An imposing 1838 Vicarage occupying a generous plot on the Shropshire/Staffordshire border, this five-double-bedroom detached house combines original Gothic Revival character with significant scope for improvement. High ceilings, mullion windows, cast fireplaces and exposed timbers give the house strong period appeal, while wrap-around landscaped gardens, gated driveways and a two-storey hayloft provide extensive parking, garaging and outbuildings.
Arranged over a substantial footprint (c.4,219 sq ft) the layout suits a large family, multi-generational living or home working: three reception rooms, breakfast kitchen, scullery/bakehouse and cellar offer flexible living spaces. Bedrooms are all doubles and the house benefits from countryside views from many principal rooms. The setting is peaceful and very affluent, with low local crime and easy access to Newport and the A41 for commuter links.
The house requires renovation throughout: the property has an EPC rating of G, uses oil heating, and needs cosmetic and likely mechanical upgrades to reach modern standards. Slower broadband and average mobile signal might affect home working or streaming without investment in connectivity. Council Tax is high (Band G) which should be factored into running costs.
For buyers seeking period character and space in a quiet village setting, this offers a rare opportunity to create a substantial family home or a bespoke restored residence. The large plot, outbuildings and architectural features provide clear value drivers, but budget for refurbishment, energy improvements and connectivity upgrades when considering purchase.
