THE Coombes is a unique property in the true sense of the word.

Hidden away within beautiful South Shropshire countryside it’s a delightful and characterful thatched cottage with an abundance of appealing features together with a separate more recently built detached two/three bedroom cottage both set within about 3.3 acres of the most wonderfully landscaped gardens.

It’s thought the extended thatched cottage dates back 400 years to around 1640 and is grade II listed.

There are exposed wall and ceiling timbers and the impressive sitting/dining room has an inglenook fireplace with a wood burning stove, as well as a large leaded light box window with window seat overlooking the gardens.

From the kitchen an inner hall leads to a utility room and to the ground floor bathroom. On the first floor there is an attractive double bedroom, walk in wardrobe and WC and wash basin. The separate cottage was built during the winter of 1994/95. On the ground floor there is an open plan sitting room/kitchen. There are two staircases, one which leads into a spacious first floor bedroom/studio which could easily be divided into two large rooms. Off this bedroom there is an en suite shower/WC. The second staircase leads to a further bedroom with an en suite.

The fabulous gardens are a haven for wildlife. There are numerous flower beds and many different types of trees. Several wooden bridges cross over the little stream which meanders through the gardens and there are four fish pools and a timber summerhouse.
