Description

This four-bedroom lodge-style bungalow is situated on the outskirts of the tranquil village of Childs Ercall, surrounded by picturesque views of open fields. The property, characterized by its non-traditional construction, presents a significant opportunity for renovation and potential extension, subject to necessary approvals. While it currently requires modernization and general upgrades, its rural setting and spacious grounds make it a compelling investment for those looking to create their ideal family home or holiday retreat. Childs Ercall is steeped in history, first recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086, and boasts several historical properties. The community-oriented village features a green space with a church, a well-utilized village hall, and local amenities such as the Childs Ercall Club with a bowling green. Conveniently located approximately seven miles from Newport and six-and-a-half miles from Market Drayton, residents can enjoy access to high-quality schools and various shopping options while benefiting from the serene countryside lifestyle. The accommodation includes an entrance porch leading into a hallway that connects to multiple living spaces including a living room with gas fire, a breakfast kitchen equipped with wooden cupboards, and a utility lobby. The double-glazed conservatory opens up to garden views enhancing the property's charm. Four well-sized bedrooms provide ample sleeping quarters along with bathroom facilities that are functional yet ripe for improvement. Outside, the full-length driveway offers substantial off-road parking alongside gardening potential across landscaped grounds. Prospective buyers should note that due diligence regarding mortgage availability is recommended due to the property's construction type. Additionally, an asbestos identification certificate has been acquired, emphasizing the importance of planning any renovations carefully.
