If your idea of bliss is living in a spacious house on a large plot with acreage and surrounded by open countryside, then this could very easily be your dream home!
Yes, this could be your chance to escape to the country and live the good life. A useful range of outbuildings, including 2 stables, allow those with equestrian pursuits to keep horses within the grounds, which include a series of paddocks and a sheltered wooded area.
Location-wise this rural family home is far from isolated and is well paced within easy driving distance of Whitchurch, Ellesmere, Wem, Shrewsbury, Wrexham and Chester.
An internal inspection is recommended, the spacious room dimensions, immediately creating a very favourable first impression, including a 24 foot through lounge, a large dining room and upstairs, four 'double' bedrooms, plus an en-suite Jack 'n' Jill shower room, serving two of the bedrooms, in addition to the family bathroom.
Outside, there is space in the driveway for several cars, in addition to the double width garage.
Above and beyond everything though, it is the location that is the real draw.
Not only does it back onto open fields but Whixall also boasts numerous public footpaths and tracks that provide access to miles of beautiful rolling countryside including Whixall/Bettisfield Mosses nature reserve, bridleways, providing hours of walks (and outriding for those with horses), confirming that this really is Paradise
