House For Sale £499,950
Directions: From Market Drayton town centre proceed out along Shropshire Street, take the second left into Salisbury Road and continue to the T junction. Turn left into Red Bank Road and as you drive down the hill, you will locate the slabbed driveway on the right hand side.
If you are searching for a large detached period property, somewhere that will give you all the privacy you need yet only a couple of minutes from the town centre of Market Drayton, you will struggle to find anything better than Summerhill. Properties of this kind rarely come onto the market, so please be quick to avoid disappointment.
You will notice from the photographs that after many years in the same family, the house requires updating to bring it up to modern standards and restore it to its former glory. Once completed, Summerhill will provide the perfect family home. The house sits in an elevated position with a wonderful sunny outlook across the valley towards Salisbury Hill. The long driveway leads up from Red Bank Road to a large parking area which gives access to the house, garage and workshop and private and extensive landscaped gardens surrounding the house provide different areas to sit and enjoy the views.
There are many period features including sash windows, large bay windows, quarry tiled floors, panelled doors, decorative covings and much more.
The full living accommodation comprises: Reception hall, lounge, sitting room, dining room, breakfast/kitchen with walk-in pantry, scullery, inner hallway, cloakroom, landing, four bedrooms, bathroom, cellar, attic, large surrounding gardens, driveway, parking area, garage and brick shed.
