A unique opportunity to live in a historic gatehouse to what was once Montgomery’s County Gaol is being offered by agents Morris, Marshall and Poole.

Gaol House is one half of a large decorative archway built in 1866 leading from Old Gaol Road to the Gaol itself.

Now Grade II Listed and standing in the town’s pretty conservation area it offers family-sized accommodation with plenty of character and views over the historic town to Montgomery Castle.

On the ground floor there is a kitchen/dining room with an oil fired Stanley range and fitted base and wall cupboards with tiled surrounds. A separate utility room has a sink and cupboards and plumbing for a washing machine.

The large living room has a multi- fuel stove set into an inglenook, while there is a separate family room and a bathroom.

Stairs lead from the living room to a first floor landing with a bedroom and a shower room with wc. Further stairs lead to the second floor where there are three further bedrooms and a walk-in store.

Outside there is a paved garden area to the front, and a shared entrance drive through the arch which leads to a parking space behind the property. There are also three store sheds and a covered store.

Gaol House has an asking price of £175,000. Details are available from the Newtown office of Morris, Marshall & Poole on 01686 626160 or online at www.morrismarshall.co.uk
