Set on about 1 acre in a quiet hamlet, Woodstock is a substantial detached family house with generous reception rooms and established, private gardens. The large living room with a multi‑fuel stove, conservatory and first‑floor balcony make the most of the mature grounds and provide flexible family living. The double garage and gated driveway add convenience for vehicles.
The house offers clear potential: four double bedrooms, well‑proportioned reception spaces and scope to modernise or extend subject to planning. Built before 1900 in solid brick, the property combines character features with straightforward room layouts that suit a growing family wanting countryside space and privacy.
Important practical points: the home requires renovation and updating, and walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation. Heating is oil‑fired with a boiler and radiators; drainage is via a septic tank. Broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is only average — factors to consider for remote working.
This is an attractive opportunity for a buyer seeking a spacious rural family home with large grounds and scope to add value. The setting is peaceful with low crime, good schooling nearby, and easy access to Oswestry and Shrewsbury, but the property is best suited to those prepared to carry out modernisation works.
