Holly House stands as a distinctive four-bedroom residence, rich in history and offering approximately 2,500 sq ft of living space, complemented by an extensive triple garage and cellar nearing 3,000 sq ft. Originally constructed in the 18th century as a coaching inn, this property has served various purposes throughout its storied life and now presents an inviting family home that retains much of its original character.
Set within a generous 0.4-acre plot, the grounds are uniquely designed to cater to those with an affinity for nature or interests in self-sufficiency. Current features include diverse areas such as a wildlife meadow, orchard, polytunnel, and fruit cage—ideal for gardening enthusiasts or anyone looking to develop their own smallholding.
The substantial outbuildings and triple garage also yield promising avenues for business ventures—subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions. Opportunities abound here; from potential holiday accommodations to a workshop or office space—this property offers flexibility to suit various needs.
Nestled in the vibrant village of Hinstock, this home is not only rich in character but is also conveniently positioned near essential amenities including schools and recreational facilities. Additionally, it boasts excellent transport links to larger towns and cities like Telford and Stafford.
The home itself showcases charming reception rooms adorned with exposed beams, original flooring, and bespoke kitchen cabinetry that speaks to its heritage. The modern additions such as the sun room installed in 2020 enhance the livability while maintaining historical integrity. Despite some improvements already made by previous owners—like new windows and damp-proofing—the potential exists for more extensive renovations which could further enhance this property’s appeal.
With permission previously sought for additional dwellings on-site along with architect-designed plans for an extension that can be revisited by future buyers, the possibilities for expansion are considerable. Furthermore, the existing solar panels contribute to sustainability while reducing energy costs significantly—a practical benefit.
