Bridge End is a substantial five-bedroom detached home providing over 2,000 sq. ft. of well maintained and flexibly arranged living accommodation, with a range of versatile reception rooms complemented by five bedrooms situated across two generous floors.
The property is situated within wonderfully kept gardens which extend to approx. 0.25 acre, these comprising established floral beds, areas of lawn, attractive seating areas and, most notably, canal frontage with mooring.
Situation - The property occupies a truly exquisite position within the rural hamlet of Lower Frankton on the banks of the Llangollen Branch of the Shropshire Union Canal, providing immediate access to a network of towpaths, country lanes, and public footpaths which make it a haven for those seeking a more tranquil setting.
Lower Frankton is conveniently situated broadly equidistant between the picturesque town of Ellesmere and the thriving market town of Oswestry which, between them, offer a range of day-to-day amenities. The county centres of Shrewsbury, Wrexham, and Chester all lie within easy reach, and nearby Gobowen and Wem enjoy rail links to the wider area.

Schooling - Within a short drive are a number of highly rated state and private schools including Ellesmere Primary, Lakelands Academy, Whittington CofE Primary, The Marches, Ellesmere College, and Oswestry School.
Directions - Leave Ellesmere via the A495 in the direction of Oswestry, continuing for around 2.6 miles until, shortly after cresting The Brow, a left hand turn (signposted Lower Frankton) leads towards Lower Frankton. Proceed on this lane for 0.9 miles, continuing straight on when the road veers to the right, and turning right shortly after to pass over the canal bridge, where the property will be situated immediately on the left and identified by a Halls "For Sale" board.
The Property - The property is principally accessed by a side door which opens into an Entrance Hall with Cloakroom to the side. From the Entrance Hall, a door provides access into an interconnecting array of versatile Reception Rooms which afford the home a particularly sociable feel and make it ideal for entertaining and family moments alike. The Reception Rooms emerge into a glazed Conservatory, which offer splendid views across the gardens, whilst also leading through to a compact Kitchen comprising a selection of fitted base and wall units, alongside a window which overlooks the canal.
A door opens from the Sitting Room into a stairwell, from where stairs rise to the first floor and a further door allows access into a ground floor Bedroom with recessed storage, with the room ideal for guests, those with mobility concerns, or for use as a Study, the latter being of particular interest for those buyers looking to work from home and enhancing the property's versatility.
To the first floor is a spacious landing which has previously served as a Study Area, and from where access is provided into four comfortably-sized Bedrooms, each enjoying elevated views across the surrounding landscape. Of particular note is Bedroom Two which extends to over 400 sq ft and which has previously served as a substantial Hobby Room. The Bedrooms are served by a well appointed Bathroom with a Jack & Jill door leading directly into Bedroom One.
The Gardens - The gardens of Bridge End provide a haven for wildlife and are truly the jewel within the property's crown, extending, in all, to around 0.25 acre.
Doors exits directly from the Conservatory onto an attractive paved patio which overlooks the well maintained gardens towards the canal, and represents an idyllic spot for outdoor dining and entertaining, or for simply appreciating the calibre of the setting. The patio leads on to lovingly tended gardens which comprise areas of shaped lawn, established planting, mature trees, and a Greenhouse with power laid on, all culminating at steps which segue past soft fruit trees to a brook which marks the boundary. The northern boundary immediately abuts the Llangollen Branch of the Shropshire Union Canal, allowing for serene views. Mooring bollards are in place and we are advised that mooring is possible with permits from the Canal and River Trust, making the property a boating enthusiasts dream.
To the fore and side of the property is parking, the former of which leads on to an integral double garage (approx. 7.26m a 5.20m), with two metal up-and-over front access doors and with power and light laid on.
The gardens also boast a detached brick-built outbuilding presently serving as an external Utility Room.

Tenure - The property is said to be of Freehold tenure and vacant possession will be granted upon completion.
