The Wardens House, 1 Weald Moors Park TF6

This beautifully presented and immaculately maintained Grade 1 Listed fine house of grand proportions sits on a landscaped plot extending to approximately 0.65 acres, on a private estate, within this popular village. This exceptional home boasts period features and far reaching views.

Description The Wardens House is a stunningly spacious, beautifully presented unique home, set on a plot extending to approximately 0.65 acres. With period features retained throughout and landscaped gardens, this exceptional property also enjoys far reaching views over the open countryside.

Built in 1726, this Grade 1 Listed Georgian 'Preston Hospital' estate was sympathetically renovated by Shropshire Homes in the early 2000's. The Wardens House was built a little later, being a Victorian property designed in the same Georgian style, used as the hospital infirmary, with the cloistered walkway between the main hospital and the house having been cleverly incorporated into the design of The Wardens House as part of the orangery and sun room.

With high ceilings, statement windows and a magnificent sweeping staircase leading to the galleried landing, The Wardens House is elegant, bright and welcoming – providing perfect accommodation for either a growing family or those who enjoy entertaining.

Entered from an open fretwork porch to the front, the grand, yet welcoming reception hallway extends to some 31'11" – finished with low level wooden panelling. To the right, the dual aspect drawing room, featuring a fireplace with multi-fuel burner, enjoys both the morning and evening sunshine. With wooden parquet flooring and large windows, this room provides a formal, yet warm and cosy space to entertain or to just relax. To the other side of the hallway is a similarly appointed dining room, with an open fireplace, perfect for large gatherings of family or friends. Also off the hallway is a small lobby, opening to the laundry, fitted with a range of built in cupboards and the ground floor cloakroom / WC. Also off the reception hall is the original cloistered walkway, which has been converted into a useful sunroom / office, retaining the beautiful original stone architrave and bell system. The kitchen is fitted with a range of modern, traditionally styled wooden units comprising base and wall mounted cupboards and drawers, finished with contrasting worktops and having an integrated under counter fridge, freezer and dishwasher. The recently installed range cooker is available by separate negotiation. The kitchen opens directly into the orangery – a superbly bright space extending to some 23' x 20', having full height windows and French style patio doors to both sides, including two sets of doors opening into the exquisite secluded courtyard area (with patio seating space, fountain and covered well). Off the orangery is the fourth bedroom, having an en-suite wet room and built in storage cupboard.

The grandly curved oak staircase rising from the reception hall leads to the airy galleried landing, having parquet flooring, two windows and an impressive chandelier (also available by separate negotiation). The master bedroom is dual aspect with fitted wardrobes and a chest of drawers housing the sink. Off this is the en-suite shower room, featuring a traditional WC with high level flush and rain-head style thermostatic shower. Bedroom two is situated over the dining room, also being dual aspect, with a built-in wardrobe to the side of the chimney breast. Bedroom three is also a large double, having an east facing aspect with open fireplace. Off the landing is a small lobby opening to the family bathroom, which features a traditionally styled white three piece suite. A loft hatch with integral ladder opens to the boarded roof storage space, where a window opens to the parapet, allowing the owners to access the roof area for maintenance or to simply enjoy the far reaching views to all sides of the property.

Externally, the home has off road parking for several vehicles in front of the detached double garage, which also features a loft space with eaves storage and velux style windows, useful for many purposes. There is a fully enclosed front garden with pedestrian access through a wrought iron gate in the wall to the lawned space, bordered by established trees and shrubs. The rear garden is accessed via a gate to the side of the garage and this beautifully landscaped space consists of various patio seating areas to enjoy the sunshine at different times of the day, along with mature trees and shrubs, manicured lawns and an open fence to the end, accessing the views over the surrounding countryside. As well as this private outside space, the residents of The Wardens House, being members of the Home Park (Preston) Residents' Association, are able to enjoy the estate's communal gardens, which extend to some two acres.

Other benefits of the Home Park (Preston) Residents' Association include buildings insurance, lighting and grounds upkeep, as well as exterior satellite TV provision, ensuring that the integrity of the development remains.

Being a property which someone could move straight into, this fine house of generous proportions, should appeal to a wide range of purchasers.
