The property Highfields is an attractive double-fronted property offering more than 2,700 sq ft of light-filled, flexible accommodation, arranged in an L-shape over a single floor. Designed to provide an ideal space for family living and entertaining, the home features extensive picture glazing that maximises the stunning, farreaching views over the garden and neighbouring countryside. The accommodation flows from a welcoming reception hall and includes a large, L-shaped, rear-aspect drawing room with a feature fireplace and patio doors leading to the rear terrace. There's also a dining room with a glazed door to the terrace, and a front-aspect living room that connects to a spacious L-shaped kitchen and breakfast room.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, while the dual-aspect breakfast room offers space for a sizeable table and access to a pergola covered section of the terrace via a glazed door. A door from the kitchen opens into a side entrance hall, which includes two doors to a covered, front-aspect verandah, a useful cloakroom, and a spacious, well-equipped utility room with generous storage. The accommodation is completed by a bedroom wing, which includes an additional reception with a large bay window overlooking the front aspect, currently configured as a study. There is a principal bedroom with fitted storage, a dual-aspect bedroom with patio doors opening to the garden, and three further bedrooms—one with a useful sink and two with fitted storage. This wing also features a family bathroom with a bath and separate shower, as well as a separate family shower room.
Outside The property is approached over a tarmac driveway providing private parking and giving access to two attached garages, one benefitting from an internal door to a useful store with a door to the rear terrace. The generous well-maintained garden to front and rear, a particular feature of this property, is laid mainly to lawn bordered by well-stocked flower and shrub beds and features numerous seating areas and, to the rear, a spacious wraparound paved terrace partcovered by a pergola ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining. The whole, screened by mature hedging, enjoys far-reaching views over neighbouring rolling Shropshire countryside.
