Location
Now SSTC- A distinguished country house with 2.29 acres of land, equestrian appeal and exceptional scope, set on the fringe of Nash, about 8 miles from Ludlow.
Occupying a wonderfully private position on the edge of the sought-after Shropshire hamlet of Nash, this attractive country residence offers a rare combination of character, space and opportunity set in 2.29 acres of land. Surrounded by its own gardens and paddocks extending to approximately two acres, the property enjoys a peaceful rural setting with far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside, creating an idyllic environment for family life, leisure pursuits or an elegant country retreat.
Approached through its attractive grounds, the house immediately conveys a sense of warmth and permanence. It is a home that has been lovingly enjoyed and carefully maintained, offering comfortable accommodation from day one, whilst presenting exciting possibilities for future enhancement. Whether a purchaser is seeking a charming family home with equestrian appeal or a property capable of evolving into a substantial country estate, the opportunity on offer is exceptional.
Adding further appeal, full planning permission (Ref: 23/03420/FUL) has been granted for a significant extension together with a detached indoor swimming pool complex. Once completed, the approved scheme has the potential to transform the property into an impressive six or seven-bedroom country residence with outstanding leisure facilities, creating a home of considerable scale and prestige whilst remaining sympathetic to the character of the existing house.
Lifestyle & Setting
The setting is one of the property's most attractive features. Nestled amidst rolling Shropshire countryside, the house enjoys a wonderful sense of privacy and seclusion, yet remains conveniently accessible to the amenities and attractions of nearby Ludlow and Tenbury Wells.
The surrounding landscape provides a beautiful backdrop throughout the seasons. Mature hedgerows, open paddocks and established trees combine to create a quintessentially English country setting, offering a lifestyle increasingly difficult to find. Mornings can begin with walks across your own land, whilst evenings are perfectly suited to relaxing outdoors and enjoying uninterrupted views of the changing countryside.
The grounds seamlessly connect the house with its natural surroundings, creating a wonderful sense of space and freedom. The paddocks are ideal for equestrian use or simply for those wishing to enjoy a more rural way of life, while the gardens provide numerous areas for entertaining, family activities and peaceful relaxation. Whether hosting summer gatherings on the lawn, pursuing outdoor hobbies or simply appreciating the tranquillity, the property offers a lifestyle that is both versatile and deeply rewarding.
The House
Internally, the house is beautifully proportioned and thoughtfully arranged, blending character and practicality. The layout has been designed to provide both excellent flow for entertaining and comfortable separation for everyday family life.
A welcoming reception hall creates an inviting first impression and provides access to the principal reception rooms. The generous sitting room is a wonderfully light-filled space, ideal for both formal entertaining and relaxed family evenings, while a separate dining room offers an elegant setting for gatherings and celebrations.
To the rear of the house, the kitchen serves as the heart of the home, enjoying direct access to the gardens and cellar. It is a sociable and practical space, perfectly positioned within the approved plans to become part of an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and family area.
A further reception room offers valuable flexibility and can be adapted to suit a variety of needs, whether as a cosy snug, home office, playroom or secondary sitting room. This adaptability ensures the house can evolve effortlessly alongside changing family requirements.
Arranged over the first and second floors are four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly spacious and enjoys delightful views over the surrounding grounds. The additional bedrooms are equally appealing, each benefiting from attractive outlooks across the gardens and countryside beyond.
A beautifully appointed family bathroom combines classic styling with modern convenience, while the upper floor provides a particularly characterful bedroom suite featuring exposed timbers and its own facilities, creating a charming guest suite or private retreat.
In its current form, the property offers comfortable and highly enjoyable accommodation with considerable charm, whilst allowing a future owner the opportunity to personalise and enhance the house at their own pace.
