Grade II listed timber‑framed cottage — restrictions on alterations and repairs
Peters Cottage is a substantial Grade II timber‑framed country home set within over three acres of mature gardens, paddock and pond. The house combines traditional character—exposed beams, large fireplace and stonework—with generous family spaces: a large kitchen/breakfast room with island, spacious living room with woodburning stove, four bedrooms, study and cellar. Outbuildings include a brick double garage and a Dutch barn offering strong workshop, storage or ancillary accommodation potential.
The plot is a major selling point: a private, tree‑lined drive leads to a broad gravelled forecourt, extensive lawns, patio and a fully enclosed paddock suitable for smallholding or equestrian use. The setting feels secluded yet remains within easy reach of Tenbury Wells and local schools, with good road links to Ludlow, Worcester and the wider motorway network.
Buyers should be aware this is a Grade II listed building, which will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance and upgrades. The property uses oil‑fired heating and a private septic tank, and there is just one family bathroom plus a separate WC on the upper floor. Council tax is band F and therefore relatively expensive. A refundable reservation fee (circa 0.5% of the accepted price for offers under £800,000) is required on offer acceptance and is refundable on exchange under specified conditions.
This home will appeal to families and purchasers seeking a private country holding with scope for hobby farming, equestrian use or flexible use of outbuildings. It rewards buyers who appreciate period detail and who are prepared for listed‑building responsibilities and the running costs of a large rural property.
