Bishops Castle offers an excellent range of local services with doctors and dental surgeries, an eclectic mix of shops, mini-marts, pubs, schools and cafes. The larger towns of Shrewsbury and Ludlow are within comfortable driving distance and provide access to a complete range of facilities and the national rail and road network.
The House - Retaining many period features and having been recently extended and reglazed, the spacious accommodation is well laid out. As an entrance, the Dutch style porch with its oak seats, is pretty impressive, yet this continues into the delightful wood panelled hall.

The study leads into the charming garden room overlooking the private rear terrace and rear garden. The spacious kitchen/breakfast room has it Aga range and also looks out onto the rear gardens. Onwards past the larder and utility is the recently converted one bedroom annex with wet room and living/ kitchen with its own separate access. Two cloaks/WC complete the ground floor. Whilst to the first floor, off the handsome landing, are family bathroom, the master bedroom with en-suite and four further bedrooms, all enjoying views over the garden and countryside.
