Hazler Cr, Church Stretton, SY6 - A large 6 bed Edwardian home with 2/3 bed Annexe

Croft House – a commanding Edwardian home with space, character and serious presence.

With its handsome double-fronted façade, soaring ceilings and light-filled bay windows, Croft House is everything you hope for in a grand period home – and then some. Set across three expansive floors (plus a cellar), the accommodation is vast, beautifully proportioned and rich with original charm.

The first impression is rather grand: a staircase leads you to the front door and entrance porch, beyond which lies one of the home’s most jaw-dropping features – the entrance hall. Framed by tall windows either side of the door and laid with original Minton tiles, this statement hallway sets the tone for what’s to come. Elegant, timeless, and just a little bit indulgent.

To one side, the drawing room: a generous space with a classic open fireplace and a broad bay window overlooking the front aspect. Across the hall, a second reception room – ideal as a formal dining room – also features a bay window and a second fireplace, as well as dual-aspect windows so light floods in throughout the day.

The rear of the house continues to impress. A charming breakfast room, complete with a red brick chimney breast and wood-burning stove, makes for a cosy everyday space. Beyond that, a third reception room – currently used as an additional sitting room – offers even more flexibility for family life or entertaining. It too features a lovely bay window.

The kitchen is a perfect balance of function and style. Contemporary cabinetry, integrated appliances, and a central island make it both sociable and practical – and the French doors open directly onto the patio, inviting the outside in and creating the ideal backdrop for summer barbecues and evening drinks.

Upstairs, the sense of space and elegance continues. On the first floor, three exceptionally large bedrooms each boast their own en-suite bathroom – all thoughtfully fitted with four-piece suites. The principal suite enjoys a convenient “Jack and Jill” layout, accessible from both the bedroom and the landing.

On the top floor, two further double bedrooms, a cosy single room or home office, and an additional bathroom provide yet more space for growing families, guests, hobbies or work.

The Garden – south-facing, sociable and made for making memories.

Step outside and you’ll find yet another standout feature of Croft House – a glorious south-facing garden that’s as practical as it is picturesque.

Bathed in sunlight from morning ‘til evening, this outdoor space is made for good times and great company. At its heart is a large Indian sandstone patio – a fantastic setting for long summer lunches, spontaneous barbecues and maybe even that outdoor kitchen you’ve always dreamed of.

But it’s not just about alfresco dining. This garden offers serious lifestyle appeal.

Head up the steps and you’ll discover the fully insulated garden studio – a substantial brick-built space with tiled flooring (complete with underfloor heating), downlights, and bi-fold doors that open wide onto the garden. Whether it’s a games room, home office, gym or chill-out den, it’s a brilliant bonus space with year-round usability.

And just when you think you’ve seen it all… there’s the garden bar.

Perched in an elevated spot overlooking the house and the Shropshire hills beyond, this timber outbuilding is fully insulated and beautifully finished with laminate flooring, infrared heating, fitted units and a granite worktop. French doors open to reveal glorious views – the perfect setting to sip your favourite tipple and soak in the sunset.

It’s rare to find a garden that ticks so many boxes – sunshine, style and so many spaces to enjoy.

The Cellar – practical, tucked away, and full of potential.

Accessed via a discreet door from the breakfast room, the cellar provides excellent additional space – currently used as a laundry area with handy extra storage. It’s also home to the pressurised Megaflo hot water cylinder and the Worcester Bosch gas-fired central heating boiler, keeping things running efficiently behind the scenes.

Whether you choose to keep it as a functional utility space or have visions of wine racks and vintage collections, it’s another tick on the practicality checklist.



PLANNING PERMISSION GRANTED – future potential already unlocked.

For those dreaming of even more space, here’s something to get excited about: planning permission has already been approved and implemented (with foundations in place) for a substantial rear extension.

Reference: 17/01440/FUL – Erection of single storey and first floor extension to rear.

This gives future owners the rare opportunity to expand with confidence – the hard part’s already done. The approved plans would enhance the home’s already generous footprint, creating even more living space to enjoy.

THE ANNEXE – Luxurious, light-filled and incredibly versatile.

Whether you’re seeking the perfect space for multi-generational living, a premium holiday let, or an exceptional guest retreat – this annexe delivers in style.

Built to an exacting standard just a few years ago with very little use since, it’s a shining example of thoughtful design and quality craftsmanship. From the moment you step inside, it impresses.

The entrance hall isn’t just a way in – it’s a statement of intent. Full-height aluminium-framed glazing draws in the natural light, illuminating the beautiful honey-toned oak flooring that flows throughout the property and instantly sets the tone for the high-quality finishes to come.

The ground floor is home to two generous double bedrooms, both with sleek, modern en-suite shower rooms. One has patio doors opening onto a private seating area – ideal for a quiet morning coffee. There’s also a third single bedroom or study, along with a separate WC for added convenience.

An oak and glass staircase leads you to the star of the show – the stunning open-plan first floor.

Here, beneath a vaulted ceiling, you’ll find a showstopping kitchen with sleek modern units, luxurious granite worktops and some bespoke oak cabinetry. Integrated appliances include Neff double ovens, an induction hob, Hotpoint fridge/freezer, dishwasher and a built-in wine cooler – naturally. The central island adds even more storage and provides the perfect place to dine, entertain or simply enjoy the space.

The living area is bright and airy, thanks to its lofted ceiling and wide sliding doors that open onto a covered and heated balcony – creating the ultimate spot for year-round relaxation with a view.

This is no ordinary annexe – it’s a fully fledged home in its own right, cleverly designed and finished with care. A rare and valuable addition to an already exceptional property.

A Little Bit About the Location – Welcome to Church Stretton

Tucked into a valley beneath the heather-strewn slopes of the Long Mynd, Church Stretton is one of Shropshire’s most treasured spots. A historic market town set in the heart of the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it’s the only town located within this protected landscape – and it wears that honour well.

Known as the gateway to the hills, this is a paradise for walkers, cyclists, and anyone craving space, scenery and soul. From the tumbling trails of Carding Mill Valley to ancient rock formations and panoramic ridgelines, the surrounding countryside is nothing short of spectacular.

But there’s just as much to love within the town itself. With its strong independent spirit, you won’t find many high street chains here – instead, you’ll discover characterful shops, cosy cafés, artisan food, and a welcoming community that gives the town its warmth and charm.

Hazler Crescent enjoys a prime position on the fringes of the town centre – close enough to stroll to everything, but just far enough to enjoy a little peace and privacy. The current owners have loved living here for 20 years – and it’s easy to see why. With its leafy setting and elevated views, it’s one of Church Stretton’s most quietly desirable addresses.

Please be sure to review the floor plans (incl. dimensions) and photos and then get in touch with Greg Sloane Residential, Estate Agents in Shrewsbury to discuss further or to arrange a viewing.
