A completely original 1920’s property of some stature in a superblocation near Patshull Park and enviably, on the outskirts of the highly sought after village of Albrighton,with its renowned schools and medical practice, plethora of shops, pubs andrestaurants. The railway station is situated close by and the property is only5 minutes away from junction 3 of the M54

Approached via electronically operated wrought iron gates and surrounded by lawns and mature gardens, this country house of distinction presents a dramatic first impression with its particularly wide horseshoe shaped front façade, its numerous sash windows, substantial front door in commanding entrance porch and garaging for several cars. In the last 13 years, the present owners have stripped back this house to, quite literally, the barest of shells and painstakingly and with no expense spared, created a unique residence, architecturally designed to follow a broadly Georgian pattern, of exceptionally generous dimensions and with the artistic inspiration and attention to every period detail by the current owners. Transformed by the views of the stunning gardens afforded by the huge timber double glazed sash windows, usually many to each room, and with its high ceilings flooded with light, the property boasts many outstanding features which are carried thematically through to create a cohesive style that enhances the flow of the layout. The striking reception hall, the heart of the house extends cavernously to the first floor with an exceptional mahogany staircase, balustrading and galleried landing, and provides a pivotal centre from where all the main rooms radiate and interconnect by means of heavy hard wood double doors. The house has very considerable balanced and square proportions and presents a particularly desirable property of some importance. The garden is simply outstanding. There is so much to take in, idling through the leafy groves around the pool (covering an area of some two or three tennis courts and with an island area for wildlife preservation), weaving between superb oak trees and wooded copses, and under scented rose arches and catching, through  fluttering foliage, a glimpse of the imposing house, conjures a feeling of walking around the grounds of a  National Trust Property, to the extent that a ‘To the tea room’ sign wouldn’t be out of place! A fabulous tree house and walkway between two majestic old oaks barely overhangs the edge of the pool and an old Victorian style Summer House  nestles into a verdant backdrop. Exquisite roses clamber and carelessly tumble over archways and garden walls and sprawl effortlessly over prolific herbaceous beds; large expanses of level lawned areas, ideal for croquet and marquee parties are expertly managed and elegantly set off the fine house. An extensive patio off the breakfast kitchen and a sheltered pergola with ubiquitous rampaging rose provide for outside dining and general lounging and enjoy a secluded outlook onto a charming cottage garden area. A quintessential kitchen garden behind post and rail fencing with raised beds separated by gravel paths, a cage for soft fruit and an orchard with a variety of fruit trees behind adds up to the ultimate in all gardens. It is hard to believe that the house and garden area are encompassed in just 3 acres; the remaining three being made up of paddocks. The old stable block is now incorporated into the back of the house and this certainly has potential for conversion and there is also a small brick stable to the end of one field. There is further versatile accommodation in the form of an office facility behind the garage and an enormous 32’ attic room on the second floor.
