The Chestnuts, Station Road, Knighton, LD7 1DT

Introducing The Chestnuts, an imposing and beautifully proportioned, detached, period residence set within an exceptionally generous plot of approximately 1 acre, right in the heart of the popular market town of Knighton (Tref-Y-Clawdd), positioned directly on the Welsh/English border within the picturesque Teme Valley.

Believed to date back to 1877, this remarkable home has been owned by the same family since its original construction and has never before been offered for sale, making this a genuinely rare opportunity.

Offering extensive accommodation across four floors, The Chestnuts is a substantial and highly versatile home retaining a wealth of original period features, including sash windows, fireplaces, high ceilings and generous room proportions.

The property is available with no upward chain and is complemented by a range of significant outbuildings, providing exciting future potential.

The main house provides 8 bedrooms and 4 reception rooms, with flexible accommodation ideal for larger families or multi-generational living.

The ground floor is centred around a welcoming entrance hall with a striking staircase rising to the upper floors and descending to the cellar, which comprises 4 substantial cellar rooms.

The first floor offers 4 bedrooms, a bathroom and separate W.C, while the second floor provides a further 4 bedrooms, bathroom and a study, all enjoying pleasant outlooks across the gardens and surroundings.

Adjoining the rear of the main residence is a two-storey former office block, believed to date from the early 20th century.

Currently arranged as office and store rooms across both floors, this building presents an exciting opportunity for conversion and, subject to all necessary permissions, could be transformed into a self-contained annexe, holiday let, home business premises or potentially separated and utilised independently.

Further complimenting the property is a detached, two-storey coach house, again offering further scope for conversion, subject to permissions, whether for ancillary accommodation, leisure use or additional storage.

A detached garage is also included. Outside, The Chestnuts truly comes into its own. Accessed via a gated driveway, the property enjoys ample off-road parking for numerous vehicles.

The walled gardens are large, mature and well established, wrapping around the house and providing a sense of privacy rarely associated with such a central location.

Within the grounds are a summerhouse, tennis court, swimming pool, expansive lawned areas, vegetable plot, greenhouse, storage sheds, mature trees, shrubs and planted borders, offering plenty of space for recreation, entertaining and relaxation.

Despite the size of the plot, the layout remains practical and usable, with clear separation between formal gardens and leisure areas by a brook and access bridge.

An additional gated entrance is located to the rear of the garden leading out onto Bowling Green Lane.

Remarkably, all of this is found just approximately 250 yards from Knighton’s town centre, with its shops and facilities, as well as the railway station and the nearby Offa’s Dyke Centre and footpath, offering immediate access to beautiful countryside walks.

Rarely does a property of this scale, provenance and flexibility come to market, particularly one that has remained within the same family for its entire history.

Offering period elegance, extensive accommodation, multiple outbuildings and genuine development potential, all within a prime town-centre position, The Chestnuts represents a truly exceptional opportunity.
