Hatton Lodge
Carefully improved and extended, Hatton Lodge is a delightful rural home set in large gardens with outstanding views. Once just a small cottage, the house has been significantly extended to the northerly and westerly elevations to create the flexible and versatile home that exists today. There are panoramic views from almost every aspect with the Welsh Hills to one side and the Wrekin to the other.

Entered via the original porch, a second door opens to a large, light filled entrance hall which provides access to all principal accommodation. The dual aspect study is off one side of the hallway and offers a range of bespoke fitted units as well as a fireplace with wood burning stove. A guest WC is located opposite the study, with the hallway continuing to the sitting room. Offering excellent proportions, the sitting room enjoys garden views via several windows whilst the wood burning stove provides a homely focal point. Opening out from the entrance hall is the open plan kitchen dining family area. The kitchen is set within the original beamed section of the cottage and offers a range of fitted wall and floor cabinetry set under a work surface. A large utility room is off one end of the kitchen. An archway opens through into the dining family area, a highly versatile space that offers plenty of space for dining and sitting. The rear wall is made up of bi fold doors that open all the way across and lead out onto the terrace. Offering underfloor heating and a feature glass atrium, this contemporary space is ideal for modern living.

Stairs rise from the entrance hall to a bright and spacious landing area, with stunning front facing views towards the Wrekin. The dual aspect master bedroom is well proportioned and offers both a dressing area and contemporary en suite shower room. There are a further four bedrooms, three of which are doubles and one which is currently used a second study. A family bathroom with separate shower completes the first floor accommodation.
