4 bedroom detached house

The property
Originally thought to have been three cottages, built for the millworks of Penylan Mill, the property was seamlessly converted many years ago and offers an exciting opportunity for a new purchaser to live in a property of immense character on the rural outskirts of Oswestry.

Exquisite original architectural features are present throughout Penylan Mill Farm House. Internally these period details include tall sash windows, ornate fireplaces, decorative cornicing, carved skirting boards, and architraves, hand turned staircase, and panelled doors. Externally pale decorative bricks, a Welsh slate roof and castellated entrance porch create an impressive and charming exterior.

The wonderfully spacious and well-appointed internal accommodation offers a careful and considerate balance between formal entertaining and day to day family living. There are far reaching views from many rooms. The glazed period front door opens to the welcoming hallway from charming porch where the stairs rise above. The study and sitting room are superb sizes and could be used for a variety of uses with views across the lawned parkland style gardens. The heart of this home is the magnificent dining kitchen which creates a hub of easy day to day living. Cleverly divided into two areas with a step up to the large kitchen area from the dining room there are French doors opening to the side terrace which is perfect for alfresco living.

The useful store, large utility room/gym and cloakroom with WC completes the ground floor.

To the first floor are four double bedrooms offering flexibility, family bathroom and en suite shower room. The principal bedroom suite has superb rural views to two aspects and includes a dressing room and en suite shower room.
