Description

BRIEF DESCRIPTION An exceptional detached family home, extensively renovated and thoughtfully extended by the current owners to an outstanding standard, set in a peaceful semi-rural position on the edge of the charming market town of Ellesmere. Enjoying delightful views towards the Mere, this superb property offers approximately 3,400 sq ft of versatile and immaculately presented accommodation.

The ground floor begins with an entrance porch and adjoining cloakroom, leading through to a truly stunning open-plan kitchen/dining/family room - undoubtedly the heart of the home. Flooded with natural light from two large roof lanterns, this impressive space features a contemporary fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, a central island, and a comfortable living area complete with a log burner. Two sets of French doors open seamlessly onto the garden, creating an ideal space for both everyday family life and entertaining.

From the kitchen, a door leads to the original part of the house, where a traditional hallway showcases an original stained glass front door and attractive parquet flooring. The elegant lounge features a multi-fuel stove and a front-facing window framing beautiful views, while the formal dining room offers a charming fireplace with open grate and equally appealing outlooks. A separate office provides flexibility as a potential additional bedroom, complemented by a ground floor shower room and a practical utility room.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom enjoys elevated views towards the Mere, accompanied by two further spacious double bedrooms, each benefiting from walk-in wardrobes - one also offering access to additional attic storage. A stylish family shower room and a separate WC complete the first-floor accommodation.

Externally, the property is approached via timber entrance gates opening onto a substantial driveway, providing ample parking for multiple vehicles and leading to a recently constructed double garage equipped with an EV charger. Behind the garage is a useful storage room, alongside a separate brick-built outbuilding divided into three storage areas.

The beautifully maintained wrap-around gardens are a particular highlight, extending to just under one acre and surrounded by open farmland, offering a wonderful sense of space and privacy. Predominantly laid to lawn, the grounds feature well-stocked borders, a variety of established trees and shrubs - including fruit trees - and multiple seating areas to enjoy the surroundings. A pond provides a haven for wildlife, and a secondary access gate to the side of the property adds further convenience.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly impressive home in an idyllic setting, combining modern living with character features and exceptional outdoor space.

LOCATION Situated in the charming market town of Ellesmere which is famed for its location next to 'The Mere', one of nine glacial meres or shallow lakes in the local area. Ellesmere which has requirements for daily living including a weekly market, it also benefits from having a stretch of the Llangollen Union Canal running through it. Ellesmere also offers primary and secondary schools including the renowned Ellesmere College. The larger Centres of Oswestry, Shrewsbury and Wrexham are between 8 and 16 miles approximately.
