Introducing 'Wentworth', a deceptively spacious detached dormer bungalow occupying a generous and highly private plot.

With its versatile footprint, expansive gardens, integrated single garage, and a tranquil stream boundary offering uninterrupted views over rolling farmland toward the Shropshire Hills, Wentworth is a rare find with endless potential.

The heart of the home is a large, bright L-shaped kitchen and dining room that serves as the central hub for daily living. The kitchen comes fitted with solid timber storage cupboards and drawers, offering a classic base to work from, while sliding doors open directly from the dining area out into the private rear garden for seamless summer entertaining. The dining area flows effortlessly into a cosy living space featuring a central fireplace, which leads directly into the welcoming main hallway.
Accessible from the hallway, the ground floor offers excellent versatility with a second spacious reception room featuring its own fireplace and a large window looking out to the front lawn. This level also includes a generous double bedroom with a bright frontward aspect and a spacious family bathroom comprising a panelled bath, a separate shower cubicle, a hand wash basin, and a WC. Upstairs, the staircase leads to two remarkably spacious dormer bedrooms, both offering excellent head height, ample floor space, and plenty of natural light.
The exterior of Wentworth boasts exceptional curb appeal, sitting well back from the road behind a large, beautifully maintained lawn bordered by mature plants and shrubs. Practicality is unmatched with dual driveways on either side of the property providing extensive off-road parking, alongside an integrated single garage that is perfect for secure parking or additional storage.
The rear garden is an absolute sanctuary, featuring a sweeping lawned area and a greenhouse for the keen gardener. The true highlight of this property is its boundary, where a tranquil, natural stream marks the edge of the plot. Beyond the stream lie spectacular, uninterrupted views over open farmers' fields and the iconic Shropshire Hills in the distance. Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the incredible scale, privacy, and potential on offer.
