Four-bedroom detached dormer house, newly renovated interior
Approximately 1.5-acre plot with two paddocks and established gardens
Extensive outbuildings: garage, workshop, stables and stores
Electric gated entrance and generous off-street parking
Oil-fired boiler and radiators — ongoing fuel costs expected
Drainage to septic tank/soakaway located in smaller paddock
Slow broadband speeds and average mobile signal in area
Property built pre-1900; external walls likely uninsulated (assumed)
Heath Lodge is a newly renovated four-bedroom detached dormer house set in about 1.5 acres, offering a rare combination of period character and substantial outdoor space. The living areas include a large lounge with wood-burning stove, bright conservatory, and a generous open-plan kitchen and breakfast area — all presented for immediate family living. The plot includes two paddocks, stables, a substantial outbuilding with garage, workshop and stores, and electric gated access with ample parking, making it well suited to hobby equestrian use or those wanting extensive garden and outbuilding space.
Practical considerations are clear: heating is from an oil-fired boiler with radiators (not a community supply), drainage is to a septic tank and soakaway located in the smaller paddock, and broadband speeds are reported as slow. The property dates from before 1900 with sandstone/limestone walls that are assumed to have no insulation — buyers may want to budget for fabric improvements and ongoing running costs. Council Tax sits above average (Band E) and there are planning applications adjacent to the site; prospective purchasers should check the Telford & Wrekin Council planning portal.
This home will appeal to families or buyers seeking a substantial rural plot with outbuildings and flexible accommodation already thoughtfully modernised. The property’s low local crime rate, seclusion and large wrap-around gardens create privacy and scope for outdoor living. For purchasers prioritising connectivity or low-energy running costs, note the slow broadband and oil-fuel heating, which may influence future upgrade plans.
