Bryn Y Cagley Hall is a striking Grade II listed stone house tucked into Shropshire’s Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Dating from the 1400s, the home blends original features — exposed beams, inglenook fireplaces and sash windows — with practical modern additions such as solar panels and an improved cellar with power and water. The house sits in about 0.57 acres of gardens that include an orchard, decking, wildlife pond, chicken run and a brook-side boundary, offering space for children, gardening and outdoor life.
Internally the layout suits family life: four double bedrooms across three floors, two bathrooms, generous reception rooms and a large farmhouse-style kitchen with pantry and range cooker in a classic inglenook. The extensive cellar provides utility, workshop and storage options and could be reconfigured if one large room is preferred. Character features are a major selling point throughout, providing atmosphere and a strong sense of place.
Buyers should note important constraints: the Grade II listing will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance or extension projects. Broadband speeds are very slow in this remoter hamlet, which could affect home working despite excellent mobile signal. There is a medium flooding risk to be considered for insurance and garden use. Council tax band is expensive. These factors should be weighed against the property’s scale, setting and low local crime.
This property will appeal to families or buyers seeking a large, character-filled rural home with garden and outdoor amenities, plus those who value scenery and countryside access. It’s a genuine country retreat that rewards owners who appreciate period detail and who are prepared to manage listed-building obligations and rural utilities.
