Large detached four-bedroom home with extensive countryside views
Double garage, gravel driveway and generous landscaped plot
Roof-mounted solar panels and double glazing (post-2002)
Two bright reception rooms; modern kitchen with breakfast area
Principal bedroom with en suite; family bathroom with underfloor heating
Electric storage heaters; potential higher running costs
Stone walls assumed uninsulated — insulation work may be needed
Very slow broadband and quite expensive council tax
Set in the peaceful village of Aston Munslow, Tranquillity Cottage (White Rose Lodge) is a substantial four-bedroom detached home arranged over multiple floors. Large windows, high ceilings and wide reception rooms create a bright, airy feel and frame extensive views across the Corvedale Valley. The principal bedroom benefits from an en suite; three further bedrooms share a family bathroom with underfloor heating.
The ground floor layout suits family life and entertaining: a modern kitchen/breakfast room with timber beams, two well-proportioned reception rooms (one with a recessed log burner), utility and boot rooms, plus a cloakroom. Bi-fold doors and glazed double doors connect living spaces to a large walled courtyard, terraces and a varied garden with orchard, meadow, greenhouse and kitchen beds. An attached double garage and gravelled driveway provide parking and storage.
Practical positives include roof-mounted solar panels and double glazing fitted since 2002, which help running costs. The setting is very quiet with very low local crime and attractive local schools nearby. The village location offers rural charm while Craven Arms, Church Stretton and Ludlow are within reasonable driving distance for amenities.
Buyers should note a few material points: the house is heated by electric storage heaters, and the stone external walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation, which may affect heating costs. Broadband speeds are very slow in the area, and council tax is described as quite expensive. The property dates from the early 20th century and, while well maintained, may present typical maintenance and renovation opportunities for period fabric and services.
