Description
The property offers a wonderful blend of comfort, character, and modern living. The welcoming Hall sets the tone, with a turning staircase rising to a galleried Landing and underfloor heating running throughout the property means you'll always have a warm welcome.
To the left, the light and spacious Lounge with a log burner set within an inglenook fireplace and French doors that open to the Garden - and the Lounge flows through to the Dining Room, where a second set of French doors also lead directly out to the Garden.
The smart, contemporary Breakfast Kitchen includes a breakfast bar with storage beneath and an integrated dishwasher, microwave, oven and gas hob with extractor fan over, complemented by a generous Utility Room and a Guest WC.
Upstairs, the Principal Bedroom benefits from its own En Suite Shower Room, and there are two further Double Bedrooms and a well-appointed Family Bathroom with a shower over the bath.
Externally, the property sits within a generous 0.21-acre plot. A wide gravelled Driveway provides ample Parking and leads to a Detached Garage and double Carport. The rear Garden is very special place with a large patio terrace overlooking the lawn and mature landscaped borders, and a winding path guides you through a charming woodland garden to a timber deck that enjoys serene views over the village pond.
This exceptional home offers a rare combination of privacy, space, and picturesque surroundings. To fully appreciate everything it has to offer, please contact the team in our Market Drayton office to arrange your viewing.
