Set on a substantial, well-screened plot in sought-after Church Stretton, this imposing five-bedroom detached house offers classic proportions and flexible family living. Ground-floor rooms include a large dining room, bay-windowed living room, conservatory and a generous kitchen with a walk-in pantry — ideal for daily family life and entertaining. The property benefits from extensive off-street parking, a tandem garage and a private rear garden framed by mature hedging with views towards the South Shropshire Hills.
Upstairs the principal bedroom includes an en suite and built-in wardrobes; four further bedrooms, a family bathroom and extensive loft rooms provide scope for extra accommodation (subject to planning consents). The loft’s size and the overall footprint present clear potential for enlargement or reconfiguration to create additional bedrooms, a home office or hobby space.
The house requires some modernisation throughout. Systems, finishes and decor will need updating to contemporary standards and there may be investment needed to convert loft space lawfully. Council tax is described as quite expensive — an ongoing cost for buyers to factor in. Despite these points, the property’s scale, plot and location deliver long-term value for families seeking space and privacy in a very affluent area.
For buyers wanting a roomy family home with large gardens, good local schools and straightforward access to town centre amenities, this offers a rare plot and plenty of future potential. Practical purchasers and renovators will appreciate the opportunity to personalise the layout and specification to suit modern family life.
