Four-bedroom sanctuary, with flexible space

Tranquillity and charm are obvious assets of Manor Farm Cottage. This pretty stone 4 bedroom house is found up a drive through woodland to reveal views over the Shropshire Hills National Landscape. This sanctuary location is Abdon, just over 3 miles from Ditton Priors, 10 from Ludlow and Bridgnorth only one mile more.

Set in 1/2 acre of gardens with stream and ample parking. Flexible accommodation comprises of kitchen diner, with French doors to patio. There is also access to the generous 32 square metre gym, formerly a double garage which could be remodelled for any required purpose and incorporated with the room above. To the opposite end of the kitchen a large pantry provides for “out of sight” storage.

A conservatory and near 9 metre long lounge/dining room offer a variety of rooms for relaxation, according to time of day and mood. An inner hall and cloakroom with shower complete the ground floor, save a workshop attached to the gym.

Stairs rise from the central hall to reveal 3 bedrooms, two with their own WC’s, plus a family bathroom. A second staircase out of the kitchen rises to a generous room currently used as an office, however it could be reconfigured to provide a guest suite, alternatively combined with the space below to offer business, or generational space. Outside a pretty studio, offers further flexibility beyond its current use.

Balfours associate partner, Cathrine Barre, comments: “This is one of those rare tucked away and quite idyllically located properties. A range of mature trees and shrubs, plus a stream running along the border of the gardens and the crowning glory stunning views of Brown Clee, make viewing worthwhile. We are marketing Manor Farm Cottage with a guide price of £690,000,” she concludes.
