Take this turning and the property can be found on the left hand side.

DESCRIPTION
Coombe Cottage is a charming and characterful three-bedroom detached home set within beautiful gardens, enjoying an idyllic rural setting with spectacular panoramic countryside views. Extended to include a stunning timber-framed addition, the property offers exceptional living space filled with natural light and perfectly positioned to take advantage of the breath-taking surroundings. While the cottage would now benefit from some internal updating, it presents a wonderful opportunity to create a truly special country home in a peaceful and highly sought-after location.

The accommodation comprises a kitchen leading through to the dining room, beyond which lies the impressive timber-framed family room. Featuring glazing to two elevations and a “Clearview” wood-burning stove, this remarkable space enjoys uninterrupted views across the surrounding countryside. Centrally positioned within the home is the cosy sitting room, complete with a further Clearview log-burning stove.

To the first floor are three bedrooms and a shower room.

OUTSIDE
Outside, the property has beautifully established gardens with mature planting, a large raised al fresco entertaining terrace, and outstanding far-reaching views across the Shropshire Plain towards Long Mountain and around to Shrewsbury to the rear. There is also an old farm building which would be great for storage. A detached garage provides additional storage and there is parking in front of the garage.
