Directions - What3Words - ///starring.snowmen.intricate

Situation - Lockley Wood is an attractive and peaceful rural hamlet, surrounded by beautiful open countryside and enjoying a lovely semi-rural setting, whilst remaining conveniently positioned for the nearby market town of Market Drayton.

Market Drayton offers an excellent range of everyday amenities, including independent shops, supermarkets, cafés, public houses, restaurants and other essential services. The town also provides a range of schooling and recreational facilities.

The surrounding countryside offers wonderful opportunities for outdoor pursuits, with an extensive network of country lanes and walks to explore. Despite its rural setting, the property is also well placed for road connections towards Shrewsbury, Telford and the wider North Shropshire and Staffordshire areas.

Description - The Sycamores is an impressive and beautifully presented three-bedroom bungalow which has been thoughtfully renovated and finished to an exceptionally high standard throughout. The property offers spacious, light and bright, flexible and well-proportioned accommodation, complemented by an outstanding range of outbuildings and equestrian facilities.

Occupying an enviable position in a popular rural location, The Sycamores would make a superb family home or an equally appealing proposition for those looking to downsize without compromising on outside space, privacy or the opportunity to enjoy an equestrian lifestyle.

The property is beautifully presented and the accommodation includes a superb kitchen/dining room forming the hub of the home, with a wonderful picture window overlooking the paddocks and also enjoying a direct outlook towards the stable block. There are two well portioned reception rooms that include a large and welcoming sitting room with feature fireplace, together with a centrally positioned dining hall that could quite easily be a wonderful family room.

There are three double bedrooms, including an impressive principal bedroom with en-suite facilities, complemented by a family bathroom.

Outside - The external space is a particular feature of The Sycamores, extending to approximately 2.9 acres in total and providing an excellent combination of gardens, equestrian facilities and paddock land. There are two gently sloping paddocks, both enjoying stunning far-reaching countryside views and predominantly enclosed by mature hedging and lap board fencing.

The established gardens are well maintained and feature a variety of mature trees and hedging, creating an attractive setting around the property.

The range of outbuildings is particularly impressive and includes a triple stable block, open-fronted double-bay barn, triple garage incorporating an inspection pit and a substantial garage with additional loft space. There is also excellent road access, with extensive hardstanding providing parking for several vehicles, generous turning space and provision for a horsebox or other larger vehicles.

For those with equestrian interests, the property is particularly well suited, with the paddocks and stabling complemented by immediate access to miles of attractive country lanes, ideal for riding, walking and enjoying the surrounding countryside.
