Period charm, large gardens and workshop space — scope to modernise and personalise.
Large mature gardens surrounding the house on all sides
This substantial four-bedroom detached house, dating in parts to 1847, sits in a picturesque village setting with large gardens and generous parking. Original period features and high ceilings give the property strong character and scope for contemporary improvement. The brick outbuilding converted to a home bar, plus a summerhouse with plumbing and an attached workshop, add useful ancillary accommodation and hobby space.The house is well placed for walks along the Silkin Way and convenient road links to Telford town centre and the M54, making it suitable for families seeking village character with good access to local amenities. Broadband is reported fast and all mains services are connected.Despite its charm, the property reflects its age: walls are solid brick with no built-in insulation (typical of pre-1900 construction), double glazing was fitted before 2002 and some refurbishment to heating, insulation and decoration should be expected. The area records above-average crime statistics, which buyers may wish to investigate. Overall this home suits buyers seeking a roomy period house with large gardens and outbuildings, and who are prepared to update parts of the fabric and services to modern standards.
