This charming two-bedroom end-terrace cottage sits in the popular village of Cross Houses, around five miles south of Shrewsbury. The house offers well-proportioned, characterful living rooms with exposed beams, an inglenook-style fireplace and a wood-burning stove that create a cosy feel throughout. A generous south-east facing rear garden with patio, vegetable plot and mature hedging is a standout for outdoor living and entertaining.
The layout is traditional and practical: living/dining rooms, kitchen, two first-floor bedrooms and a family bathroom. Double glazing was fitted after 2002 and mains services are understood to be connected. The property is offered with no upward chain and would suit a buyer seeking village life with easy access to Shrewsbury, Telford and nearby market towns.
Important practical points: heating is by electric storage heaters and the walls are solid brick with no known insulation, so running costs and upgrade work should be considered. The cottage is modest in size (approx. 625 sq ft) with a single bathroom and limited built-in storage; some modernisation would improve comfort and energy efficiency. Freehold tenure and council tax banding are stated but should be verified during pre-contract enquiries.
