The property is for sale either as a whole or in two lots as follows:
1. As a whole (red & blue)
The Smithy & Barn conversion
Set in approximately 1.47 acres
2. The Smithy (red)
without the Barn conversion
Set in approximately 1.07 acres
3. Barn Conversion (blue)

The House
Located in the picturesque and very desirable hamlet of Garmston, this is a property that requires repairs and updating but holds tremendous potential. The property is a former smithy and still holds original features of the forge in the out buildings. Garmston is well placed in an accessible but rural location, being just 9 miles to the county town of Shrewsbury, and just 4 miles to the M54.
Accommodation
The house requires considerable modernisation to bring it to a modern standard of living. The property has a conservatory entrance hall leading into the kitchen with dated fitted units and a solid fuel 'Rayburn' range cooker. The kitchen leads to a central hall with access into a spacious sitting room and also a dining room/ study. There is access to a store cupboard, and also the cellar.
From the central hall is the staircase leading to the first floor, onto a central landing area. From the landing there is access into the master bedroom, a double bedroom with fantastic panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. There is another double bedroom, a single bedroom and family bathroom.
The house is primarily of brick construction, with some elements of timber frame and a tile roof. The house currently has electric night storage heating
Outbuilding
Adjacent to the house is a brick outbuilding providing useful garden storage and workshop space. This building was formally the smithy and has some fascinating features from its original use to include the forge and infrastructure for lifting heavy materials.
Gardens and land
The house benefits from a stunning large garden to include large lawns, mature borders and feature trees and hedges. Across the road is a paddock to approximately 1 acre with a barn (that benefits from planning permission for residential conversion). This is a productive grass paddock ideal for a pony or sustainable living and growing your own food.
Services
Mains Electricity, Mains Water, Septic Tank Drainage, EPC: G, Council Tax Band: E
Barn conversion
The barn benefits from a planning consent for the change of use of two free standing barns to be connected and changed into residential use with a permission being granted in November 2020, ref: 19/04934/ful. (Community Infrastructure Levey may apply)
The barn is positioned with stunning views across the Shropshire Countryside. The barn is either available to purchase as a part of The Smithy, or separately, with approximately 0.4 acres.
The proposed accommodation briefly comprises a large open plan kitchen and living room, a dining room, two bedrooms and a family bathroom.
There is excellent access from the barn to the towns of Shrewsbury and Telford along with fantastic access to the motorway and rail network.
If the barn conversion is sold separately from the remaining property, there will be a right of way for the occupier of the Smithy into the retained field via the new access.
The Land
The property sits in approximately 1.47 acres of land to include the gardens and paddock. This is a beautiful parcel of land that is perfectly suited to equestrian and small holding use.
