The Property
Introducing Shangrila, which is a well maintained, detached bungalow situated on the very edge of the popular market town of Presteigne (Llanandras) close to the Welsh/English border, which in 2024 was once again named as one of the best small towns to live in by the Sunday Times.
Originally built in the early 1980's, Shangrila has been lovingly maintained throughout and offers spacious single storey accommodation including 3 double bedrooms, 4 reception rooms, a kitchen diner, bathroom and a useful utility and office. The property is centrally positioned within a sizeable, level plot providing landscaped gardens and ample off road parking, as well as views over the neighbouring fields and woodland. There is an attached garage/store, as well as a sizeable timber garage/workshop. For efficiency and ease of maintenance the bungalow also benefits UPVC double glazed windows, external doors, fascias and soffits and in addition has roof solar panels. The property is also offered for sale with no upward chain.
Inside, the accommodation is made up of a light and airy conservatory with a door leading into the useful utility and separate doors opening into the office and L-shaped kitchen diner complete with integrated appliances. Doors from the office open into a W.C and the back of the garage/store. From the kitchen diner, doors lead into the formal dining room and the hallway where separate doors open into the bathroom, a useful airing cupboard, the spacious living room, a further conservatory/reception room and all 3 double bedrooms. The bedrooms all have built-in wardrobes, while the living room has a feature fireplace and sliding doors leading out to the garden. Similarly the conservatory has sliding doors leading out to the opposite side garden.
Outside, a gated tarmacadam driveway leads to the attached garage/store and a parking area where there is space for a number of vehicles. The good-sized level gardens allow you to follow the sun throughout the day and are largely laid to lawn along with a paved patio seating area, which is perfect for relaxing on within the warmer months. There are well-defined fenced and hedged boundaries providing plenty of privacy, flowered borders and views towards Silia Wood, while to the one side of the bungalow is a sizeable timber garage/workshop, as well as a further timber potting/storage shed.
Location-wise, Shangrila offers the best of both town and country living and is conveniently situated approximately 1/4 of a mile from the vibrant town centre with its many independently owned shops and facilities, while in contrast, simply walk out of the entrance gates and you will find yourself roaming along a winding country lane surrounded by fields stocked with sheep and cows and views across the rolling hills and woodlands. For those with children, the property is helpfully positioned approximately 200 yards from Presteigne Primary School, while for dog and walking lovers, the entrance to Silia Wood, part of a woodland trust with its many trails, is found approximately 250 yards away.
The Town
Presteigne sits alongside the River Lugg, at the corner of the three counties of Shropshire, Herefordshire and Powys, within a short drive to Hay-On-Wye, Hereford, Ludlow and Shrewsbury, surrounded by beautiful, unspoilt countryside, perfect for walking and cycle rides. Just to the west are Radnor Forest and Offa's Dyke. Go slightly south west and you can browse the book shops of Hay-On-Wye, and to the east you can sample the renowned culinary delights of Ludlow. Hereford, with its Cathedral, is 26 miles away and in between there are activities and places to visit to satisfy a whole variety of tastes. The High Street, most unusually these days, has a good range of individual shops, restaurants, pubs, hotel and services. There’s even a Michelin starred restaurant five miles outside Presteigne. Throughout the year the senses are served with a range of musical and arts based events. The Presteigne Music Festival is a prestigious and internationally renowned regular event and throughout the year other musical events provide a rich and eclectic menu. There is a calendar of high quality art exhibitions throughout the year, whilst the Church of St Andrew's permanently houses its own treasure, a 16th century Flemish Tapestry.
The Judge's Lodging museum, a Georgian Court House complete with cells, courtroom and living quarters, has been classed as Britain’s Best Hidden Gem. The town is home to educational facilities to suit all ages, Presteigne Primary School is under a mile away and the newly reformed John Beddoes Campus provides secondary education up to GCSE level, acting as a campus of Newtown High School. Sports clubs in the area are renowned after various successes across Wales, including Presteigne Saint Andrew's Football Club, Presteigne Bowling Club, Cricket Club and a ladies Hockey Team.
Further educational facilities are available within the area, which include many highly regarded private primary and secondary schools including Hereford Cathedral School, Lucton School just outside Leominster, Moor Park just outside Ludlow and Christ College in Brecon. There are 6 separate colleges including Newtown College, Hereford College of Arts, Herefordshire & Ludlow College, The National School of Blacksmithing (the oldest established Blacksmithing college in the UK), Hereford Sixth Form College and The Royal National College for the Blind, which is one of the top colleges in Europe for blind and visually impaired students. Additionally, plans are now in progress to create, from scratch, a new University in Hereford.
