Rodington Fields, Rodington, Shrewsbury

The property
17 Rodington Fields is an impressive contemporary family home with handsome red brick elevations outside and beautifully styled accommodation inside. The property offers four bedrooms and four well-proportioned, flexible reception rooms on the ground floor, with a light and airy feel throughout and attractive timber joinery, combined with elegant modern fittings and styling.

The main two reception rooms are the drawing room and sitting room, which are adjoined in a semi open-plan layout running from the front to the rear. The 22ft drawing room has a recessed glass-fronted fireplace and a built-in shelving, while the sitting room at the rear has exposed timber framing, a ceiling lantern skylight and bi-fold doors opening onto the rear garden. The semi open-plan layout continues from the sitting room into the large, airy kitchen and dining area, which has space for a family dining table and features a splendid built-in reading corner with shelving and bench seating. The kitchen itself has sleek, modern fitted units, a central island and a breakfast bar, as well as a Smeg range cooker with an extractor hood and integrated appliances, including an AEG microwave and a wine cooler. The utility room provides overspill storage for the kitchen, as well as space for additional appliances if required. The ground floor also has a useful study for home working, as well as a welcoming reception hall which has a central wooden staircase leading to the first-floor accommodation. This includes four well-presented double bedrooms, each of which is en suite with built in storage. The principal bedroom has a dressing room with fitted wardrobes and a luxury en suite bathroom with a separate shower unit.

Services: Mains electricity, water, gas and drainage.

Outside
At the front of the house, the well-presented garden is enclosed by wrought-iron fencing, with a gate opening onto a paved pathway leading to the entrance. Lawns flank either side of the path, complemented by lavender borders and various established shrubs. To the side, a driveway offers ample parking and access to the double garage which has been converted to a gym - fully insulated with power, lighting and heating.

This could easily be repurposed for parking or workshop space if required. The garden is a credit to the owners hard work and vision. It is presented to a high standard and offers extensive dining and entertaining space with purpose built sunken seating and fire pit, patio for al fresco dining, a timber-decked area with raised border beds, and a gazebo providing shaded seating and dining space.
