Situation: Dating back to the late 18th century, Walford House was originally two houses, the main house and the coachman’s house, which have been joined to create one large family home. The current owners have been in residence since 1984 and carried out extensive renovations over the years incorporating the doctor's surgery next door.

The main house comprises of just under 4,000sqft, and as you would expect, all of the rooms have generous proportions. On the ground floor, there is a generous entrance hall, a well-proportioned and fully equipped kitchen with a breakfast room just off, a large dining room with a feature fireplace enjoying wonderful views out to the garden, and next door, a 27ft by 26ft dual aspect living room with a central fireplace and French doors leading out onto the garden at the rear. The property also benefits from a downstairs boot room and washroom.

Upstairs, on the first floor, there are four generous double bedrooms, a study / extra bedroom, large bath / shower room and a further cloakroom. On the second floor, there are two further double bedrooms, a large shower room and a store room which could become another bedroom if a buyer so wished.

Outside, there is a large outbuilding with a loft for garden equipment. There is off-road parking for three cars to the west of this outbuilding, off the garden. Further there is a large, open, west-facing garden surrounded by a mature border.

Separately, there is a former doctor's surgery of just under 1,500sqft, with planning permission (18/02420/COU) to be converted into residential accommodation, which has now become redundant due to the practice moving to a newer building on the edge of the village. The surgery has its own direct access to the street and has a provision to be converted into a two bedroom annexe.

Prees is a healthy community with a shop and a Post Office, sports and recreation ground, medical practice, a church and a thriving primary school. Prees also benefits from a train station on the main Manchester to Cardiff line with trains running at regular intervals.

There will be a shared right of access (where the green arrow indicates a new access created on the map adjacent) to the Vendor’s new house and Walford House. A new parking area for Walford House will be created.

Directions: From Shrewsbury take the A49 north towards Whitchurch. After approximately 11 miles take the left turn to Prees. Follow this road around and continue along Shrewsbury Street. No.26 can be found after a short distance on the left-hand side.
