A beautifully presented and extended 17th Century detached house with far-reaching countryside views and versatile outbuildings in the idyllic hamlet of Garmston.

Yew Tree House is a charming and welcoming Grade II listed residence in the heart of the village yet offering privacy and far reaching views. Dating back to 1622 in part and extended in recent years under the supervision of the renowned architect Graham Moss, the house has been sympathetically and extensively restored by the current owner.

The characterful period features are complemented by more recent additions of the highest quality that have resulted in a sensitive restoration adapted for modern day living. These include exposed timbers and stone walls, latch handle internal doors, original fireplaces and bespoke double glazed Douglas Fir windows by reputable local joiners Manley’s.

The extension to the rear has created a superb kitchen and dining area with garden room beyond. This sociable room is the “hub” of the house and provides an extensive space for both everyday living and larger scale entertaining with three sets of french doors leading onto the terrace making it ideal for alfresco living and dining. The kitchen is fitted with traditional farmhouse cabinetry under granite work surfaces, central breakfast island and an AGA. In the original part of the house is an elegant drawing room with log burning stove set into a large ingle nook fireplace and french doors make this a light and airy room. Two steps lead up to a study which could also serve as a snug or play room. A utility room, WC and stairs down to the cellar are accessed off a back lobby.

Two staircases rise to the first floor and coherently link the accommodation. Four double bedrooms are serviced by three bathrooms. Most notable is the principal bedroom with large dressing room, en-suite shower room and a Juliette balcony that maximises the breath taking views towards Wenlock Edge.
