This substantial detached cottage in Ladywood, Ironbridge, presents a unique opportunity for investors and families alike. Currently operating as a guest house, this property boasts significant potential for income generation or personal use with space for extended family. The all-inclusive offering includes additional land to the rear, enhancing the property's value and potential uses.
Set on approximately 2.56 acres, the outdoor space includes well-maintained gardens and ample parking facilities. The existing guest accommodation is in good condition, allowing immediate income generation, while the living spaces present renovation opportunities that could be transformed into additional guest rooms (subject to necessary permissions).
The ground floor features three reception rooms, including a bay-windowed sitting area perfect for a guest lounge and a dining room suited for serving multiple guests. The upper level contains four guest rooms—three with en-suites and one twin room served by a shared bathroom—along with a reception area ideal for breakfast or relaxation.
A kitchen located on the lower level provides natural light and functionality for daily operations. While the property requires some renovations throughout to reach its full potential, it allows flexibility in reconfiguration to match your investment strategies or lifestyle needs.
Externally, the expansive grounds offer various possibilities: continued operation as a guest house, conversion into private residence or alternative commercial ventures like restaurants or public houses (subject to planning approval). A track leads from the parking area up to fields surrounded by trees—ideal for grazing livestock or establishing glamping accommodations; previous usage for camping parties adds to its charm.
Prospective buyers should consider seeking planning advice given the strict regulations due to its location within the UNESCO World Heritage site of Ironbridge Gorge. This property not only offers a solid return on investment but also embodies an exciting project ripe for creative renovation and growth.
