GENERAL REMARKS
The short journey along Drum’s scenic private driveway is part of the charm of this naturally sheltered rural haven and is often interrupted by a pheasant wandering aimlessly or a squirrel skipping across the track. 

Overhead, kites or buzzards may be circling lazily, enhancing the sense that the property is its own little world - a naturally sheltered haven, brimming with wildlife and rural character. Tucked away from sight, the cottage only reveals itself at the very end of the drive, enhancing its sense of seclusion.  However, although it gives the feeling of living off grid, the property has all the services and comforts of modern living, complete with broadband.

The cottage was extensively and sympathetically refurbished over a period of two years when last purchased and boasts many original features including an inglenook fireplace in the breakfast room with I9th century style cast iron stove and a sturdy oak lintel.

PROPERTY
A traditional stable door opens into the cottage’s character-filled breakfast room and adjacent kitchen, both set within the old stone structure. The sympathetically original designed two-storey brick wing blends seamlessly with the original building, creating the extra space a family needs while preserving the property’s rural charm.

The family room/lounge features a large wood burner, making it a cosy retreat on chilly winter nights.
The useful utility room houses a Worcester boiler and a shower room for everyday practicality.
On the first floor, there are five bedrooms along with a family bathroom featuring a jacuzzi bath that looks out over the rear country garden, together with a separate shower for convenience. The principal bedroom is particularly spacious and filled with natural light, enhanced by additional roof lights. 

Beyond the principal bedroom lies a fifth bedroom, versatile games room or study, with doors opening onto an outside decking area.  With a little upgrading, it could offer a lovely vantage point to relax and observe the comings and goings to the bird boxes on a nearby tree and the gentle stream that meanders through the garden below. The main loftspace is fully boarded and accessible via a retractable aluminium ladder and a second loftspace has more restricted headroom.

SCHOOLING
Llanfair Caereinion, Llanerfyl and Llangadfan are served by a cluster of well regarded village schools, including Ysgol Bro Caereinion in Llanfair Caereinion, which offers both primary and secondary education with a strong bilingual ethos.

EXTERNALLY
Outdoor living truly shines here, thanks to a covered rear patio that can be enjoyed in any season. There are plenty of little nooks and resting places to discover and even a working outdoor WC in its own small, brick built hut.  Thoughtfully placed benches are to be found around the grounds and wider acreage where you can pause, breathe in the tranquillity and take in the views. The lawn behind the house is large enough to have been host to numerous weddings and childrens’ parties over the years
A potting shed with traditional quarry-tile flooring sits snugly against the house, accompanied by an integrated workshop and garage.

LAND
The land has previously been used as a smallholding and is a mix of pasture, woodland, vegetable and ornamental gardens. The grounds include three ponds, regularly home to nesting ducks, a resident heron and sometimes even a passing Canadian goose. A large steel portal shed provides generous space for storage, machinery, or hobby projects. Tucked away on the grounds sits an old stone pigsty, long disused but full of rustic charm and ripe for sympathetic restoration.  A static caravan has been in situ for many years, offering potential for overflow accommodation or studio space. There is a second track access to the property at the lower end of the land that is not currently in use and the land registry shows that a footpath exists across the property, albeit that walkers have rarely been seen.

SERVICES
Mains electricity, private water, drainage and LPG central heating are connected at the property.

None of these services have been tested by Halls.

Heading out of Welshpool towards Llanerfyl, turn left off the A458, shortly after Bluebell Park.  Go up the hill, past a couple of static caravans and through the farm road (leaving the gate as found). Continue for a further 150 metres up the single track road, where you will find a gate to the right hand side with the welcoming sign, “Drum.”
