A residence fit for a king? Well maybe once it was, and it most definitely can be again, so as long as you behave yourselves here, there'll be no Magna Carta to sign at this Runnymede. Sat on the most generous plots so much so that the current owners in the past had applied for planning permission to have a house built next door, however, this has now lapsed but opportunity might be there again, or maybe you'd love to just have a very large wrap around garden with this stunning period home. You'll drawn up and be amazed not only at it's lovely presence and the immaculate grounds it sits in, but how amazingly convenient for Market Drayton town centre too, placed quite centrally for a nice stroll into town, or maybe along the canal. The grand entrance door opens up into the most wonderful hallway, with all the original, huge, sold wooden doors and crafted with curves handrail to lead you to the first floor. Immediately on your right is the first large reception room used as a dining room which is almost fit for king and grand dinner party! With exceptional high ceilings, coving to the ceiling, a fireplace and big bay window, flooding in loads of natural light, you'll be wanting to get your apron on and start inviting people around for your first banquet! Opposite on the left you have a matching sized room which is the living room. Another lovely room with a fireplace and large windows but still with a cosy feeling for relaxing of an evening. To the end of the hallway is the last door leading to the kitchen/breakfast room which although needs updating, I'm sure it will fill you with excitement of how you will be designing your new culinary home. From here there is a door leading back into the dining room, ideal for entertaining or you could use this room for another sitting room or play room for the kids. there's also a door to the utility room and within that there is cloakroom comprising sink and W.C, everything you'd expect with modern day living, just needing your imagination and time to make it your own. From the kitchen there is a door into the conservatory which stretches the length of the kitchen so a fabulous additional space which then offers the view of the beautiful gardens which have been meticulously maintained. Before we head outside lets go up the incredible staircase with the lovely big handrail winding up to the first floor. Immediately on your left you'll find one of the bedrooms which could be the main or second bedroom, both rooms to the front are of a very similar size with a lovely big window and feature old Victorian fireplaces. Opposite the landing is the matching second bedroom then along the corridor is bedroom four on the left which is a nice double sized room with a window facing out to the side aspect. Directly in front is the family bathroom which is a fabulous size fitted with a bath, sink, W.C and separate shower cubicle. Finally on the right is bedroom three which once again, is a double room with dual aspect windows, a fireplace and fitted wardrobe. Now we head outside where the driveway is incredibly spacious with room for several vehicles. There's a garage towards the back of the house and a shed then the large back lawn will draw your eyes down creating a smile on your face. It's very private, easily maintained with mature hedging and pretty, flat lawn but there's more to discover around the corner. Head along the lawn and you'll see the garden extends quite heavily around the corner to the front again, so if a large is garden is what you're looking for, then this is it. Kids will be overjoyed, gardeners will be leaping with excitement and best of all, it's beautifully maintained so you can just start enjoying it and work out what you'll use it all for. This really is a gem of property that no doubt needs updating to make it your own, but it's tidy and can be lived in whilst you get your fabric and paint samples out with the excitement knowing you can make it your new home.
