Summary - Grange Farm, Newtown, Wem, SHREWSBURY SY4 5NU
Gated driveway with parking for several vehicles
This striking detached country house, recently and extensively renovated, sits on a generous gated plot of approximately one-third acre bordering open farmland. The ground floor is arranged for contemporary family living: a large open-plan living/dining/kitchen with bi-fold doors onto a paved sun terrace, three further reception rooms (one used as a home office) and useful utility and cloakroom facilities. Upstairs offers a principal bedroom with en suite plus three double bedrooms and a family bathroom — flexible space for family life or working from home.
Energy upgrades are highlighted, with an air-source heat pump fitted and the seller stating high energy insulation. Buyers should note records show the building is a pre-1900 solid brick construction; external details suggest glazing is double but wall insulation dates are unclear and may require verification. The property’s EPC is C.
Practical advantages include a gated gravel driveway with ample parking, a recently installed sewage plant (2024) and very large, well-screened gardens with mature trees. Drawbacks that matter for budgeting and due diligence: broadband speeds are reported as very slow, flood risk is medium, and there is some ambiguity about the heating/fuel setup (air-source heat pump reported alongside oil-fired boiler/radiators). Prospective buyers should verify heating details, insulation specification and council tax banding during pre-contract enquiries.
Located on the edge of a popular village with an outstanding primary school and quick road access to Wem (rail links to Shrewsbury, Crewe and London), this home suits families seeking rural space with modern living standards. The recently renovated interior and large plot offer immediate move-in comfort and long-term potential, provided buyers allow for connectivity and any further fabric or services checks identified in surveys.
