed stone wall and cast-iron spiral staircase to the 1st floor and leading to the kitchen with light oak fronted units featuring a central island and with oak and granite work surfaces with twin Belfast sink. Appliances include double eye level oven with microwave,4 plate hob fridge/freezer and dishwasher and a Rayburn Nouvelle range cooker. The utility room is fitted with a range of units and a cloakroom/WC is situated at the far end. Access to the garage is via a door off the utility room with steps leading downwards.
The spiral staircase from the dining room leads up to the upstairs bright and airy rooms which offer a considerable amount of versatility. The stairs lead into a bedroom/sitting area with undereaves storage and Velux roof windows and door to a further bedroom. A door and entrance with limited height access leads to the bathroom which is fitted with a half size corner bath, WC and wash basin. A further door leads to a good size bedroom/dressing room which is divided into two area and has an excellent range of fitted wardrobes.
Outside & Gardens
The Barn is accessed over a large open driveway providing ample parking and turning space for several vehicles. To the left of the entrance is a good size gated area providing additional parking or other use and a stone built outhouse. A lawned front garden and well-stocked rockery adjoin the stone steps leading up to the house and the main private, secluded gardens are situated to the side of the property. Particularly well landscaped with pathway adjacent the lawned garden is situated to make the most of the stunning views. With stocked borders providing an array of colour, there is also a terrace and barbecue area. Stone walls form the boundary of the garden and an archway leads to the gravelled patio/play area with decking and continuing to the rear of the house where the fired boiler is situated.
The property benefits form an additional area of land which extends to the rear of the house and runs alongside the lane. This is a haven for wildlife and is planted with numerous trees and wild flowers, with a small brook flowing through. In all the land extends to circa 1.67 acres.
The integral large garage is well constructed and benefits from a reinforced concrete floor, large inspection pit and hoist system. Access is via two sets of full height double doors.
