Windle Hill, Church Stretton, Shropshire

The property: Built approximately 20 years ago, Windle Wood is an appealing property which offers light and airy rooms and a relaxed open ambience ideally suited to modern lifestyles.

A vestibule gives access into the impressive hallway which affords glimpses to the galleried landing above and offers a warm reception with the mellow hues of the wood floor covering and the bespoke central staircase. The triple-aspect drawing room is centred around a feature fireplace and has a door leading through to the light-filled garden room where views over the garden to the hillside landscape can be appreciated throughout the seasons. The generous kitchen/breakfast room offers a sociable setting with fittings including wooden cabinetry topped by granite work surfaces and a red stove which is recessed in a brickwork surround. The adjoining reception room offers options for use as a formal dining room or a casual seating area featuring a corner fireplace with decorative tiling. Ground floor rooms are completed by a practical study, a cloakroom and a useful utility which provides an internal link via steps to the double garage.

On the first floor, the roomy landing leads to the three bedrooms, two of which have the benefit of en suite facilities, and a well-appointed family bathroom. The principal bedroom provides a luxurious retreat with a dressing room offering fitted storage and a smart en suite bathroom.

Services: Mains electricity, gas, water and drainage.

Clipped evergreen hedges fronts the lane with mature shrubs and trees affording a sense of privacy at the frontage of the property. Parking is provided by a paved driveway in addition to the sheltered halt of the double garage and decorative timber railings afford a divide and a handrail beside steps leading down to the entrance doorway.

The garden is skilfully landscaped to accommodate the incline with an attractive selection of shrubs and evergreen bushes being planted on the slope which descends to the far margin of the plot. An area of paving outside the garden room offers the perfect spot to sit and while away the hours whilst relaxing and taking in the glorious outlook which can be enjoyed from many aspects of this hillside position.
