Description
This three-bedroom detached stone house is set in the hamlet of Whitcott Keysett, around 2.2 miles from Clun. The listing describes it as requiring modernisation and notes its traditional features, including exposed stonework and timber beams, two reception rooms with wood-burning stoves, and an inglenook fireplace. The kitchen has wall and base units, with a utility room beyond that houses the oil-fired boiler and has external access.
Upstairs are three bedrooms and a bathroom with a bath and overhead shower. The house is approached by a shared tarmac drive and has a grassed parking area, a large shed and a further storage building. A lawned garden with fruit trees and stone boundaries sits to the front, while a side workshop with a concrete floor, inspection pit and electricity is stated to require repair. The property is in the Clun Valley, with local services in Clun and broader facilities in Craven Arms, Ludlow and Bishops Castle.

Grade BGood opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £280,000, this detached stone house is priced at £195/sq ft against a local average of £275/sq ft, giving buyers a notably cheaper entry point. Its exposed stonework, beams and fireplaces bring character to a substantial renovation project, while the large garden and multiple outbuildings add scope beyond the main house. The photographed interiors have bare concrete floors in several ground-floor rooms, worn boards upstairs and staining or discolouration in several rooms; the kitchen and bathroom also offer clear opportunities to rework the finishes. The workshop is stated to require repair, and the roof looks weathered, though the photos do not establish a major failure.
Key opportunities
- Rework the reception spaces around the existing exposed stone, timber beams, inglenook and fireplaces to bring out the house’s traditional character.
- Modernise the dated kitchen and bathroom, and choose new floor finishes to suit the house’s stone-and-timber features.
- Make use of the substantial garden, fruit trees and multiple outbuildings, including the workshop once repaired.
Key risks
- Bare concrete floors in several ground-floor rooms, worn upstairs boards and visible staining or discolouration in several rooms point to a substantial £50,000–£85,000 works programme, rather than a cosmetic refresh.
- The workshop requires repair, and the condition of the weathered roof covering and outbuildings should be checked.
