Aston Munslow, Craven Arms, Shropshire

Located in the idyllic village of Aston Munslow, Holly Cottage is a charming and substantial detached home, offering a seamless blend of traditional styling and modern family living. Set within attractive walled gardens and enjoying far-reaching views of the surrounding countryside, this beautifully presented property features four double bedrooms, two bathrooms, generous reception space and a superb entertainments barn with solar panels. A rare opportunity to acquire a character residence in a sought-after rural setting.

On arrival, the entrance opens the hallway giving access to the integral double garage, cloakroom and principal reception spaces. The hallway leads into a generous central inner hall, which benefits from terracotta tiled flooring, natural light, and a wide staircase ascending to the first floor.

To the right, the kitchen / dining / family room extends the full depth of the property. Designed with both practicality and sociable living in mind, this impressive open-plan room features exposed ceiling beams, inset lighting, and terracotta-style flooring. A feature chimney breast with reclaimed brickwork houses a range cooker, flanked by a traditional plate rack and bespoke units finished with oak worktops. There is ample space for both a dining suite and casual seating, with French doors opening directly onto the rear garden, making this a perfect space for entertaining.

A sliding barn-style door opens into a well-equipped utility room with complementary cabinetry, Belfast sink, space for laundry appliances and a stable door to the garden.

The living room is situated at the front of the property and exudes warmth and character. A large brick inglenook fireplace with oak mantel and wood-burning stove creates a central focal point, while dual-aspect windows frame the manicured gardens.

Also on the ground floor is a stylish shower room, which includes a large walk-in shower with rainfall shower head, contemporary basin, WC, and bidet, all presented in an elegant combination of ceramic tiles and vinyl flooring.

A spacious and naturally lit landing with vaulted ceiling and skylight leads to four generously proportioned double bedrooms, each with exposed pine floorboards and neutral finishes. The principal bedroom enjoys a double aspect and provides ample space for wardrobes and storage.

The family bathroom features a panelled bath with telephone-style mixer taps, pedestal basin and WC, with attractive part-tiled walls and timber panelling to the bath surround, creating a warm and classic feel. The dormer window fills the space with light and offers a view across the rooftops to the hills beyond.

The gardens are a particular feature of Holly Cottage. The rear garden is fully enclosed with a character stone wall and includes a central lawn bordered by richly planted beds and mature shrubs, providing colour and privacy throughout the year.

Adjacent to the house lies a superb logia, featuring open-fronted bays with brick pillars and a tiled roof fitted with solar panels. This versatile space is ideal for covered outdoor dining and has clear potential for conversion into a home office, studio or annexe (STPP). A paved patio, ornamental pond, and climbing roses complete this attractive outdoor setting.

To the front of the property is a double garage with timber doors, and further off-road parking for two vehicles.
