There is a wonderful sense of individuality to this home. Its history gives it a character that is difficult to replicate, while the updates made by the current owners mean it remains well suited to contemporary family life.
The two reception rooms offer flexibility, with the current dining room providing a dedicated space for family meals and entertaining. In the lounge, a Clearview log burner creates a cosy focal point, while a second log burner in the kitchen adds warmth and atmosphere to one of the home's most sociable spaces.
The kitchen was updated in 2021 and strikes a balance between the character expected of a home of this age and the convenience of modern living. The Quooker 5-in-1 tap provides hot, cold, boiling, chilled filtered and sparkling water, making it a particularly useful addition to the everyday kitchen.
Outside, the L-shaped garden is a real asset. Two patio areas provide options for outdoor dining and entertaining, while the wider garden offers space for children, pets, gardening or simply enjoying the outlook towards Brogyntyn Park.
The basement adds another layer of flexibility, currently serving as valuable storage but offering the potential to become something more in the future, subject to the relevant permissions and consents. Sharps fitted furniture across three bedrooms and the dining room also provides excellent built-in storage throughout the home.
Location
The property enjoys an enviable position on Oakhurst Road, set back from the road and overlooking Brogyntyn Park. Despite its peaceful setting, Oswestry town centre is just a stone’s throw away, placing shops, cafés, restaurants, supermarkets and everyday amenities within easy reach.
The surrounding area offers a blend of town convenience and access to the Shropshire countryside, while Oswestry’s position provides good road connections via the A5 towards Shrewsbury, Wrexham and beyond.
For buyers looking for a period home with genuine history, generous outside space and the convenience of being close to town, 81 Oakhurst Road offers a particularly appealing combination.
