Alkington Road, Whitchurch, SY13

A standout feature of this exceptional property is its unique ability to offer the feel of a rural country residence, complete with superb open views, paddock land and generous grounds of approximately 1.66 acres, while remaining within easy walking distance of Whitchurch town centre. The property enjoys the best of both worlds, combining privacy, space and a semi-rural outlook with convenient access to comprehensive amenities, shops, schools and the mainline railway station, as well as extensive parking.

This substantial double-fronted Victorian detached residence stands proudly within approximately 1.6 acres of private grounds, offering an impressive blend of period elegance, extensive accommodation and a peaceful yet highly accessible setting. Its classic façade and generous proportions immediately convey a sense of character, stature and timeless appeal.

The grounds are a particular highlight, comprising expansive gardens and a large paddock area, ideal for leisure use, animals such as a pony, or a variety of lifestyle opportunities (subject to any necessary consents). From both the house and the grounds, there are stunning, far-reaching rural views, creating a tranquil backdrop rarely found so close to a thriving town centre.

Internally, the accommodation is versatile and generously proportioned throughout. The property offers four substantial reception rooms, providing flexible space well suited to formal entertaining, family living, home working or hobbies. The principal living room is particularly impressive, being exceptionally large and featuring a wood-burning stove, a vaulted ceiling and exposed oak beams, creating a striking yet welcoming space with a strong sense of character. These rooms retain the scale and presence typical of a Victorian home, allowing modern living to sit comfortably alongside period charm.

At the heart of the home is a spacious dining kitchen, perfectly designed for family life and entertaining. With ample space for a large dining table and social gatherings, this room forms a natural hub, connecting seamlessly with the surrounding reception areas.

Externally, the property is approached via secure double gates leading onto a substantial driveway, providing extensive parking for multiple vehicles. The set-back position, combined with the size of the plot, ensures an excellent degree of privacy and security.

Overall, this impressive four-bedroom Victorian residence presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial home with extensive grounds, outstanding views and a truly semi-rural feel, all within walking distance of Whitchurch town centre, its amenities and the railway station.
