Summary -
The Olde Cow Shed,Bunbury Road,Alpraham,TARPORLEY,CW6 9GU
CW6 9GU
4 bed 4 bath Detached
Spacious converted barn with annexe and large entertaining kitchen.
Canal-side position with uninterrupted waterside and field views
The Olde Cow Shed is a transformed canal-side barn offering striking waterside living and generous family space. A dramatic, vaulted kitchen-family room with full glazing and an Aga forms the sociable heart of the house, while a large living room with exposed beams and a log-burning stove provides cosy evenings. Three double bedrooms in the main house each have ensuite facilities, and a flexible first-floor landing suits a home office or snug.
Outside, the mature, landscaped garden wraps around the property with raised vegetable beds, fruit trees and uninterrupted views over adjoining fields. The house sits directly on the Shropshire Union Canal and benefits from mooring rights (currently rented to a third party), plus a detached garage and a self-contained timber-clad annexe that has been used successfully for holiday lets.
Practical positives include underfloor heating throughout the ground floor served by an air-source heat pump, double glazing (installed post-2002) and solid-brick walls with internal insulation. The property is freehold, has no recorded flood risk and sits in an affluent, low-crime village with good schools and local amenities nearby.
Notable considerations: council tax is described as quite expensive and the mooring is currently let to a third party, which may limit immediate private use. The property is a conversion of pre-1900 agricultural buildings — while characterful, parts of the fabric and historic construction may need specialist maintenance. Sellers are open to part-exchange offers.
