1 Brook House Meadow View Wem SY4 5TJ

2 BROOK HOUSE Brook House is a substantial and immaculately presented, large family home that forms part of an exclusive gated development of just three executive properties. The house was beautifully designed and built in 2003 and was purchased by the current owners just two years later. It offered us the combination of all the space we could possibly require inside and out, private location, excellent schooling and local amenities, yet easy access by road and rail from Wem to cities and international airports for business or pleasure.

The front garden is laid to lawn, with a multi-coloured array of hydrangeas and seating area to soak up the morning sun. This extremely attractive property has a wooden portico framing the front door, with partially stained glass panels and matching stained glass windows either side.

The current owners have divided the area for bedroom, home office and there is oodles of space to add a free standing or ensuite bathroom. This level would make a fantastic master suite.
