A detached post-war family home which has recently been modernised and extended to now offer around 3,400 sq ft of elegantly presented living accommodation alongside generous gardens which extend to just under 1 acre, majestically situated in an elevated position on the edge of Ellesmere with views towards The Mere.

Description - Halls are honoured with instructions to offer Greenacres, Ellesmere, for sale by private treaty.

Greenacres is an impressive detached post-war family home which has recently been carefully extended and improved to now offer around 3,400 sq ft of stylishly appointed living accommodation which perfectly juxtaposes a contemporary array of modern clean lines with the sumptuous comfort of the property's period heritage, all flexibly arranged across two versatile floors.

The property is enviably situated, in an elevated position, within generous gardens which extend, in all, to just under an acre, with, to the north, comfortable family-friendly gardens bordered by open fields, which comprise expanses of lawn, secluded seating areas, and a plethora of established trees and floral beds, alongside a sweeping driveway which culminates at a double garage with store room to the rear.

The southern aspect of the gardens feature a recently installed paved seating area which leads on to a further area of lawn with centrally positioned feature wildlife pond, from where a majestic tree-lined driveway leads down to double-opening gates which overlook an entrance to The Mere.

Situation - Greenacres occupies a majestic, slightly elevated position on the perimeter of the lakeland town of Ellesmere, with access to the town's famous Mere situated directly across from a tree-lined driveway and with an array of day-to-day amenities located within walking distance, these including Schools, Supermarket, Medical Facilities, Public Houses, and a range of independent Shops. The county centre of Shrewsbury lies around 17 miles to the south and offers a more comprehensive selection of attractions, with the cities of Wrexham and Chester positioned within commuting distance to the north.

Schooling - Within a convenient proximity are a number of well-regarded state and private schools, including Lakelands Academy, Ellesmere Primary School, Ellesmere College, Shrewsbury School, Shrewsbury High School, The Priory, Prestefelde Prep. Moreton Hall, Packwood Haugh, and Adcote School for Girls.

Directions - From our Ellesmere office, proceed north along Cross Street and, when reaching a roundabout, take the third exit onto Talbot Street, turning left almost immediately afterwards onto Swan Hill. Continue on Swan Hill for around 0.3 miles until a left hand turn leads onto a country lane; follow the lane for around 300ft and a right hand turn leads onto the driveway for the property, this identified by a Halls "For Sale" board.

The newly constructed aspect of the property allows a wonderfully versatile space, perfect for entertaining or more intimate family moments alike, with a modern fully-fitted kitchen featuring soft-close doors, integrated appliances, and a substantial kitchen island complemented by a welcoming snug/dining area with ample space for seating and dining positioned before dual patio doors and a Scandinavian multi-fuel burner.

A door leads through from the Kitchen/Dining Room to the original portion of the property, with a traditionally-styled Hallway, which boasts parquet flooring and stairs which rise to the first floor, featuring doors which open into two generously proportioned reception rooms, one perfectly suited to more formal dining occasions and the other serving as a welcoming Sitting Room with centrally positioned log-burner, ideal for quiet family evenings.

The ground floor accommodation further comprises a versatile Office which provides an excellent space for those working from home, but which could readily serve as a fourth/guest Bedroom, and is completed by a modernised Shower Room and useful Utility Room, the latter boasting a canine-washing station.

Stairs rise from the Hallway to a first floor landing where doors allow access into three well-proportioned Bedrooms, all enjoying wonderful elevated views in the direction of The Mere, with Bedrooms Two and Three each benefitting from useful walk-in wardrobe space, one of which enters into further attic storage; with the Bedrooms all served by a delightfully modern family Shower Room and separate Cloakroom.
