Middle House, Hanwood, Shrewsbury

Situation: Set in a private location, Middle House has undergone modern refurbishment whilst retaining original features and character.

A panelled entrance door opens to the entrance hall. The two principle reception rooms are placed to the front of the house with the living room to the right and the dining room to the left. The living room has an Inglenook fireplace with log burner set on a quarry tiled hearth with a shaped wooden beam. The dining room has a large sash window to the front and access to the study. The cellar, which is accessed adjacent to the living room, has been fully air filtrated and is currently being used as a gym. To the rear of the hall is the open-plan modern breakfast / kitchen and family room. The breakfast / kitchen has an AGA (electric and fully controllable) with a floor to ceiling dresser and integrated grandfather clock, an island and smart quartz worktop throughout.

The dining room is directly off the breakfast / kitchen featuring a beamed ceiling and log burner with the family room at the opposite end opening up to the landscaped garden via bio-fold doors. Next door is the study which could become a bedroom if needs be with the cloakroom next door. The utility is at the back of the house with original flooring and part used as a boot room with WC and a rear door to the driveway.

From the hall, the stairs ascend to the first floor landing area with a large front sash window allowing natural light. The main bedroom has a generously sized sash window overlooking the front garden, built-in wardrobe and large en suite. The second largest bedroom has a sash window to the front and in-built wardrobes. The bedroom at the rear has views across adjoining countryside, a Jack and Jill bathroom and a step down to what could be used as a dressing room (or a nursery).

A second staircase ascends from the first floor landing up to a second floor landing off which are two further bedrooms. Each room has a gable end window with exposed beam to a shaped ceiling.

Externally, the plot extends to approximately 0.46 acres (0.19 ha) with the majority of the gardens extending off the west side, with a south facing garden to the front. Set back from the road, the house is well screened by mature holly trees whilst gates adorn the gravel drive.
