Alkington Road, Whitchurch, Shropshire, SY13

Location Location Location

Alkington Road is a sought-after area on the western side of Whitchurch. Like many parts of Shropshire Whitchurch is steeped in history, the earliest documentary evidence relating to Whitchurch can be found in the Domesday survey of 1086. But there is evidence going back to Roman times under the name Mediolanum.

Located in North Shropshire, Whitchurch lies 2 miles east of the Welsh border, 2 miles south of the Cheshire border, 20 miles north of the county town of Shrewsbury, 20 miles south of Chester, and 15 miles east of Wrexham. The town centre is bustling with a great high street with many independent shops, restaurants and cafes.

Further out you will have all your major brand food stores, well-respected Primary and Secondary schools and lots of sports facilities. Whitchurch has lots of green spaces and parks to enjoy a walk but if you want a more rural feel this part of Alkington Avenue has access to public footpaths that lead out of Whitchurch and into the Shropshire countryside. The train station even offers free parking.

Now, a little bit about the property itself.

This property has been with the same family for decades and has been a fantastic family. Having been extended it is all about size, 150 sqm to be precise, of versatile living space all sat in a corner plot. From the outside, you don't fully appreciate the size of this proprietor.

Parking is never an issue as you have two driveways and a carport ideal in those wet winters. First impressions are everything, and this property does not disappoint. From the front, you are welcomed by a good-sized garden wrapping around to the right-hand side with some well-chosen shrubbery and flowers.

As you step inside, you are greeted by a bright and airy entrance hall with doors to the dining room, downstairs shower room, a very large living room and the kitchen. Now from the living room you enter the extended part of the ground floor, another big room with doors to the study, conservatory, and downstairs 4th bedroom. The scope and uses for this area of the house are endless.

To the right of the hallway is a good-sized kitchen with a separate entrance hall on the side. There is scope to convert the second entrance hall into a utility room and if you want to have an open-plan kitchen diner just remove the wall and you will have a super-sized space.

Up the stairs, to the first floor, you have three double bedrooms, two with built-in storage and wardrobes along with a family bathroom. Again you have the scope to change the upstairs layout and even add an ensuite.

Outside, you'll find a fully enclosed rear garden that does catch the sun from the south and west. The current vendor has made this into what feels like a cottage garden with scrubs and lots of flowers. A real sun lover's dream as it is very private.

In conclusion, this is a great house ready for someone to upgrade and turn into something special. Huge scope due to the large downstairs living space downstairs, now add a great location and a large corner plot.

Property in brief: Front, side and rear gardens, halfway, downstairs shower room, kitchen, side porch, dining room, large living room, snug, study, conservatory, one downstairs bedroom, a landing, three bedrooms and family. A carport and two driveways.
