Summary - THE OLD SCHOOL HOUSE YOCKLETON SHREWSBURY SY5 9PQ
4 bed 3 bath Detached
Secluded period house with spacious gardens and versatile living spaces in tranquil countryside.
Victorian detached house with generous rooms and period features
Set on the edge of Yockleton, The Old School House is a substantial Victorian detached property with generous rooms and period charm. The house offers a flexible layout across two floors, including a large sitting room with log stove, formal dining room, snug/home office and a well-appointed kitchen breakfast room. Outside, the large plot includes parking for several cars, a detached double garage, garden store, and private seating areas on three sides.
The first floor provides four bedrooms and three bathrooms, with two en suites and high-pitched ceilings with exposed beams in two rooms. The principal bedroom benefits from pleasant views toward the village church. Mains gas central heating, double glazing and a flagged patio add comfort, while the property’s size and arrangement suit family living or buyers seeking comfortable countryside space.
Notable practical points: drainage is private (not mains), broadband speeds are very slow, and the access ownership is shared with the church and church hall. The house was built before 1900 with solid brick walls likely without modern cavity insulation, so buyers should expect retrofit or energy-efficiency improvement work if required. Council Tax sits at an affordable Band C.
This home will appeal to buyers wanting a handsome period house in a quiet hamlet with easy access to Shrewsbury. It rewards those who value space, privacy and traditional features, and who are prepared for sensible ongoing maintenance or improvement to raise thermal performance and internet connectivity if needed.
