In a sought after rural locality, backing onto farmland, yet with easy access to Oswestry town centre. In all about 0.67 acre.

Directions - From Oswestry take the Maesbury Road for about 0.75 mile and turn right onto Ball Lane just before the Original Ball pub. After a very short distance bear right at the fork and follow this lane for about 0.5 mile. The entrance to the property will be seen on the left hand side.

Situation - The property is set down a quiet country lane in a sought after rural locality, only a short distance from Oswestry, approximately 1 mile. Positioned backing onto open farmland whilst the adjacent lane gives access to some lovely walks. There is a good pub close to the end of the lane. Oswestry provides a comprehensive range of amenities, including a shopping centre, business park, schools, emergency medical centre, and a rail service at Gobowen. Further afield, there are good road links to both Shrewsbury and Chester, including Manchester and Liverpool airports.

Description - Ash Tree offers a wonderful opportunity to acquire a truly individual country home, which has since 2019 been extensively refurbished and tastefully extended. The house itself is immaculately presented with a combination of contemporary and traditional features in addition to future proof living.

The accommodation offers both ground and first floor bedroom accommodation with an option for dependent relative accommodation, which could be further extended to incorporate the garage as additional living space. The ground floor accommodation is quite versatile and features two main reception rooms in the original house, both with log burners and one with a rather splendid inglenook fireplace. In addition, there is a beautifully designed semi open plan kitchen dining / living room. The kitchen area offers a wealth of cupboard space, granite work surfaces and various built-in appliances. This room then links through to the dining / living room, a wonderfully light and airy space, which incorporates a contemporary log burner and bifold doors leading out to the rear patio. The adjacent hallway serves the ground floor bedroom and ensuite, together with the option of a further bedroom or study / family room. This area of the house could easily be utilised for a dependent relative and for those seeking larger accommodation, a further extension could link into the garage, which could be converted - subject to any necessary planning consents.

A number of improvements also include the installation of a new external boiler and upgrading of the radiators, which has the option of utilising a Tado App system, with the option of control also through Alexa. The garage has been built with a consumer unit in readiness for the installation of solar panels and driveway electric gates, if required. The roof structure has been upgraded to support the potential solar panels.

The extensive patio area offers wonderful space for outdoor living, including barbeques, alfresco dining, or a hot tub. Prospective purchasers may wish also to note that a new water main pipe has been laid and a surface water drain, whilst a new foul drainage soak away field has been installed. AN INTERNAL INSPECTION IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED IN ORDER TO FULLY APPRECIATE THE STYLE AND PRESENTATION OF THIS FINE HOME.
