A rare Grade II* listed farmhouse set in about 13 acres, offering an extensive country estate with genuine development potential. The main house (approx. 4,800 sq ft) retains period character across four bedrooms and four reception rooms but requires comprehensive refurbishment, including essential roof works. That scope makes this a suitable project for a restoration specialist, developer or investor prepared for listed‑building constraints.
The estate includes nearly 5,000 sq ft of barn outbuildings with good conversion potential, subject to planning consent, plus four former chicken sheds totaling roughly 56,392 sq ft. These large agricultural structures could suit storage, commercial uses or redevelopment opportunities, again subject to permissions, and therefore appeal to buyers seeking value‑add projects on a substantial plot.
Practical considerations are clear: the property will be sold by unconditional auction with a buyers’ premium and a 28‑day completion requirement, and the house needs significant renovation and roof repairs. Broadband speeds are very slow and council tax is described as quite expensive. Heating is by oil boiler with underfloor elements, and the listed status will require specialist oversight and listed‑building consents for many works.
Set in a sought‑after rural hamlet with good road links to Newport and Telford, the site offers privacy, large gardens (including former moat remains) and parkland potential for equestrian or leisure uses. No flood risk is recorded. This is a high‑potential, high‑commitment opportunity for buyers who can manage listed‑building requirements and renovation costs, and who welcome the scale and seclusion of a large Shropshire estate.
