Little Mayhill, Knighton-on-teme, Boraston, Shropshire, WR15

A delightful period countryside home with bags of potential

Situated centrally in its 13.651 acres of land, complemented by plenty of out buildings (some perfect for conversion subject to consent).

This south facing family home enjoys a rural location yet remains accessible to the popular market town of Tenbury Wells.

Nestled in the beautiful Shropshire countryside, offering an unrivalled sense of rural bliss with endless opportunities for walking, riding and country pursuits. More extensive amenities for shopping, leisure and education are available within the nearby market towns of Tenbury Wells and Ludlow.



The area has excellent schools in both the private and public sector. The property falls into the catchment of Burford CofE Primary School, Tenbury High Ormiston Academy and The Lacon Childe School in Cleobury.

The property is entered into via a kitchen and breakfast room with some fitted units, sink with draining board, plumbing for dishwasher, electrical points for cooker and a separate pantry.


A door off the kitchen leads into a useful utility area, where there is a plumbing and ventilation for a tumble dryer and space for a chest freezer. There are double doors which open up to the yard outside. It is next to the downstairs WC which also has the original red quarry tiled floor.


Immediately adjacent to the kitchen and through an archway is the fantastic living room with the original quarry tile and brick flooring and large inglenook fireplace supported by a large Bressemer beam with mantle; set in it is a solid fuel burning stove and to either side there are cupboards. This room has direct access through double doors into the garden and a window, which takes-in the incredible views beyond the paddocks and onto the valley below.


Adjoining the living room is a dining room, where there is a recessed fire with multi-fuel fire and another double glazed window, which absorbs the same view over the gardens below.


A turning and solid oak staircase arrives at the large first floor landing which has wood board flooring, a Velux window and access to the three bedrooms.


Bedroom one is a large double bedroom with ornate fireplace and a window, which provides stunning views. Bedroom two is another double bedroom on the same elevation. Bedroom three is a lovely quirky room to the rear of the property benefiting from a Velux window and utilising the space below eaves height.


Also accessed from the landing is the recently refitted family bathroom with a large bath and shower over, sink, dressing area and a WC.


There is an open staircase with banister rail which climbs steeply to the second floor, where there has been a useful loft conversion creating two attic bedrooms around a landing area with loads of natural light coming through from the Velux windows.


Outside
The property is situated within 13.651 acres of gardens and grounds comprising a nice mixture of level paddocks, orchards and countryside.


The garden has fruitful pear and apple trees; with the fields including two fabulous yielding 100 year old Perry pear trees.


The trees are a year round marker of the beautiful seasons from the huge abundance of blossom through to the many changing colours in autumn and even in winter they offer definition on a misty morning.


Adjacent to the house, there is a tiled roof and wooden slatted barn, which is prime for conversion and integration into the principal dwelling (subject to any necessary consents). The barn is linked by a workshop to yet a further barn, which has a slate and tin roof and is timber clad - also ideal for some form of conversion.


There is a large pole barn and workshop, which requires some re-roofing, but makes an ideal field shelter/stable block if you were to have horses or livestock. A further garage is situated by the side of the property.


The house is set within an incredible part of the countryside with good fencing all round consisting of a top wooden rail and stock fencing below combined with mature hedgerows. There is water running to all the fields.
