The kitchen is a beautifully designed and light-filled space, created by Hettich and finished with high gloss units and an Oak worktop. There is a NEFF double slide and glide oven with grill and microwave, an integrated BOSCH dishwasher, integrated fridge freezer, wine cooler, and NEFF induction hob with BOSCH extractor. With ample room for a dining table, it is a bright and sociable space at the heart of the home.
A door from the kitchen leads into the snug/office, a charming room with views over the front garden, wooden flooring, and a wood burning stove with a back boiler that can heat the hot water and radiators as an additional heating source. A connecting door returns to the inner hallway and main front entrance, from which two separate doors open into the living room. This is a warm, inviting space with wooden flooring, rural views, and a further wood burning stove, providing a cosy focal point.
Upstairs, the main landing serves five double bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys outstanding views up the valley towards Middletown Hill and includes an ensuite shower room with underfloor heating and a heated towel rail. The second bedroom, positioned at the front of the property, also has its own ensuite shower room with heated towel rail. Bedroom three is currently arranged as a dressing room with fitted wardrobes, while bedroom four, also at the front, includes built in wardrobes. Bedroom five is dual aspect, with double wardrobes available by separate negotiation. Completing the first floor is a well appointed family bathroom with a separate bath, vanity sink and heated towel rail.
The Shed
A significant feature of The Fron is the large agricultural shed, offering exceptional versatility and potential. It includes two roller shutter doors with sufficient height for a tractor or 3.5 tonne lorry, a workshop area, a gym space with sink and WC, and a separate office that is networked directly to the main house. The shed currently accommodates four four post, two car lifts allowing storage for up to sixteen cars, with space for an additional five cars at ground level, as well as a two post lift for maintenance work.
A mezzanine floor above provides extensive further storage. The building is equipped with full CCTV, an alarm system, a roof replaced in October 2025, and sixteen solar panels that remain on a FIT until 2028. Combined with the adjacent paddock, it is an outstanding asset for hobbyists, collectors, car enthusiasts, or those seeking income generating opportunities.
The Fron is a superb family home, immaculately finished and offering the next owners a rare opportunity to enjoy modern comfort, rural seclusion, and outstanding ancillary facilities—all with little or no updating required.
Location
The Fron enjoys a wonderfully well placed location between Welshpool and Shrewsbury, offering the calm of countryside living while keeping day to day amenities close by. Set directly on the A458, Middletown makes travelling in either direction straightforward. Welshpool is just 5 miles away, providing supermarkets, cafés, local shops, leisure facilities and a train station for regional connections.
Shrewsbury, one of Shropshire’s most characterful historic towns, sits around 19–20 miles from Welshpool and remains comfortably accessible for commuting, shopping or leisure. Here you can enjoy independent boutiques, popular restaurants, riverside walks, museums, theatres and excellent transport links via its mainline station.
Middletown is also served by regular bus routes running between Shrewsbury and Welshpool, giving residents convenient public transport options.
The area is well supported by a range of schooling choices. Welshpool High School offers secondary and sixth form education within close reach. In Oswestry, the long established Oswestry School provides independent day and boarding education for ages 4–18. In Shrewsbury, two respected independents are within reach: Shrewsbury School, a co educational senior day and boarding school, and Shrewsbury High School GDST, an all girls day school located near the town centre.
Closer to home, the surrounding area provides everything needed for day to day living. Welshpool offers a broad selection of shops, sports facilities and dining options, while the landscape around The Fron opens into beautiful walking routes, cycling trails and the dramatic Breidden Hills. It’s a location that combines peaceful rural surroundings with well connected access to nearby towns, all within a short distance
