New Banks, Grafton, Montford Bridge, Shrewsbury, SY4 1

FOR SALE WITH NO ONWARD CHAIN

A charming home, significantly extended and improved, tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac with a garden that backs directly onto open countryside. If you're looking for space for the family – both inside and out – and love the idea of having miles of countryside to explore from your doorstep, then this could be just the one.

Grafton – a peaceful setting just minutes from Shrewsbury

Grafton is one of those hidden gems that many people don't discover until they're actively searching for a home in the area. This small rural hamlet is surrounded by beautiful Shropshire countryside, offering a wonderfully peaceful setting with quiet lanes, open farmland and an abundance of walks right on your doorstep. It's the perfect place to enjoy a slower pace of life whilst remaining surrounded by some truly picturesque scenery.

Despite its idyllic rural feel, Grafton is remarkably convenient. Shrewsbury's historic town centre is just a short drive away, providing an excellent choice of shops, restaurants, schools and leisure facilities, whilst the nearby A5 makes commuting further afield straightforward. It really is the best of both worlds – peaceful countryside living without sacrificing everyday convenience.

The house itself

The current owner has significantly extended and improved the property over the years, creating a spacious family home that offers five bedrooms, multiple reception rooms, three bathrooms, a generous utility room and, at its heart, a superb kitchen diner. It's a home that's been thoughtfully designed with the good life very much in mind.

Step through the front door and, to your right, you'll find a welcoming sitting room centred around an open fire – the perfect place to retreat to on a cosy winter's evening.

At the centre of the home is a wonderful reception hall that offers far more than simply a place to pass through. Centred around a charming log-burning stove, it's one of those spaces that immediately creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Whether you choose to furnish it as a cosy reading nook, a place to enjoy a morning coffee, or simply leave it open to appreciate the crackling fire as you move through the house, it's a lovely feature that gives this home real character.

And then you arrive at what is undoubtedly the heart of the home.

This fabulous open-plan kitchen diner has been designed with modern family life very much in mind. Well appointed with an extensive range of shaker-style units, generous worktops, a central island with breakfast bar, a range-style cooker and space for an American-style fridge freezer, it's equally suited to busy weekday life as it is to entertaining. Natural travertine flooring adds warmth and timeless character, while the dining area enjoys a vaulted ceiling with a skylight overhead and French doors opening directly onto the garden, allowing natural light to flood in throughout the day. Whether it's everyday family meals, relaxed Sunday lunches or evenings spent with friends, there's plenty of room for everyone to gather without ever feeling on top of one another.

Another feature we particularly love is the view. Standing at the kitchen sink, you're treated to a glorious outlook across the rear garden and beyond to the rolling Shropshire countryside, with distant hills completing the backdrop. It's one of those views that changes beautifully with the seasons and makes even the everyday jobs just that little bit more enjoyable.

The extension has also created an exceptionally generous utility room, providing ample space for laundry, additional storage, coats, boots and everything else that comes with busy family life – particularly after long countryside walks.

Completing the ground floor is a modern shower room, adding further practicality and convenience.

Head upstairs and you'll find five well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, whilst the remaining bedrooms are served by a family bathroom complete with a corner bath.

Gardens & outside space

The garden is undoubtedly another highlight of this wonderful home.

Occupying a slightly elevated position, the views really come into their own as you step through the French doors onto the patio. From here, your eye is immediately drawn across the beautifully maintained garden and out towards the rolling Shropshire countryside beyond. It's an incredibly peaceful setting and a wonderful place to sit with a morning coffee or unwind at the end of the day.

Towards the end of the garden you'll find a substantial timber outbuilding offering excellent potential as a home office, garden studio, hobby room or simply somewhere to escape with family and friends. A further seating area makes the most of the privacy and far-reaching views, creating yet another fantastic spot for outdoor entertaining.

Overall, this is a deceptively spacious family home that combines generous accommodation, beautiful countryside views and a peaceful village setting with the convenience of Shrewsbury just a few minutes away.
