Main Description A most impressive and unique contemporary, architect designed, detached property originally two period cottages. The house has been substantially extended and altered to a highly individual design and stands within around 8 acres of grounds. In an elevated position, off a quiet country lane, this fascinating home has extensive glazing providing a light and airy ambience with superb views over delightful countryside.

Beautifully presented, it is a fine example of what can be done by mixing modern features with high quality materials including Welsh slate floors and bespoke oak kitchen units with granite work surfaces. The well proportioned accommodation has been arranged at various levels making a most interesting house, whilst the generous use of glass makes the most of the stunning views over the garden and grounds towards the surrounding hills.

Accommodation briefly comprises; hall, living room, dining room, kitchen breakfast room, utility room, snug, cloakroom, storage rooms, four bedrooms (master with en suite bathroom and a dressing room), large gallery and study area, second en suite bathroom and a Travertine stone wet room.

The house is complimented by lovely gardens and grounds consisting of attractive formal gardens, a small area of woodland, a large vegetable garden and pasture land. Parts of the grounds have wonderful far reaching views towards the Shropshire hills and there is space for stables and outbuildings (subject to the relevant consents) for anyone looking from an equestrian point of view.

Fronheulog is approached from a quiet lane through electrically operated gates onto a paved driveway. This sweeps around the front and side of the house up to a large parking and turning area giving access to the main entrance door and the garage.

OutsideThe gardens and grounds incorporating Welsh stone ‘scant’ walls have been creatively designed to enhance the house and provide a marvelous area to enjoy the surroundings. The formal gardens consist of lawned areas with attractive flower and shrub beds and borders. Across the driveway, a lawn leads to a Potager, which in turn leads to a vegetable garden with raised beds and a large timber potting shed and tractor store. An additional small wooded area has graveled pathways leading through it providing interesting walks. Wide stone steps lead up from the driveway to a large natural York Stone paved area directly in front of the house which forms an ideal space for al fresco dining. A gateway to the east of the house opens onto the gently rolling pasture land, currently maintained as a wildlife meadow with mown paths and arboretum areas. It would also be ideal for those wanting to keep horses, other animals or stock and affords exceptionally fine, far reaching views towards the Shropshire hills.
