A most attractive three bedroomed detached country cottage offering potential for modernisation and possible extension, with outbuildings and land extending, in all, to around 2 acres, situated in a super rural location.
Description - Halls are delighted with instructions to offer The Laurels at the Ridge, Nr Ellesmere, for sale by private treaty.
The Laurels is a most attractive three bedroomed detached country cottage offering potential for modernisation and possible extension, with outbuildings and land extending, in all, to around 2 acres, situated in a super rural location.
The internal accommodation, which has been well maintained by the current vendors during their 30 years plus occupation of the property, provides, on the ground floor, a Reception Hall, Kitchen Breakfast Room, Utility Room/Rear Entrance Hall, Living Room and downstairs Cloakroom together with three first floor bedrooms and a family Bathroom. The property benefits from partially double glazed windows and an oil fired central heating system (from the Rayburn in the kitchen).
Outside, the property is complimented by a brick paved drive to the rear which leads to a parking and manoeuvring area fronted by a Car Port.
The gardens are an attractive feature of the property and are positioned principally to the front of the house, currently laid to lawn retained by mature hedging with a paved patio area to the front providing an ideal space for outdoor entertaining.
There are a number of most useful outbuildings, including two traditional brick and slate roofed buildings to the rear providing potential for a number of usages or possible conversion into Holiday Lets/Annex etc (subject to LA consent). There is also a 3 bay machinery storage shed (13.5m x 5m).
The land is an unexpected feature of the property and is retained within two principal enclosures of permanent pasture with a separate vehicular access from the adjacent country lane. The land is level and ideal for grazing of a variety of animals.
The property extends, in all, to around 2 acres, or thereabouts.
The sale of The Laurels, does, therefore, provide a very rare opportunity indeed for purchasers to acquire a most attractive detached country cottage with useful outbuildings and land situated in this particularly popular rural location.
Situation - The Laurels is situated in an attractive rural setting amidst unspoilt countryside. Whilst enjoying its peaceful rural location the property is within easy motoring distance of the well known towns of Ellesmere (3 miles) and Oswestry (5.5) both of which have an excellent range of local facilities. The county towns of Shrewsbury (18 miles) and Chester (25 miles) are both within an easy drive and both have a more comprehensive range of amenities of all kinds. Local train services can be found at Gobowen where direct services to Chester and Shrewsbury and linked services to Birmingham and London are available.
Directions - From Ellesmere take the A495, in the direction of Oswestry and continue for approximately 1 mile. Turn right, signposted 'Perthy', just before the Brow Golf Club. Continue on this quiet country lane for approximately 0.5 of a mile and bear left on a right hand bend, signposted 'Ridge and Oswestry'.
