Wats Drive, Oswestry, Shropshire, SY11

Location, Location, Location

Wats Drive is part of a development on the eastern side of the historic town of Oswestry. Like many places along the English-Welsh border, it has a rich and fascinating history. Over nearly 1,000 years, Oswestry saw many battles, frequently switching hands between Wales and England. This has created the legend of King Oswald.

In more modern times, the town is also known as the birthplace and home of the war poet Wilfred Owen.

Today, Oswestry offers an eclectic mix of architecture—Victorian and Georgian buildings sit alongside modern shops in a bustling town centre. The town is also famous for its historic pubs and their excellent real ales.

If walking is your thing, Llwyn Coppice is just minutes from your doorstep. A slightly longer walk will take you to the Iron Age Hill Fort, one of the best-preserved hillforts in Britain.

When it comes to schooling, you're spoilt for choice, with well-regarded state schools and two private options—Oswestry School and Moreton Hall.

Now, a Little About the Property Itself

From the front, the house is slightly raised above the road. It has a front garden and a driveway suitable for one car. Many neighbouring properties have widened their driveways to create additional parking.

Step inside, and you're greeted by a bright, airy entrance hall. The staircase to the first floor is on the right, with doors leading to the lounge-diner, kitchen, and under-stairs storage.

We love the size of the lounge-diner—it offers a real sense of space, spanning the full depth of the house. Dual-aspect windows ensure it's filled with natural light throughout the day.

The kitchen is generously sized, with ample storage, plenty of worktop space, and room for all essential appliances.

Upstairs, you'll find two double bedrooms—one currently used as an office—a generous single bedroom, and a family bathroom. Storage won't be an issue thanks to a useful cupboard on the first-floor landing.

Outside Space

The fully enclosed rear garden is ideal for enjoying the sun or entertaining guests on the two patio areas. Designed with low maintenance in mind, it also features a small lawn. For those with green fingers, this is a blank canvas ready for colourful flower beds or personal touches.

In Summary

This property does require some renovation and modernisation—some of which has already been started. If you're looking for a house you can truly make your own, and don't mind rolling up your sleeves, this could be the perfect opportunity. The location is excellent, and there's real scope to add value as you turn this house into something special.
