Situated in the picturesque countryside of Hope near Minsterley, this stone-built cottage, Hope Park House, presents a unique blend of traditional charm and modern potential. Set on approximately 1.67 acres of landscaped gardens, the property is accessed via a private driveway that enhances its secluded feel. Inside, the welcoming entrance hall leads to a spacious lounge characterized by oak beams and dual-aspect windows, providing a warm atmosphere with a wood-burning stove that adds to its rustic allure. The kitchen retains classic oak worktops but might benefit from some updates to elevate its functionality further.
An open archway connects the lounge to a bright conservatory that offers ample natural light and excellent views of the surrounding countryside—an ideal setting for family gatherings or peaceful mornings. There’s also a snug area with French doors leading out to another private patio space. The principal bedroom enjoys western views and abundant light, alongside two additional double bedrooms which provide ample accommodation options.
The outdoor space is bordered by mature hedges for privacy and features multiple patios for outdoor dining.
