An appealing rural residence offering comfort, charm and versatility, with land and various outbuildings, positioned in a tranquil setting with scenic vistas over the landscape to the Shropshire hills

The property Upper Banks is an attractive country cottage with interiors offering a pleasing mix of modernity and character detail. The enhanced layout allows flexibility, with the potential to provide a home perfectly suited to families, home-working or a welcoming environment for guests and dependent relatives. Decorative glazed panels frame the entrance doorway, and the bright hallway has tiled flooring which extend into the kitchen/dining room providing practicality and visual cohesion. With exposed brickwork and the comforting warmth of a range stove, the kitchen and adjoining dining space offer a sociable heart to this charming home. Wooden cabinetry is topped by wood work surfaces, and a useful utility room is adjacent. The two reception rooms both have French doors affording a seamless link to the garden. Centred around a vintage fireplace, the drawing room connects to a family room, beyond which one of the four bedrooms and a cloakroom are tucked-away presenting annexe potential. The upper-level rooms comprise three bedrooms and a generously proportioned, stylishly family bathroom. A single-storey rear extension, with open rafters and skylight windows creates an excellent multi-use room. This light-filled space would provide the ideal working environment or further accommodation.

This property has 7.79 acres of land.

Mature trees and shrubs afford privacy to the gardens which lie to the front and rear and there are various spots to sit and enjoy the al fresco setting. Within the extensive grounds, there is an area for vegetable cultivation and pathways offer a meander through delightful gardens to a naturalistic area where a large pond provides a magnet to wildlife.
