Description - Robinia, built in 1969 by Leonard Cork of brick under a tiled roof, stands well back from the road and is approached over a block paved drive. The house and gardens have been thoroughly cared for and the property comes to the market for the first time in 38 years.
With space, versatility, much natural light and the scope to be adapted to suit individual requirements, this excellent house has much to offer. Externally, the large gardens are a delight, provide colour and interest through the seasons and form a particular feature of the house. We feel because of its location, size of gardens and outlook any work carried out by the next owners will be really worthwhile.
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 Aldelime, and Edward I 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.
