Set within about 2 acres of landscaped grounds, Springhill is a substantial four-bedroom country cottage that balances traditional character with family-scale accommodation. Exposed timbers, stonework and two feature fireplaces give the house a warm, rustic feel while multiple reception rooms and a kitchen/sunroom open directly to extensive lawns, pond and sheltered entertaining spaces. The principal bedroom benefits from built-in storage and a balcony with long garden views.
The plot is a major asset: large lawns, mature specimen trees, a wildlife pond, greenhouse, timber workshop and several outbuildings provide scope for gardening, hobbies or small-scale equestrian / leisure use. A gated gravel drive, generous parking and a detached garage add practicality for family life in a rural setting, with Wyre Forest and local amenities nearby.
Buyers should note a few material points: the house is heated by an oil-fired boiler and relies on private drainage; the original granite/whinstone walls are understood to have no cavity insulation. Double glazing has been fitted (post-2002) but the property may benefit from further energy-efficiency upgrades. There is a single family bathroom and cloakroom WC, which may be limiting for larger households.
This cottage will suit buyers seeking a private rural home with substantial garden and outbuilding space — ideal for families, hobby gardeners or downsizers wanting room for visitors and projects. It offers immediate charm and scope to improve energy performance and internal layout to better match modern family needs.
