SITUATION
The Lake House enjoys one of the finest settings in North Shropshire. The gardens and wooded grounds surrounding the house are unique and the aspect over the tree fringed lake quite charming. North Shropshire is predominantly an area of grassland farms and The Lake House which has all its land within a ring fence is well serviced with private roads and set out very much as a model farm. Within a mile of Ellesmere, the property, although standing in a rural location, is well situated for travelling to Shrewsbury and Chester and motorway links to the north and south via the M54 and M56 are convenient.
THE PROPERTY
This splendid south facing property which comprised an architect designed dormer bungalow built in 1930 was very extensively altered with the additional storey in 1989 and finished to a high standard. The present vendors have incorporated within the property some very fine features to suit the modern family. The carriage entrance is unusual but practical and there is a superb veranda which enjoys the southerly aspect over sloping lawns to the lake beyond. The property is beautifully proportioned with 2 quality brick and a first class Welsh slate roof. The double gated entrance provides security and privacy to this much loved property. The accommodation comprises:

FINE RECEPTION HALL
with 1930's corbelled chimney breast, extended hall with oak panelled staircase.
UNUSUAL DRAWING ROOM
with large inglenook and bay, oak panelled walls, French doors to period veranda.
EXCELLENT CONSERVATORY

STUDY, CLOAKS & PANTRY

ON THE 1ST FLOOR
the central landing provides access to a superb master bedroom suite with walk in Dressing/wardrobe, beautifully appointed En-suite Shower Room with walk through shower.
GUEST BEDROOM

THREE FURTHER BEDROOMS
There are a further Three Excellent Bedrooms with Family Bathroom with central free standing bath and separate shower. There is access on the first floor to a further Veranda which also overlooks the lake and gardens
OUTSIDE
The Triple Car Garage has automated roller doors and separate courtesy door. A magnificent feature of The Lake House is the lake located to the west and slightly below the house. The view from the house over a sloping lawn with fine specimen Wellingtonia and the lake behind is quite outstanding.
The approach to the property is via one of two entrances. The first entrance, Lake House Farm, passes the principal farm buildings and then enters The Lake House. There are two sets of automated gates after which there is a long drive to the gatehouse which leads to the main house. The circular driveway with central lawn has been aesthetically created. Access to the house can also be obtained by following the road round to the rear of the property which also leads to the stable yards, pasture and woodland generally.
Direct access to the stable yards can also be gained from the second entrance marked Lake House Stables. This entrance is also automated. There are most attractive beds and borders within the garden areas which include rhododendron and azalea, the whole surrounded by the finest trees in North Shropshire. In addition to the attractive formal garden, there is a raised vegetable plot together with fruit trees and further separate orchard. The lake which covers nearly two acres has a most pleasing walk way around it via a pair of bridges. The setting is tranquil and the lake for much of the year covered with lilies attracts a number of wild duck and geese.

RANGE OF FARM BUILDINGS
A separate range of farm buildings are located adjacent to the main entrance drive. There are ample concreted yard
areas, a very useful stock/exercise building with woodchip surface approximately 90ft x 24ft,
Sheeted Dutch Barn 60ft x 24ft, further yard areas and ancillary buildings.
A brick and slated two storey building close to the main entrance to the property also with views over the lake lends itself to conversion as Ancillary Accommodation for a gardener/farm manager or a groom.

EQUESTRIAN FACILITIES
The Stables
These are approached either from the house, by vehicle or on foot, or via the second automated entrance with paddocks on either side. This road leads directly to the stable yards, pasture, woodland and house beyond.

THE LAND
The farm is all laid down to permanent pasture and is within a ring fence. Two internal farm roads provide excellent access to each of the fields and two such fields have frontage to Sandy Lane. The land in addition to being well served with the two farm roads is equally well served with trough watering to each of the 14 enclosures on the property. Of the 84 acres approximately 10 acres are taken up by attractive plantations or woodland. There is a parcel of 15 acres, adjacent to the holding which is available on a short or long term basis, making the total holding 100 acres.
