Description

AN ELEGANT DETACHED, GRADE II LISTED, GEORGIAN HOUSE IN A WONDERFUL LANDSCAPED GARDEN SETTING ENJOYING SUPERB VIEWS OVER ROLLING COUNTRYSIDE, 600 YARDS FROM AUDLEM VILLAGE CENTRE.
DESCRIPTION
Beech Tree House is a graceful and distinguished Georgian house with Victorian additions, constructed of brick under a tiled and slate roof. It is approached over a stone set entrance, through electrically operated gates, to a gravel car parking and turning area.
Believed to date back to 1740, Beech Tree House is an exquisite Georgian detached property of outstanding stature, quality, proportion, character and presence in Audlem village. The house has been sympathetically refurbished to an extremely high specification, featuring high ceilings, a fine oak staircase, period fireplaces, refurbished/replaced sash windows, oak floors and a Duncans of Grantown kitchen resulting in a beautifully presented and well lit period house of calibre.
The gardens are a spectacular feature to this period residence and have been designed to create colour and interest throughout the seasons. A further external feature to note are the amazing far reaching views and the fact there are super walks on foot without any need to get into the car.
LOCATION AND AMENITIES
Beech Tree House occupies a prominent position 600 yards from Audlem village centre. Audlem was mentioned in the Doomsday book as Aldelime, and Edward 1st granted a market charter in 1295. Audlem is on the Shropshire union canal, which has a run of 15 locks, designed by Thomas Telford to raise the canal 93 feet from the Cheshire plain to the Shropshire plain. The River Weaver passes west of the village.
