Description

A unique and compelling detached residence, constructed of brick with part rendered elevations under a tiled roof and approached over a tarmacadam drive to a large car parking and turning area. On entering Shenstone, the scale of the dwelling becomes apparent, with the internal size measuring about 2,400 square feet. The plot is also a major feature, being circa. 0.41 of an acre and incorporating a large detached garage block, plenty of car parking space and well nurtured gardens.

Internally this is a predominately single storey property that is flexible, adaptable and light. There is enormous scope for the new owner to adapt and further advance to suit individual requirements. Because of the size of the gardens and superb location any improvements would, in our opinion, be well worth while.
