Property description
You'd be hard pressed to tell from the front that this good sized family home has been extended, but it has in fact been considerably enlarged and an inspection is recommended. I happen to know of someone who lives in the village and they commented that they have enjoyed many a good party here, especially in the kitchen/diner! Quite frankly, it is not difficult to see why as this room certainly forms the hub of the house as it is particularly spacious and has lots of light coming in from the dining area. Another noteworthy feature is the location - this is not a property that is located on a rambling housing estate; far from it, as it faces the landscaped gardens of an attractive property over the road beyond a low sandstone wall and although there is a house behind, there are views towards open countryside in the distance. Undoubtedly, this is a very desirable attribute. The village of Prees seems to have come into its own over the last few years and it is not difficult to see why. There is a real sense of 'community' here, the village itself having a shop, post office, doctor, hairdresser, village hall, railway station and primary school. There is a club house within the recreational ground, which also incorporates a bowling club, along with cricket and football fields. It is well placed for travel by car into nearby Whitchurch, Wem and Shrewsbury. Then there is the house itself. As previously stated, it has been extended (over the kitchen) and the ground floor living accommodation has been increased further by converting part of the garage into a utility area and Cloakroom/WC. So what we have left is a useful storage area, although it could easily be reverted to its original use as a garage if required. Don't worry about parking though because there's plenty of it - my client reckons there is space for at least 5 cars, if required. To be honest, single garages are rarely used these days in modern properties as cars have got larger, meaning it is very difficult to open the doors and get out, even if you could be bothered to park it there in the first place!! Upstairs, there are now 4 bedrooms, along with the original family bathroom and the recently created separate shower room, just off the main bedroom. Outside, there are easily managed lawned gardens. In summary, our clients have thoroughly enjoyed living in this thriving Shropshire village and have without doubt, improved their home into what we see today. They are only selling it due to downsizing and this is therefore your chance to pick up where they are leaving off. Call us on 01948 665566 to secure your viewing before someone else beats you to it!
