Description - Halls are delighted with instructions to offer The Griffin Farmhouse in Dudleston for sale by private treaty.

The Griffin Farmhouse is an elegant three-bedroom detached period farmhouse which has been lovingly maintained by the current vendor and which boasts around 2,400 sq ft of sympathetically presented living accommodation arranged across two generously proportioned floors.

The property is enviably situated within generous gardens which extend, in all, to around 0.30 ac and occupies a slightly elevated position above an unspoiled landscape of fields and farmland which unfold before it. Gated access leads off a quiet country lane onto a gravelled parking area with ample space for a number of vehicles, this complemented by expanses of lawn, paved seating areas, and floral beds.

Situation - The property occupies a particularly pleasant and slightly elevated position within the rural hamlet of Dudleston, which nestles amongst the rolling fields and open farmland of the north Shropshire landscape, with an abundance of quiet country lanes and public footpaths providing a haven for those with rambling and cycling interests. Despite its peaceful setting, the property retains a convenient proximity to the nearby centres of St.Martins and Ellesmere which, between them, provide a range of day to day amenities, including Schools, Supermarkets, Public Houses, Restaurants, Medical Facilities, and a range of independent shops, with the county centres of Wrexham and Shrewsbury positioned to the north and south respectively and enjoying a more comprehensive range of amenities.

Schooling - The property is conveniently positioned for access to a number of well regarded state and private schools, including Criftins C of E Primary, St.Martins School, Ellesmere Primary School, Lakelands Academy, Ellesmere College, Moreton Hall, and Oswestry School.

Turning right from the Reception Hall one enters a classically appointed Dining Room, complete with exposed wood flooring, offering excellent potential for use as a Family Room or for more formal entertaining occasions. The Reception Hall culminates at a door which opens into a wonderfully sociable Kitchen/Breakfast Room, this serving as the heart of the home and warmed by an oil-fired AGA, whilst also featuring a selection of fitted units positioned before dual-aspect windows, with planned space for seating complemented by bi-folding doors which exit directly onto the garden and allow for a seamless transition between the internal and external elements of the home.

Completing the ground floor accommodation is a useful Laundry Room which leads through to a ground floor Shower Room, with, beyond the Kitchen, a series of semi-external rooms presently serving as a Utility Room incorporating a Belfast sink with shower attached, Boot Room, and two Stores.

Stairs rise from the Reception Hall to a first floor landing with recessed storage cupboard, from where doors allow access into three comfortably sized Bedrooms, each able to accommodate double beds and with the Principal Bedroom boasting an adjoining En-Suite Shower Room which comprises a walk-in shower cubicles, hand basin, and WC. The remaining two Bedrooms are served by a Family Bathroom which juxtaposes exposed wooden flooring with a modern white suite comprising a freestanding bath.
