The Property - Introducing Ladycroft, which is a beautifully presented, detached bungalow found in the semi-rural Shropshire village of Llanfairwaterdine within the picturesque Teme Valley, just 4 miles from the popular market town of Knighton (Tref-Y-Clawdd). Llanfairwaterdine is a small, but close knit and very friendly community, which embraces the 'laid back' lifestyle and is situated marginally on the English side of the Welsh/English border.

Vastly improved and lovingly cared for by the present owner over recent years, Ladycroft was originally built in the 1960's and sits in the middle of a large plot stretching to approximately just under 1 acre of beautifully nurtured gardens. The bungalow itself is located in the middle of the village, opposite the village hall, in a slightly elevated position, which allows the property to be private and enjoy stunning views across the surrounding countryside and River Teme. In addition, the dwelling has a superb, south facing balcony area, which is accessed straight off the lounge diner and ideal for entertaining/relaxing on, while at the top of the garden there is a delightful detached studio/summerhouse, which is a perfect getaway for anyone wanting peace and quiet while they work, read or relax. From the roadside, there is a gated drive which provides off road parking for a number of vehicles.

Recent refurbishments to the property include a new kitchen, bathroom and en-suite, new radiators and an electric fired 'Fischer' central heating system, an electrical re-wire, re-decoration throughout, a new wood-burning stove, new UPVC double glazed windows to the majority of the property (excluding wooden windows to front), a new flat roof to rear and improvements to the existing main roof, as well as additional insulation in the loft, to mention a select few.

Inside, an entrance lobby leads into the recently installed L-shaped kitchen, which has separate doors leading off to a storage cupboard, bedroom's one and three, the spacious lounge diner and an inner hall which leads to the luxurious bathroom. Bedroom one also boasts having a refitted private en-suite shower room. Flooded with natural light owing to large windows spanning the entire width of the room and framing the beautiful countryside views, the lounge diner has ample space for a three-piece-suite, a set of table and chairs and has a focal point by way of a wood-burning stove. From the lounge diner a door opens into bedroom two, while French doors open out to the fantastic balcony area! It is also worth mentioning that under the lounge diner is an incredibly useful storage area.

Perfect for any horticultural enthusiast to get their green fingers stuck into, the gardens are worthy of particular note with vast sections of lawn interspersed with mature specimen trees and complemented by extensive, well stocked floral, herbaceous borders and flowered beds. From the driveway, a gravelled path leads up through the garden to the entrance door and paved seating area. In addition, there are 2 useful garden sheds, a log store, raised beds and a greenhouse, while found at the top of the garden is the detached studio/summerhouse complete with its own decked balcony area.

Whether you are looking for a quiet residence to retire to, miles from the hustle and bustle of city life, or even a larger property surrounded by glorious countryside for your family to grow up in, you can be sure that by purchasing Ladycroft you would have acquired a truly wonderful bungalow, which any new owner would be proud to call "home"!

The Location - If you are looking for a rural retreat without the headache of being too far from town facilities, then Ladycroft offers the best of both worlds with the beautiful Shropshire/Mid-Wales countryside surrounding the village of Llanfairwaterdine, while conveniently being less than 4 miles away from the border town of Knighton (Tref-Y-Clawdd) with its vibrant main street hosting a variety of local groceries, retail shops and family run businesses.

Overall, Knighton offers a good amount of facilities and services including a supermarket, a nursery/primary school, a railway station, a post office, a variety of sports clubs which includes a golf course, a builders merchants, regular bus routes, a selection of public houses, cafés and restaurants, a leisure centre/swimming pool, a livestock market, a butchers and a bakery, plus much more.

The town features a large community centre which has a strong volunteer network attached to it. The centre holds a monthly community market and in addition a number of charities, organisations and clubs use the centre for their activities. Still a thriving market town spearheaded by local organisations, Knighton is a peaceful town offering breath taking, picturesque scenery and fully accommodates the laid back, relaxed lifestyle that many potential purchasers will be looking for. Described as the ‘The Gateway to Wales’ this market town is situated on the English/Welsh border. Mostly in Powys, partly in Shropshire it lies on the River Teme and is surrounded by hills giving the traveller a glimpse of the more remote areas accessible nearby.

The town's Welsh name is Tref-Y-Clawdd meaning “Town on the Dyke”. This is a reference to Offa’s Dyke, which runs through the town, built by the Saxon King of Mercia to define his border with Wales. Every year hundreds of tourists and walkers visit the Dyke (which in its entirety runs from Prestatyn to Chepstow) and the Offa’s Dyke Centre adding a real vibe to the town during the Spring, Summer and Autumn months. While here, other attractions that visitors to the town often call upon is the famous Space Guard Centre, which offers people the chance to view the wonders of the universe in a fun and understandable way while also raising public awareness of the threat of asteroid and comet impacts and the ways in which they can predict and prevent them. Larger towns near to Knighton are the medieval market town of Ludlow, 18 miles East, and the Victorian Spa town Llandrindod Wells, 19 Miles South West. Both are easily accessible via road or rail links and offer further recreational, educational and leisure facilities.

Places of interest

    When you combine solicitor’s fees, survey costs, stamp duty and then throw in a hefty estate agent’s bill, moving home can become a very costly business. Holters use effective modern marketing tools but cast aside the unnecessary and expensive practices, meaning our clients never have to break the bank to get the highest quality marketing. Having worked for traditional estate agents, founders William and Karl had long thought a number of the methods currently in practice are both outdated and extremely expensive. Their vision was to create a modern agency that offers excellent value for money, while delivering a first-class marketing package and so Holters was born.
