Upper Astley, Shrewsbury

A particularly appealing and well presented detached Bungalow with garage and attractive gardens backing onto farmland offering delightful views, whilst having easy access to Shrewsbury.

Directions - From Shrewsbury on the northern outskirts at the Battlefield roundabout, take the A53 towards Shawbury, proceed about 1.2 miles and take the left hand turning, just before the Dog in the Lane pub. Continue along this road and the property will be seen towards the end of the hamlet on the right hand side.

Situation - The property is conveniently situated on the fringe of this popular hamlet, with gardens backing onto farmland offering lovely views over open countryside. The hamlet itself provides a pub, together with a bus service. The neighbouring village of Hadnall includes a shop, pub and primary school. Upper Astley is particularly favoured due to its close proximity to Shrewsbury with the Battlefield area providing business parks and a number of supermarkets in the Battlefield/Harlescott area. From the property there are some attractive walks through to Astley and commuters will find there is ready access through to Telford and Market Drayton.

Description - Meadow View offers a rare opportunity in a rural hamlet to acquire a traditional, well presented and versatile detached Bungalow with lovely well stocked gardens. The accommodation is particularly neat throughout and benefits from a most attractive kitchen, which includes a good range of storage cupboards, breakfast bar and cooking appliances, together with a dishwasher. The lounge is of a comfortable size, whilst there are two bedrooms served by a modern shower room. Configuration of the living space is flexible. The current lounge could be the master bedroom and Bedroom 2 could become the lounge, whilst the patio door from this room then leads through to a sizeable conservatory, which could also be used as a dining room. Alternatively Bedroom 2 could become a dining room if required. Leading off the conservatory there is a useful study/hobbies room. The accommodation as a whole is light and airy and fitted with double glazed windows and a modern gas central heating system.

The good length driveway provides parking space for a number of cars and leads to a garage. The gardens are fairly equally proportioned to both front and rear, well stocked and neatly presented.
