Marsh Mill accommodation is over three floors with up to five bedrooms. The bespoke French oak kitchen, with granite worktop is well presented and includes a four oven Aga, built in fridge and dishwasher.

Says agent, Tim Main of Balfours, “The interior of the house is finished to a high specification with three reception rooms, plus a conservatory off the sitting room. All rooms are of a good size with the kitchn spanning in excess of five metres square.”

The reception room has a woodburning stove in an inglenook fireplace. A good sized utility and cloakroom complete the facilities on the ground floor. There are two bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor and a further three bedrooms with second bathroom on the second floor.

Dating back to the 1700s the property exudes character charting the centuries, with exposed stone wall, flagstone floor and sash windows creating individuality. Marsh Mill even has its own ice house - now we just need the summer to warrant it.

Cross country

The mature gardens offer a secluded terrace area leading to an orchard with an array of specimen trees ensuring five a day. The orchard leads through to a lower pasture beside the brook. Paddocks in front of the house have the added bonus of cross country jumps. An additional nine acres incorporating a full cross country course is available by separate negotiation.

The property is just three miles from Church Stretton with a full complement of services including primary and secondary schools. Ludlow and Shrewsbury are 12 and 16 miles respectively and therefore highly commutable for work and an excellent selection of amenities including private schooling.

“This has to be a great location for a family to grow up with the Long Mynd and Wenlock Edge offering open spaces many can only dream of, ideal for activities from mountain biking and riding to gliding, golf, hill running and of course walking.

“We are offering Marsh Mill with a guide price of £550,000 and would recommend viewing,” adds Mr Main. For more information call Tim Main on 01743 353511 or visit www.balfours.co.uk
