Occupying a delightful tucked-away position within the picturesque hamlet of Weston Lullingfields, this attractive and charming detached two-bedroom Lock Keeper's Cottage dates from the late 1700s and offers a wonderful blend of period character, modern comfort and countryside tranquillity. Importantly, the property is not a listed building, providing greater flexibility for future alterations, and offers potential for extension or further development, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
The well-presented accommodation comprises an entrance hallway, a comfortable lounge, a separate sitting room, a refitted kitchen/breakfast room, a ground floor bathroom, and a first floor landing leading to two double bedrooms. Outside, the property benefits from a driveway providing off-road parking, a brick-built summerhouse, and a beautifully maintained rear garden designed for ease of upkeep while offering an attractive outdoor space to enjoy.
Set down a quiet country lane away from the main village thoroughfare and surrounded by open countryside, the cottage enjoys a particularly peaceful setting within a friendly rural community. Weston Lullingfields itself offers a primary school, church and village hall, while the nearby village of Baschurch provides a range of everyday amenities including a convenience store, farm shop, traditional village pubs, takeaway outlets and a well-regarded GP practice.
Despite its idyllic rural location, the property remains well connected, benefiting from a local bus route, convenient access to mainline rail services from Shrewsbury and excellent road links via the A5 and M54 motorway network. Shrewsbury's extensive shopping, leisure and educational facilities are also within easy reach.
Offering character, privacy, a beautiful setting, practical amenities and future potential, this delightful cottage represents an excellent opportunity for those seeking a peaceful country lifestyle within a welcoming community.
