Willow Cottage is a thoughtfully extended Grade II listed stone cottage in the centre of Caynham, three miles from Ludlow. The house combines original character — curved stone walls, exposed masonry and a pitched roof — with a bright, contemporary open-plan kitchen and living space. Solar panels and an efficient modern heating system reduce running costs.
The property sits on a large, expertly landscaped plot with mature planting, stone terraces and wide views towards the Clee Hills. A detached garage with power, lighting and rear utility area adds practical space for storage or a workshop. The L-shaped dining kitchen is well equipped with quality appliances and twin doors opening to the garden for easy entertaining.
Accommodation is arranged over two floors with two double bedrooms and two bathrooms. The extension provides generous living space and the stone-built chimney could accommodate a second log burner. Broadband speeds are fast and the location benefits from low crime, good local primary and secondary schools, and direct road and rail links from nearby Ludlow.
Important considerations: the Grade II listing brings restrictions and any external or structural changes will need listed-buildings consent. The house has only two bedrooms, which may limit appeal for larger families. Mobile signal is average and, while the cottage is presented well, future alterations or development will require careful planning due to the listed status.
