A most unusual opportunity to purchase an interesting equestrian 'yard' in a private location which has great potential for improving (subject to planning permission) in to a new set up and currently including approximately 12 acres of predominantly level pastureland together with 9 loose boxes, tack room, sheds, feed room and various dog kennels.

General Remarks - Halls are favoured with instructions to offer Heartlands Farm, near Ellesmere, for sale by Private Treaty.

Heartlands Farm is an interesting and unusual opportunity to purchase an equestrian yard with has great potential for improvement with approximately 12 acres of level pasture, in an attractive and unspoilt rural location, with 9 loose boxes, tack room, storage sheds and feed room, dog kennels and various storage buildings.

Full Planning Permission was granted on 2nd April 2015 for 'construction of stables, manège and temporary mobile home and change of use of land from agricultural to equestrian use', therefore, providing a very unusual opportunity to develop in to a first class and well equipped equestrian yard. Please note - this has now lapsed.

The sale of the Heartlands Farm therefore provides an excellent opportunity to purchase a 'one-off' and conveniently situated equestrian yard with such potential for expansion/development (subject to LA consent) which should be noted by those with equestrian interests.

Halls, the selling agents, strongly recommend an immediate inspection to appreciate the possibilities that Heartlands Farm has to offer.

It is still only 4 miles from the well known north Shropshire Lakeland town of Ellesmere, which has an excellent range of local shopping, recreational and educational facilities. The larger centres, also, of Wrexham (10 miles) and Whitchurch (10 miles) are within easy motoring distance, and both have a more comprehensive range of amenities of all kinds.

Directions - From Ellesmere take the A528 Wrexham to Overton road for approximately 1 mile and turn right signposted 'Penley'. Continue to the outskirts of Penley and turn right down a quiet country lane. (unsigned). The drive in to Heartlands Farm will be found immediately on the right hand side, identified by a Halls for sale board.
