Introduction

Property Description

A striking Edwardian country home; like every country home you enter through the side door and into a small inner lobby ideal for wet dogs and boots, although the dogs can be also brought in through the utility door. Open a further door from the inner lobby and enter a wide and bright entrance hall, with high ceilings and skirtings in keeping with the era. On the right is a shower room, which doubles as the guest cloakroom. The first of the reception rooms is located on the left as you enter the hallway and has large sash windows overlooking the gardens and castle, with extensive rooftop views. This really light drawing room has a wood burning stove, picture rails and original cornicing, together with a further door opening into an alternative reception room with bespoke shelving units. This is also a very light and once again has windows to the front aspect overlooking the gardens, and the far-reaching countryside views. There is a door to the main hallway, with herringbone parquet flooring and stairs to the first floor, as well as stairs to a large cellar an ideal place for the wine you will drink with friends, whilst sitting in the garden and looking at Ludlow Castle lit up at night. Across the hall is the formal dining room, once again with large sash windows overlooking the gardens. The Dining room has a typical 1950 s style fireplace. Go back into the main hall and at the end of the hallway is the Morning room, which is currently used as a breakfast room as it is adjacent to the kitchen and has the same co-ordinating bookshelves with storage beneath and large cupboard to the right. The boiler is housed in the Morning room hidden in a cupboard, with storage beneath. The kitchen has a wealth of floor and wall units, included in which there is a plate rack and display cupboards, all installed taking into consideration the era of the property. There is a large butcher s style central island and the flooring is the original quarry tiled flooring. The sink overlooks the rear courtyard and garaging. From the kitchen there is a useful utility room which currently houses the dishwasher; the flooring continues through the utility room. A door to the rear courtyard is also located in the utility room. From the Morning room there is access to a useful sun room/living room for the annexe. This has two doors, one to the garaging and the other to a small side courtyard, which could become the patio garden to the annexe. From this sun room there is a door to the annexe bedroom and shower room, ideal for multi-generational living, or visitors. It would also double as a useful home office with reception room, thereby not interfering with the main family home. Take the stairs to the first floor and there you will find five bedrooms all of generous proportions. The master bedroom has its own en-suite and there are two bathrooms side by side. It would be really easy to change the living space to allow there to be four bedrooms each having its own bathroom.

Gardens

The gardens are to the front and side of the property and offer far-reaching views including a wonderful view of the infamous Ludlow Castle, Arranged with an area of lawn and an ornamental pond. The annexe has a private patio with raised beds. The property is set with 0.5 of an acre.
