This Grade II listed residence, with origins dating back to the early 17th century, has transitioned through various uses such as a farmhouse and an inn before becoming the family home it is today. The current owners have undertaken significant improvements, including the installation of heritage-approved double glazed windows throughout. Additionally, they have secured both planning permission and listed building consent for a potential two-storey extension, promising to transform this historical property into a modern family haven while preserving its character.
The interior maintains numerous original features like exposed beams and traditional fireplaces. The ground floor encompasses a sizable farmhouse kitchen equipped with an Aga, along with a central reception area and drawing room overlooking the garden. A boot room, utility space, and WC complete this level. Upstairs, three bedrooms can be found – two of which include built-in wardrobes – alongside an expansive landing area leading to a bath/shower room.
On the opposite side of the courtyard lies an attractive period barn (likely curtilage listed), currently serving multiple functions such as office space, storage, and garage facilities. There’s also potential for further conversion of this barn for additional living space or other uses (subject to consents). Additional outbuildings include garages and stables that support the land's agricultural use.
The surrounding grounds are well-established with gardens featuring pathways, lawns, and vegetable beds on a plot extending approximately 2.59 acres. A peaceful stream runs through one boundary of the property.
Situated in Cressage—a desirable West Midlands village—the property enjoys excellent access to local amenities in nearby Shrewsbury and Much Wenlock. The area combines rural charm with convenient transport links to larger urban centers.
Investors looking for renovation opportunities will find substantial potential here not only in enhancing existing structures but also in expanding them to create more extensive living areas, all while respecting the historic significance of this charming home.
