Set in its own private plot with open countryside all around, this extended late-18th-century cottage combines period character with surprisingly generous living space. Exposed beams, a feature fireplace and oak flooring give the sitting room strong character; a sun lounge and a ground-floor bathroom provide flexible single-floor living. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms, a shower room and a large timber roof terrace with far-reaching rural views.
Practical features include a fitted breakfast kitchen, a small study/office off the kitchen, utility cupboard, tarmac driveway for several cars and a detached garage. The garden is level and lawned with paved paths and planted borders, and the property sits in a very low-crime, rural hamlet just under four miles from Bridgnorth.
Buyers should note some traditional construction limitations: the stone walls are assumed uninsulated, the double glazing dates from before 2002 and the oil-fired boiler provides heating and hot water. These factors mean running costs and future upgrade work (insulation, possible heating replacement) should be budgeted for.
This cottage will suit buyers seeking a private country home with period charm and ample internal space — ideal for downsizers wanting single-floor options, those needing a home office, or buyers looking to add modern efficiency improvements while retaining character.
