Summary - SCHOOL HOUSE SCHOOL LANE MONTGOMERY SY15 6QA
4 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Substantial character family house with commanding rural views and large gardens.
- Grade II listed former schoolmaster's house; restrictions on alterations
A handsome Victorian former schoolmaster’s house, this Grade II listed semi-detached home combines period craftsmanship with a sympathetic extension to create flexible family living. High ceilings, deep sash windows, decorative moldings and fireplaces give the principal rooms strong character, while the bespoke kitchen/breakfast room with underfloor heating and French doors frames far-reaching countryside views towards Corndon Hill.
Set on a large, level plot with wrap-around lawns, paved terrace and generous off-street parking, the house is arranged over three floors and provides four bedrooms (one vaulted second-floor room ideal for a teenager), two bathrooms and multiple reception spaces including a study. Practical fittings include an oil-fired central heating system, utility room and ground-floor shower room; the property also retains an open fire and a Coalbrookdale multi-fuel stove for authentic country warmth.
Important practical points are clear: the house is Grade II listed which will restrict changes and can complicate alterations or extensions. The energy rating is low (E, 40) and heating is oil-fired, so running costs may be higher than modern systems. Broadband speeds are average for the area, and council tax is above average.
This home will suit a family seeking character, space and rural views in a convenient village location, and buyers should be prepared for the responsibilities of listed ownership and potential upgrading of heating and energy performance. With tasteful presentation throughout, it offers immediate comfortable living and scope to personalise within the constraints of its listed status.
