Situation - Norton-in-Hales is one of North Shropshire's most picturesque and sought-after villages, situated approximately four miles north-east of Market Drayton.
The village is particularly well served by a highly regarded Church of England primary school, located on Main Road, together with a popular village pub and excellent sporting and recreational facilities including cricket, tennis, bowling and the recreation ground.

The property is approached via an entrance hall which provides access to the principal reception rooms, including a generous living room, separate dining room and study, together with a cloakroom with W.C.
A particular feature is the large farmhouse-style breakfast kitchen, providing an excellent heart to the home and ample space for family dining and entertaining.
A useful utility room and rear entrance hall/boot room provide practical everyday accommodation.
To the first floor is a large and impressive landing, enjoying lovely views towards the village cricket club and recreation ground.

Outside And Gardens - The gardens are a particular feature of Yew Tree House.
To the front and side are mature landscaped gardens, with generous areas of lawn, established flower borders and the magnificent Yew Tree which gives the property its name.
A private driveway provides parking for a number of vehicles and leads to the garage, with additional space suitable for a caravan or motorhome.
The principal garden lies to the rear of the house and provides an attractive and private setting, incorporating a broad lawn, mature flower borders, flagstone paved patio and a charming summer house.
Beyond this is a further substantial area of garden which leads away from the house and offers considerable versatility.
