The home, in the agent’s words

Read the full agent description

Set discreetly back from Lower Shelton Road behind a generous landscaped frontage, the property enjoys an enviable level of privacy, extensive off-road parking, a covered carport and beautifully established gardens, creating a wonderful first impression from the moment you arrive. Occupying a substantial plot in one of the villages most sought-after locations, this versatile home has been thoughtfully designed to suit a wide variety of buyers. Whether youre looking for flexible multi-generational living, seeking accommodation that can adapt with changing needs, or simply searching for a peaceful village home with outstanding outside space, this property effortlessly delivers.

The welcoming entrance hall leads through to a spacious living room, whilst the heart of the home extends into an impressive sun room spanning the full width of the rear elevation. Flooded with natural light and enjoying uninterrupted views across the beautifully maintained gardens, this wonderful reception space provides the perfect setting for entertaining or simply relaxing, with French doors opening directly onto the patio and lawn beyond. The kitchen is complemented by a separate utility room, while a ground floor cloakroom and family bathroom add further practicality.
A particularly attractive feature of the property is its flexible bedroom arrangement. Unlike many homes of its size, the accommodation provides a generous principal bedroom on the ground floor alongside the family bathroom, making it an excellent option for buyers looking to future-proof their home. Upstairs, two further bedrooms are served by an additional bathroom, with the principal first floor bedroom enjoying direct access onto a private roof terrace. From here, elevated views stretch across the mature rear gardens and neighbouring countryside, with paddocks beyond often home to grazing horses, creating a wonderfully peaceful outlook rarely found.

The gardens themselves are a true highlight. Beautifully landscaped and lovingly maintained over many years, they provide a superb balance of manicured lawn, mature planting, established borders and secluded seating areas. Backing onto open fields, the setting offers a wonderful sense of space and tranquillity, making it easy to forget how conveniently positioned the property is for village amenities and commuter links alike.

The generous frontage continues the home`s appeal, with a sweeping driveway and attractive carport comfortably accommodating up to five vehicles, providing practicality for growing families or those who simply appreciate ample parking.

Combining an idyllic village setting, flexible accommodation, breathtaking gardens and exceptional potential, properties of this nature are a rare gem, particularly within this highly regarded part of Marston Moretaine. Furthermore, neighbouring homes have demonstrated the outstanding scope available by undertaking significant extensions and remodelling, highlighting the exciting potential this substantial plot could offer to future owners, subject to the relevant planning permissions.
