Vendors Comments:

"I absolutely love living here in this fabulous location. I hope the comments below help you fall in love with the property as much as I did.?

The house itself has a lovely cottage character and enjoys beautiful views towards the Shropshire Hills and out towards Wales.??There is a lovely community spirit along Top Road and it will be hard to leave.?You are spoilt for choice for walks out from the house, up to Poles Coppice and over to Earls Hill and from there to the wider area of outstanding natural beauty (AONB)

As the photos give enough of the detail of the house, let me tell you more about the garden.

The back garden space is great for being self-sufficient, encourage?wildlife and entertain friends. It is south facing so catches the?sun from first thing in the morning through to late afternoon. There is a pergola frame providing cover, when needed, and ample seating area for sunny days. I have electric running to the shed which?houses a large fridge/ freezer (great for entertaining)

The garden is eco friendly - the pond is stocked with plants and is frequented by wildlife. I have?seen frogs, newts and a couple?of dragon flies. There is also a small bumble bee house and wildflowers to encourage bees. There are butterfly friendly plants and fruit bushes.

There are opportunities to be a little more self?sufficient?with two 'allotment' beds containing;

• an espalier?frame running the length?of one side which supports an apple tree and also a greengage tree
• perennial fruit bushes, gooseberry, raspberry and also a rhubarb?plant
• 3 raised bed boxes on patio area outside kitchen window
• outdoor tap.

The front garden catches the sun in the evening and is a great space to chill with a drink and say hi to passer byes on their dog walks.

The flat roof of the kitchen has apparently been used by past owners as another space for raised veggie beds and preparations?have been made to make this into a decking area? - perfect space to catch the full vista of Earls Hill and Pontesbury Hill and the valley beyond.
