DESCRIPTION

Within just over half an acre, the four-bedroom property combines exceptional period charm, with thoughtfully arranged and deceptively spacious living spaces offering beautifully proportioned and characterful accommodation.

The impressive ground floor arrangement is centred around three distinctive reception rooms. The cosy, convivial Dining Room, featuring an attractive ingle-nook fireplace and wood-burning stove, the large Study, (or Sitting Room), also with fireplace, and the Garden Room, forming the heart of the home, extended as a stunning contemporary space, with elevated, panoramic of views over the enchanting sunken gardens.

In addition to the connecting Entrance Hall is a thoughtfully designed and stylish modern Kitchen, along with adjoining Cloakroom and Utility Room.

A generous first floor landing connects the four well-proportioned bedrooms, with fitted wardrobes, a well-appointed family bathroom, and the master Bedroom has an en-suite bathroom.

THE GARDENS
The adventurous garden layouts are a special and defining feature of the property, beautifully landscaped and wonderfully private. The lawns and paths between broad reaches of mixed border, shrubs and trees, identify a range of expression of the classic English country-cottage garden.

Areas of strategically placed seating, on terraces, under pergolas and arches, beside the garden pond, each provide intimate sanctuary and multiple opportunities for attractive alfresco eating and entertainment, all discretely sited around and conveniently close to the house itself.

Three separate garden outbuildings comprise a timber lean-to garden store, in the sunken garden, a detached stone log-store and oil tank, and a detached timber, 4.3m x 3.8m scandi-type home-workshop, located on the generous entrance drive, which itself serves as parking for at least four cars.

THE PADDOCK
Adjoining the formal gardens is a delightful grass paddock, enclosed by mature hedgerows and trees, accessed via its own independent entrance. The timber, 3.0m x 2.4m store, also has an open-fronted 4.8 x 3.0 m lean-to store. This distinct and picturesque parcel of land enjoys magnificent, elevated views across the spectacular Corvedale. Whether to be used as an extension to the house gardens, for keeping livestock, hobby farming, or for potential alternative uses. (subject to necessary planning consents)

Overall this is a valuable and rare manifestation of the English country home. Combining timeless character, beautifully presented accommodation, exquisite gardens set in one of the finest rural landscapes of south Shropshire, where peaceful modern living, privacy and panoramic views come together in perfect harmony.
