Video available on request - If you are searching for 'Paradise', we may well have found it!
The current owners bought Moss Villa for its stunning all round scenery, the peace and serenity and above all, knowing that there were no immediate neighbouring properties.
Properties in locations such as this rarely come onto the market and we anticipate high demand. You will therefore need to act quickly…….
It is a detached Grade II listed former estate workers cottage, believed to have been built around 1875. A great deal of time, effort and money has been spent modernising the property, although it still requires some (mainly cosmetic) work to realise its full potential.
It has gardens and adjoining paddock extending, in all, to over 2 acres, in a stunning and private woodland setting. There are a number of useful outbuildings also included in the sale.
The cottage lies close to the English/Welsh border on the edge of the Fenns, Whixall and Bettisfield Moss. The land is designated as a Ramsar site (wetlands that are considered to be of international importance under the Ramsar Convention), Site of Special Scientific Interest (sssi) and a Special Area of Conservation (sac).
A track leading beyond the land gives access to miles of beautiful rolling countryside, providing hours of walks and confirming that this really is Paradise!
It is hard to believe that you are only a few minutes driving distance from Whitchurch with its associated shops, schools and amenities, including a railway station.
The property has underfloor heating downstairs (with radiators upstairs) and is offered with the benefit of having no onward chain.
