Grove House
Haimwood, Llandrinio, Powys SY22 6SQ
A substantial detached house in a rural location, standing in approximately 3.5 acres.
The property also currently used as a small rare plants nursery,
which represents a potentially lucrative business opportunity to any prospective purchaser who wished to develop it further.
Grove House is a detached property of brick under slate construction, believed to date from approximately 1800. Haimwood is situated on a single track no-through road, maintained by the council. The location is rural, quiet and tranquil, with very little local traffic yet is less than 20 minutes from Shrewsbury, Welshpool or Oswestry and less than 1½ hours from Liverpool.
The no-through road is a very effective crime deterrent; in the entire history of Haimwood, there has never been a burglary or car theft.
The house stands in its own grounds of approximately 3.5 acres and is not overlooked, being separated from each of its nearest neighbours by at least one field. The property is bordered by the River Severn to the rear and has the benefit of fishing rights on over 100 yds of river bank.
Otters have been observed playing on the river banks and the Kingfishers visit the pond on a daily basis.
