A handsome stone-built cottage set in about 1.67 acres on the outskirts of Minsterley, this three-bedroom detached home blends period character with practical living spaces. The principal reception room features exposed oak beams and a wood-burning stove; a conservatory and separate snug open to patios and far-reaching rural views. The well-equipped kitchen and two reception rooms give flexible family living on the ground floor.
The extensive grounds include a large barn with potential for conversion (subject to necessary permissions), a workshop, garage and generous parking — appealing to buyers seeking ancillary accommodation or a small equestrian/amenity plot. Mature hedging and established trees provide a private setting and multiple outdoor entertaining spots including patios and raised lawns.
Buyers should note some practical considerations: the property has an EPC rating of E, main heating includes oil-fired systems and electric storage heaters with electric underfloor heating in two rooms, and drainage is to a septic tank. The workshop roof may contain asbestos and the barn conversion will require planning consent. The stone walls are likely uninsulated (as-built), so some retrofit insulation and heating upgrades may be advisable for long-term running-cost savings.
This home will suit buyers wanting a character-filled rural residence with space to develop outbuildings, or investors seeking conversion potential (subject to planning). Its remoter hamlet location offers excellent privacy and fast broadband, while local access to Minsterley and Shrewsbury keeps amenities within reach.
