House For Sale £660,000
Built originally as the home of the headteacher of the adjoining school, this wonderful Victorian home (circa 1874) boasts delightful character features throughout, whilst enjoying modern comforts. Offering high ceilings, arched doorways, feature fireplaces and exposed stone, School House has been lovingly preserved to maintain its heritage.
Large reception rooms create versatile accommodation, making this property suitable for a range of lifestyle requirements. The property has the added benefit of solar water heating, a recently fitted biomass boiler, and a shepherd's hut, providing additional accommodation or studio.
A beautiful timber painted porch with gothic style arch-shaped door provides an impressive welcome, leading into the entrance hall. The main reception rooms flow from the entrance hall; a spacious lounge and dining room each offer a fireplace with log burning stove, ready for a cosy winter's evening. From the dining room, a handy study and period-style conservatory are accessible. From the hallway is a doorway leading down to a cellar.
At the heart of this home is a wonderful country-style kitchen with cream shaker-style units finished with granite work surfaces, two single Bosch cookers, and double Belfast sink. A dining area, separate utility leading to a downstairs shower room, and a useful boot room complement the kitchen. Stable-style door opens on to a stone terrace, perfect for alfresco dining and offering beautiful panoramic views of the impressive garden beyond.
A staircase winds to the first-floor landing, off which are doors leading to a master bedroom, two further double bedrooms and a luxurious bathroom.
To the rear of the property is a detached double garage, with power and lighting and the addition of a separate cloakroom. A manicured lawn stretches either side of the house with white & pink ornamental cherry trees lining the long driveway, leading from a gated entrance. An Indian stone patio provides a sheltered seating area under the shade of an apple tree, and adjacent to this is a greenhouse. There are also further mature cooking and dessert apple, and plum trees.
To the far side of the garden is a wooden 5 bar gate which leads into a wildflower meadow, rabbit-proof vegetable patch and nature pond. Here, a young orchard of plum, pear and dessert apple trees are planted. The meadow provides spectacular views of the Long Mynd and surrounding countryside, providing a serene and tranquil backdrop. A shepherd's hut enjoys views across the meadow from the far side, providing privacy and a peaceful setting. This meadow has separate access from the road.
