*VIDEO TOUR AVAILABLE ON REQUEST*The joy of living in this well-presented country house is the feeling that you could be miles from anywhere, yet in reality you are within walking distance of village shops and amenities and only a few minutes drive from Whitchurch!The approach to the house is impressive, the gravel entrance (which also leads to the paddock) and high curved garden wall, immediately creating a favourable impression.Those with numerous vehicles will be able to park a small fleet of vehicles in the driveway and double garage and the house itself offers a versatile accommodation layout in that the 2 downstairs bedrooms could be utilised as additional reception rooms if required.The walled garden provides a private area in which to unwind and relax, which will no doubt be helped by the inclusion of a fully plumbed in 6-person hot tub, adjacent to the fire pit area- bliss!The hamlet of Prees Wood lies a short distance from Prees village and is close to nearby rolling Shropshire countryside, so if you feel the need to escape the 'rat race' then this could be the ideal opportunity!Properties around here are seldom offered for sale, but when they are, they tend to get snapped up quickly and we doubt this will be any different, so an early inspection is strongly recommended.The village of Prees is well served by shops, post office, doctor, hairdresser, village hall, railway station and a primary school. There is a club house within the recreational ground, which also incorporates a bowling club, along with cricket pitch and football fields. It is conveniently placed for travel by car into nearby Whitchurch, Wem, Market Drayton and Shrewsbury.

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
