Mermaid Cottage is a mature, extended family home that blends 17th-century character with contemporary living. Exposed oak beams, sash-window proportions and rustic fireplaces give the house warmth and period charm, while a refitted open-plan kitchen/family room with bifold doors creates practical modern space for day-to-day family life and entertaining.
The property sits on a large plot backing directly onto open fields, giving far-reaching rural views and a private, enclosed garden ideal for children and pets. Internally there are four good-sized bedrooms (one en-suite), two reception rooms and a refitted family bathroom — accommodation suited to growing families wanting space and countryside access.
Practical considerations include oil-fired central heating and an EPC rating of D. Broadband speeds in the village are reported as slow, which may affect home working; mobile signal is excellent. The driveway has been re-laid and provides multiple parking spaces alongside a single garage.
The cottage is in the popular village of Prees, close to shops, a medical centre, primary schools and a railway station with links to Whitchurch and Shrewsbury. For buyers seeking a character home with generous outdoor space and village community life, this property offers a rare combination — though buyers should budget for ongoing running costs associated with oil heating and for any energy improvements they may wish to make.
