Eastlands, Marchamley, Shrewsbury, Shropshire, SY4 5JZ

This semi-detached house is in an enviable position, having beautiful views to the front and a large, secure and private garden at the back. It is at the end of a cul de sac, which leads directly onto a short lane and open farmland.

The village is midway between Shrewsbury, Telford and Nantwich, each 1/2 hours drive away, and within 15 minutes of Whitchurch and Wem (which have rail links to mainline stations) and the market town of Market Drayton.

Buses collect children for both primary and secondary schools and in the nearby village of Hodnet is a primary school, shop, medical centre, garage and church.

The house itself is surprisingly spacious and fully insulated and its main attractions are the desirable location, large garden and possibility of extending, with planning permission.

Outside - Front
46' 2" x 37' 0" (14.07m x 11.28m)
The garden is laid to lawn with flower beds and cherry trees. The drive runs alongside the house and has double gates and provides off road parking. The space is also wide enough for an extension.

Outside - Rear
46' 0" x 75' 0" (14.02m x 22.86m)

The rear garden is private and secure and can be accessed through a 6' locked gate. Previously kept as a typical English country garden, but has been rather neglected of late and is in need of work. However, because of its size, it provides enough space to be self-sufficient in fruit and vegetable and still have room for lawns and flowers. It has several apple trees, 2 plum, 2 cherry, 1 pear. It also has black currants, gooseberries, raspberries, loganberries and grape vines. It has well established shrubs, roses and perennials. The greenhouse is pretty ramshackle but still provides a good crop of tomatoes. There is also a poly tunnel. The garage is homemade and has seen better days, but is very useful for storage. It has been extended sideways by the previous owner.
