A good life is a collection of happy moments, completing a challenge, designing a new space, spending precious moments with family or friends, maybe finding your dream home, moreover, your dream garden! And oh boy, what a spectacular garden this lovely home has to offer! But before we tell you all about that, we also must mention that this lovely rural property is just a short 20 minute journey to Wellington town where you have the Princess Royal Hospital and the trainline which takes you East into Birmingham and west to Shrewsbury, so perfect for commuters. We’ll take you through the front entrance porch which offers the perfect place to remove coats and shoes with a handy storage cupboard, then you are into the entrance hallway where doors lead to all principle ground floor rooms. First on the right is a generous reception room which could be whatever you want it to be, a very large study, a sitting room, cinema/games/play room, or maybe a hobbies room, the list is endless! Next up is the kitchen breakfast room which has a real country cottage feel about it with a the aga as a central focal point, the warming heart of the house. There are plenty of storage cupboards in a cream shaker style, Belfast sink, integrated dishwasher, and patio sliding doors leading to the real hidden gem of a garden, but before you’re tempted out there, let’s complete the house tour. Back through the kitchen then in your right is the utility room which has some cupboards, a sink and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. Heading to the lounge next you’ll pass the cloakroom which comprises W.C and sink, then arrive at this incredible room. Ceilings with thick characterful beams, a fireplace surrounded by dark wooden panels and a log burning stove inset. Two windows allow this room to be split in to dining and sitting after dinner if you so chose or could simply be a very nice sized lounge. Heading upstairs you’ll walk along the galleried landing and be greeted with a bench seat tucked under the Velux style window if you choose to take a moment, read a book maybe. Then on the right you have a large airing cupboard then a modern bathroom which is of a good size and offering a bath, W.C, sink and separate shower enclosure with an electric shower over. Next door is the second bedroom, a good sized double room with a dormer window looking over the front aspect, then we’ll head across the landing to other side! Here you’ll find a huge wardrobe and storage space under the eaves and opposite another double bedroom. The final space is the main bedroom which has dual aspect windows and a lovely view across the countryside surrounding. Now we’ll head outside which for anyone who loves gardening, is going to be the most important part and what an exciting space this is to explore. You can reach it two ways, there is a driveway that takes you past the neighbours house on the left from the front driveway down to the garage which belongs to The Gables and a gate to the right of this takes you into the back part of the garden. But in order to see it all and have the build up of excitement, exit the kitchen via the sliding door and walk you way slowly along the path like the yellow brick road leading to an emerald city that is the garden. Filled with an exquisite collection of trees, shrubs, flowers, grasses, herbs, are there any more words I can use to explain the beauty of the flora and fauna that lies within this secret escape? There is a patio area to the rear with a view over the rolling countryside beyond, raised beds for growing veg, then a wrought iron gate temps you through the next hidden treat. A pergola offers the glimpse of this extra surprise, another garden area that has been lovingly thought out and landscaped to make for a very interesting, fun garden with nooks to explore and guarantee to brings smiles to your faces. There’s just too much to explain, but be prepared, if gardens and gardening isn’t your thing, this might not be the house for you, but if it is, my goodness the horticultural child in your is definitely going to be jumping with joy! It really is an unexpected oasis that you have to see to fully appreciate, so call the Eccleshall office to book your viewing today.
