Set on an elevated plot on the slopes of Clee Hill, this detached three-bedroom bungalow delivers spacious single-storey living with commanding views over Shropshire countryside. The sitting room opens to a bright conservatory, and a separate dining room plus study give flexibility for family life and home working. The kitchen includes an Aga and a utility room, while the principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite.
Outside, the property sits within a very large, mature plot with terraced lawns, gravelled seating areas and multiple vantage points to enjoy the outlooks. A sweeping paved driveway provides generous parking and turning space. The detached double garage with carport includes power, lighting, a WC and excellent boarded storage above — a strong practical asset for vehicles, hobbies or workshop use.
Practical considerations are straightforward: heating is oil-fired via a boiler and radiators and broadband speeds are slow in this rural location. The house dates from before 1900 and the granite/whinstone walls are assumed uninsulated, so buyers should allow for potential energy-efficiency improvements and possible internal modernisation. Council tax is noted as expensive relative to banding.
This home will appeal to buyers seeking single-storey living with expansive gardens and long-range views — families, downsizers or anyone wanting rural privacy within easy reach of Ludlow’s amenities. It offers immediate comfortable accommodation with clear scope to add value through interior refurbishment and landscaping.
