Audlem Road, Woore

PROPERTY OVERVIEW Villa Farm is a truly unique property. It offers you a Three Bedroom Detached Farmhouse overlooking the ornamental Lake, with a Barn, Paddocks, Gardens and a successful Cattery business set on a glorious 8.22 acre plot.

As you swing into the property, electric gates open to a long driveway with a post and rail fence running along the side of the Paddock. The drive leads to the large Parking area with the detached Garage/Office building, large brick Barn and the cattery Reception.

The double-fronted Farmhouse has a Lounge and separate Dining Room - both with multi-fuel stoves - a Kitchen, Utility, ground floor Shower Room, and Conservatory. To the first floor are three Double Bedrooms, with the Principal Bedroom having a modern, stylish En Suite.

To the side of the house is a large patio with a covered timber seating area, and the lawn runs down to the lake which was created by the current owners and is beautifully landscaped with a central island which is home to the resident geese.

Part of the large Barn has been converted into a Pilates/Tai Chi Studio with a Games Area, with a door through to a workshop. In the middle section is a very large workshop with triple doors, and the third section of the barn has been developed as a self-contained office space with Kitchen and WC that's currently used as the food preparation area for the Cattery.

In the grounds is the fully stocked Fishing Lake, a brick building that was once used as a Donkey Stable, a chicken run, a large Paddock that's big enough for a couple of horses or small holding livestock - and plenty of parking for the house and the onsite Cattery business.

The successful Cattery has four main runs with 62 cat suites of various sizes (ideal for cats who like to share!) plus two isolation units, and some of the units overlook the lake, making this a rather lovely place for your cats to spend their holidays!. There's a timber chalet cattery Reception area, and further details of the business can be requested from our team.

This really is a unique property that really does need to be viewed to appreciate everything it has to offer - so please call the team at our Market Drayton office to arrange your viewing.
