The farmbuildings have full planning permission for conversion into five high quality units, which will comprise three 2 storey and two single storey dwellings, which will certainly provide a popular development for prospective purchasers, enjoying views over the super surrounding countryside.
The proposed accommodation for each unit has been Architect designed with great flair and imagination and offers a combination of modern influence mixed with a number of original features ensuring the original atmosphere of the buildings are retained.
The units will all benefit from good sized gardens which will all enjoy lovely views over surrounding countryside. To the front of the properties will be a cobbled courtyard together with two separate accesses from the adjacent country lane to garaging for the properties.

Situation


The farmbuildings are situated a short distance from the most popular village of Prees. Prees has excellent local amenities for a village of this size to include a number of shops, primary school, thriving sports club and parish church. Prees is also extremely convenient to the nearby North Shropshire towns of Whitchurch (5 miles) and Wem (4.5 miles) both of which have an excellent range of local shopping, recreational and educational facilities. The county town of Shrewsbury is approximately 16 miles away which has a more comprehensive range of amenities of all kinds. The well known Hawkstone Park Hotel & Golf Complex is also only approximately 3 miles away.

The directions


From Shrewsbury take the A49 trunk road to Prees. Proceed down the main street in Prees, turn left and continue for a short distance.
