The Property
A truly delightful and thoughtfully renovated period residence, offering a wonderful balance of character, contemporary comfort and energy efficient living, set within approximately 5.5 acres of beautifully maintained gardens, paddocks and woodlands, all surrounded by the rolling Shropshire Hills. Occupying a peaceful position within a charming village setting, this impressive, staggered end of terrace cottage enjoys a sense of seclusion without feeling isolated, providing an idyllic lifestyle opportunity for those seeking space, tranquillity and versatility.
Lovingly refurbished by the current owners, the property now presents a well-considered layout arranged over two floors. The accommodation offers three bedrooms, well-appointed bathroom facilities and a series of versatile reception spaces, all enhanced by an abundance of natural light and attractive outlooks across the surrounding grounds.
A welcoming porch leads into the ground floor accommodation, where you will find two generously proportioned bedrooms, one of which offers flexibility to be utilised as an additional reception room if required, with the benefit of a log-burning stove and character features. These rooms are serviced by a stylishly finished bathroom and a useful utility space.
Heading upstairs to the first floor, the property truly comes into its own, where the principal living accommodation has been arranged to take full advantage of the far-reaching countryside views. The open-plan kitchen diner forms the heart of the home, fitted with modern units and centred around a sociable layout ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Doors open directly onto a superb balcony, providing a wonderful vantage point to enjoy the surrounding landscape, perfect for al fresco dining or simply unwinding whilst taking in the peaceful setting. Adjacent to the kitchen is a spacious dining room, which flows seamlessly into a further reception room, creating a light and inviting environment with ample space for family gatherings and impressive far-reaching views throughout. The principal bedroom is also located on this floor and benefits from its own en-suite shower room, creating a comfortable and private space.
Externally, the property is equally as impressive offering a range of useful outbuildings, including a traditional stone barn, timber-framed structures, stables and a car port, all of which offer excellent potential for a variety of uses, whether for storage, workshops, hobby spaces or other purposes. The current vendors have created a wonderful home office/studio which would make an equally impressive hobby room (please note there is a restriction in place to prevent this being turned into further accommodation).
The site is a registered smallholding extending to approximately 5.5 acres and thoughtfully arranged to include formal garden which includes vegetable plots, a potting shed, 2 greenhouses, polytunnel and an orchard area. The 3 paddocks are bordered with woodlands and sections of natural coppice. The gardens adjacent to the property offer well-established lawns, a herb garden, vegetable plots with raised beds, mature shrubs, trees and wildlife-friendly areas, while a nature pond further enhances the biodiversity and charm of the setting. A number of seating areas have been carefully positioned throughout the gardens, allowing you to follow the sun throughout the day and fully appreciate the tranquillity of the surroundings. The 'party barn' is worthy of note as it enjoys far reaching views offering the perfect spot to watch the beautiful sunset in the warmer evenings. This oak and cedar barn has water and power and can accommodate livestock.
The property also benefits from eco-friendly credentials, offering both environmental and cost efficiencies.
Offered to the market with no onward chain, this exceptional home presents a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully balanced country residence, combining lifestyle, land and character in equal measure.
