The Drift House

The Drift House, Springfield Barns occupies a most attractive rural position just beyond the village of Baschurch, set amidst rolling Shropshire countryside and enjoys a wonderfully open outlook within a countryside setting. The house enjoys private gardens on three elevations.

The Drift House is a striking and highly individual country home, created through the thoughtful conversion of traditional farm buildings, where characterful features are combined with a stylish and contemporary finish.

The principal house offers an impressive sense of volume and light, with the main reception room enjoying a triple aspect and full-height glazing, with bi-fold doors opening seamlessly onto the central courtyard, creating a superb connection between inside and out. The adjoining kitchen/dining room, with bi-fold barn doors, forms a true focal point of the house, generously proportioned and well equipped, with a central island, integrated appliances and feature fireplace, perfectly suited to both family living and entertaining on a larger scale.

The layout has been carefully considered to offer flexibility, including, a boot room, a ground floor bedroom, which is ideal for guests or extended family, alongside a separate home office and utility room.

Upstairs, a galleried landing provides an impressive sense of arrival to the beautifully appointed principal suite with dressing area and en suite. With a further three well-proportioned bedrooms off the main landing, each benefiting from built-in storage. The family bathroom is finished to a high standard

The Cottages & Outside

A particularly notable feature of Springfield Barns is the inclusion of two beautifully designed holiday cottages which are a highly successful and established business of 8 years, that are purposely designed to give independent access away from the principal house. Both are finished to an excellent specification and offering immediate lifestyle and income potential. Each enjoys open-plan living accommodation with vaulted ceilings and exposed timbers, creating bright and characterful spaces. The Parlour includes a log-burning stove, double bedroom and en suite, while The Dairy offers a well-proportioned studio-style layout, making them ideally suited for short term letting or visiting guests.

Externally, the principal property is arranged around a central courtyard approached through five-bar timber gates, creating a cohesive and highly attractive setting with ample parking. The integrated garage links seamlessly with the main house and cottages, enhancing practicality. A substantial barn, in the rear garden provides excellent additional space, incorporating workshop areas, storage and a covered open-sided entertaining area with a bar, dining and lounge area offering an excellent setting for hosting and outdoor dining.

Beyond the courtyard, a gently sloping field extends to approximately 3 acres, providing further versatility and potential for a range of uses, including equestrian interests, smallholding or amenity land. Overall, Springfield Barns represents a highly versatile and engaging country property, combining quality accommodation, ancillary income potential and an excellent range of outbuildings within a sought-after Shropshire setting.
