Description
Located in a most sought-after position within Mere village, occupying a row of similar properties forming the boundary of the Fairmont golf course (set to be reopened in June 2026) with views over the 10th hole to the rear and open countryside to the front whilst being ideally positioned for all major network links to the Northwest and beyond.
The property is approached through aluminium electric gates over a block paved, sweeping driveway, providing more than ample parking, leading to the front entrance and detached double garage. The gardens are lovely feature of the property, being generous in proportions with a private, open aspect over the Fairmont golf course to the rear. Laid to lawn in the main and beautifully appointed with a plethora of different plants and foliage set within deep borders giving a high degree of privacy, augmented by mature hedging with courtesy gate to the golf course. Flagged patio areas linked by pathways around the garden provide ideal opportunity for alfresco dining and enjoying the lovely views whilst elevated views can be enjoyed via the balcony to the second bedroom.
