This property presents a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a rural retreat with substantial renovation potential. Nestled on approximately 1.25 acres just outside the desirable village of Hinstock, this five-bedroom detached bungalow offers scenic views over the picturesque North Shropshire countryside and is well-suited for both family living and future development.
Originally a smallholding, the property includes expansive gardens and several outbuildings that enhance its versatility. Notably, there is planning permission in place for converting an existing barn into a three-bedroom dwelling with its own entrance. This feature could serve various purposes—whether it’s for multigenerational living, as guest accommodation, or as rental income, making it an appealing prospect for investors.
Inside the bungalow, you'll find ample space with five bedrooms, including a principal suite equipped with an en-suite bathroom. The generous living room benefits from a large picture window that frames the stunning countryside views, while additional communal areas include a dining room and a kitchen that connects to a handy pantry/utility room. The layout also comprises a family bathroom, a separate shower room, and an additional WC for convenience. For those considering further enhancement of the property, the extensive attic space presents potential for conversion (subject to planning permission), adding yet another layer of value.
The outdoor space is equally impressive, featuring beautifully landscaped grounds that include sweeping lawns dotted with mature trees, vibrant flower beds, a productive orchard, and vegetable garden. A brick-built workshop with power is ideal for hobbies or could be transformed into workspace for a home business. Additionally, there’s a compact garage providing secure storage options close to the main residence.
Location-wise, Little Ropes enjoys easy accessibility to key amenities in nearby Newport and Market Drayton—both approximately five miles away—making it an ideal spot for those seeking tranquillity without sacrificing convenience.
Overall, this property stands out not only for its immediate livability but also for its latent development potential in a sought-after area.
