Set on an impressive, generous plot with panoramic countryside views, this four-bedroom detached house offers spacious family living and strong potential. Built in 1939 and only ever owned twice, the property combines mid-century character—bay windows, a conservatory and two reception rooms—with practical features such as a large double garage, utility room and gas central heating. NO UPWARD CHAIN makes it straightforward to move quickly.
The accommodation is well planned with a welcoming entrance hall, living room, separate sitting room leading to the conservatory, kitchen, cloakroom and a sizable utility. Upstairs are four bedrooms and a main shower room. At about 1,914 sq ft the house sits comfortably on a large wrap-around garden that backs onto open fields, ideal for family outdoor space and sheltered privacy.
The house will suit buyers wanting a substantial family home in a small-town fringe location with good local amenities and regular bus links to Shrewsbury. It also offers clear scope for cosmetic modernisation and layout improvements to create contemporary living spaces while retaining period features.
Notable drawbacks are factual: some interiors show dated decor and may require updating, there is a single shower room for four bedrooms, and there are signs of possible damp in the living room that should be professionally inspected. Council tax is above average. These points should be weighed against the plot size, garage and countryside aspect when considering longer-term value.
