Description - The Granary is an attractive and beautifully presented barn conversion forming part of a small rural setting in Maesbrook, a well-regarded village positioned between Oswestry and Shrewsbury.

The property offers an appealing balance of character and comfort, with vaulted ceilings, exposed structural timbers, oak internal joinery, generous glazing and well-planned accommodation arranged over two floors. The current owners have clearly maintained and improved the home with care, creating a warm, highly liveable property that works particularly well for those seeking manageable country living without compromising on space.

Accomodation -

Entrance Hall - The property is entered into a welcoming hall, setting the tone for the rest of the house with oak internal joinery, exposed features and access to the principal ground-floor accommodation. The hall provides a natural central point, linking the reception rooms, study, ground-floor bedroom suite and kitchen areas.

Lounge - The lounge is one of the standout rooms within the house. It is a beautifully proportioned reception space with a vaulted ceiling, exposed timber beams, oak flooring and excellent natural light. French doors open directly to the garden, creating a strong connection between the internal living space and the outside seating areas.

A central fireplace provides a focal point, while the scale of the room allows for both relaxed everyday seating and more formal entertaining. The character of the exposed roof structure gives the room real architectural presence without compromising comfort.

Family Dining - Positioned between the lounge and kitchen, the family/dining room provides a further excellent reception space. It works well as an informal sitting room, dining area or entertaining room, with doors opening to the garden and good visual connection through the main living areas.

The proportions make this an adaptable room, equally suited to family life or hosting guests, and its position within the house gives the ground floor a very natural flow.

Kitchen/Breakfast - The kitchen/breakfast room is a bright and characterful space, combining a vaulted ceiling and exposed timbers with a comprehensive range of fitted units. The kitchen includes granite work surfaces, a central breakfast island, AGA range cooker, integrated appliances and generous storage.

The room is large enough for informal dining and works as a genuine everyday hub of the home. The mix of traditional cabinetry, exposed oak detail and modern specification is very much in keeping with the wider character of the barn conversion.

Utility Room - The utility room provides useful additional storage and laundry space, with direct external access. It sits conveniently off the kitchen and also connects to the cloakroom/WC.

Cloakroom W/C - A ground-floor cloakroom is positioned off the utility area, providing practical facilities for guests and everyday use.

Study - The study is a useful dedicated home office, positioned away from the main reception spaces. It would suit buyers working from home, or alternatively could be used as a hobby room, reading room or additional occasional space.

Downstairs Bedroom - The ground-floor bedroom is a major feature of the layout. Generously sized and well placed, it offers excellent flexibility for those seeking single-level living, guest accommodation or multi-generational use.

En Suite Shower Room - The ground-floor bedroom benefits from its own en suite shower room, fitted with shower enclosure, WC and wash hand basin.

First Floor -

Landing - The first-floor landing is bright and characterful, with exposed timber detail and access to the three first-floor bedrooms and bath/shower rooms.

Bedroom Two - A well-proportioned double bedroom with attractive exposed timber detail and fitted storage.

En-Suite Shower Room - Bedroom two is served by an en suite shower room, providing useful privacy for family members or guests.

Bedroom Three - A further double bedroom, again with character features and a pleasant outlook.

Bedroom Four - A fourth bedroom, suitable as a bedroom, dressing room, nursery or additional office, depending on a buyer’s requirements.

Family Bathroom - The family bathroom is fitted with a freestanding slipper-style bath, WC and wash hand basin. The room is well finished and provides an attractive main bathroom for the first floor.

Outside - The approach to The Granary is particularly appealing, with a gravelled drive leading into a generous parking and turning area. The setting has an immediate rural feel, with open aspects, mature boundary planting and attractive converted buildings nearby.

The gardens have been carefully landscaped to create a series of usable outdoor spaces rather than a single formal lawn. There are paved seating terraces, mature planted borders, established shrubs and areas designed for outdoor dining and relaxation. The principal reception rooms open naturally to these spaces, making the garden feel like a genuine extension of the living accommodation.

The garden is a key part of the property’s appeal. It offers colour, privacy and interest, but remains manageable for buyers who want the enjoyment of outside space without the burden of extensive acreage.

Garage & Parking - The detached double garage measures approximately:

It provides two vehicle bays, storage and workshop potential. The floor plan records the garage at approximately 498 sq ft, making it a significant additional asset beyond the main house.

The gravelled driveway provides extensive parking and turning space for several vehicles.

Location - Maesbrook is a small rural village situated south of Oswestry, surrounded by open countryside and within easy reach of the Shropshire/Powys border. The area is well placed for buyers seeking a quieter village setting while remaining connected to nearby towns and road links.

Oswestry provides a wide range of amenities including independent shops, supermarkets, schools, restaurants, cafes and leisure facilities. The surrounding countryside offers excellent walking, cycling and access to scenic rural routes, with the nearby A5 and A483 providing links towards Shrewsbury, Wrexham, Chester and the wider Midlands road network.

The location will suit buyers looking for a character home in a rural setting, but without feeling isolated.
