Robinia, Copthorne Drive, Audlem, CW3

A FABULOUS, COMPREHENSIVELY RENOVATED, DETACHED HOUSE IN A LOVELY GARDEN SETTING ENJOYING STUNNING VIEWS OVER ROLLING COUNTRYSIDE TOWARDS HOLMES BANK, 500 YARDS FROM AUDLEM VILLAGE CENTRE

DESCRIPTION

Robinia, built in 1969 by Leonard Cork of brick under a tiled roof, stands well back from the road, approached over a block paved drive. Over the last twelve months, the current owners have poured in significant capital expenditure and extensive time, completely renovating and reconfiguring the property from top to bottom. All work has been carried out to a high standard. The property extends to about 1,850 square feet including the attached garage and features a fantastic kitchen/living/dining room with window/French windows allowing a flood of natural light and views over the garden and countryside beyond. The double glazed windows with shutters add a touch of style.

The quality of the garden is also notable with the installation of a large flagged terrace that takes full advantage of the South Easterly aspect. Beyond the formal garden, steps lead to a lower garden with ornamental pool, stone walling and a wild flower garden.

LOCATION & AMENITIES

Copthorne Drive has always proved to be a sought after cul de sac location and lies about 500 yards from Audlem village centre. Audlem was mentioned in the Doomsday book as Aldelyme, and Edward 1 granted a market charter in 1295. Audlem is on the Shropshire Union canal, which has a run of 15 locks, designed by Thomas Telford to raise the canal 93 feet from the Cheshire plain to the Shropshire plain. The River Weaver passes West of the village. The sought after, award winning, village of Audlem caters for daily needs with local co-operative store, general store/newsagents, dry cleaners, butchers, flower shop, two restaurants, cafe, three public houses and a medical centre. Nantwich (7 miles) offers a more comprehensive range of services with High Street Retailers, banks, restaurants, leisure facilities and supermarkets. Crewe station (11 miles) provides a fast intercity rail network (London Euston 90 minutes, Manchester 40 minutes). The M6 motorway (Junction 16) is 11 miles. Manchester Airport is 40 miles.

There are numerous sports facilities in the area including tennis, bowling, cricket, football, running and cycling clubs in Audlem. There are two 18 hole golf courses at nearby Whitchurch.

On the educational front, there is a primary school in Audlem (Ofsted Good) and the house lies in the catchment area for Brine Leas High School/BL6 Sixth Form (Ofsted Good).
