Cleobury Mortimer is a highly desirable market town which is mid way between the historic market town of Ludlow to the west and Bewdley/Kidderminster to the East. The property is within easy walking distance to a range of local amenities including a medical practice, pharmacy, dentists, both Primary and High Schools and early year’s nursery, a small supermarket and fuel station as well as a range of independent shops, popular pubs and restaurants. Cleobury Mortimer is conveniently positioned for good access to further areas such as Shrewsbury, Worcester and the Central Midlands areas.

Almost every room has oak feature beams to the walls and ceilings, yet the house has been adapted and compromises of cavity wall insulation and double glazed or secondary casement double glazing units to the windows. The house has a full oil fired central heating system throughout designed across multiple zones for convenience with individual thermostat controls, with a pressurised and unvented pumped hot water system.The ground floor accommodation is spacious with the front entrance door leading into a generous reception hallway with feature beams to the walls and ceiling and original restored oak flooring, a wooden staircase then rising to the first floor. A door to your right gives access to the large dining room, which is the heart of the home. There are windows to front and rear elevations and an original inglenook fireplace with exposed stonework and tiled hearth, housing a multifuel stove.

Through the dining room then into a rear lobby you enter the generous kitchen which has been recently modernised and boasts a contemporary range of base and wall units, integrated appliances include oven and hob with extractor over. To the other end is a useful utility room with space for appliances, storage and sink, as well as access to the garage. From the lobby there is access to the downstairs cloakroom/WC; with a door then leading to the outside right hand side of the property and access to the front wooden garage doors and front side parking for one vehicle and the driveway access to the rear, finally a door that leads into the garden area at the rear.

To the other end of the home are three further reception rooms. The living room spans the length of the property, features including exposed stone wall and timbers, double aspect windows front and rear and fireplace with modern feature stove in situ. The garden room is a lovely bright space with fully fitted blinds and double doors opening out onto the rear garden. The cellar is accessed from this room, via covered steps and offers a good accessible dry storage area. Off the hall then the study offers versatility in usage, it boasts original oak beams and a feature window seat. This room is currently utilised as a fifth bedroom.

The first floor accommodation which has been recently reconfigured comprises of four bedrooms and two bathrooms. Stairs rise and then split, to your left leads to the spacious master bedroom, a second double bedroom with built in wardrobe and storage spaces. As well as a shower room with tiled floor, wash basin and WC, and then access to a separate spacious storage cupboard.The master bedroom runs the length of the property, with windows to side and elevations, exposed timber beams, wooden floorboards and built in floor to ceiling wardrobes.

To the right side of the landing is a large family bathroom. This has been tastefully finished with ceramic tiled floor with roll top bath, separate shower cubicle, WC and wash hand basin. A further double bedroom with built in wardrobe and then a smaller bedroom with built in units.
All of the bedrooms are of good sizes, complete with period features as you would expect with a property of this era, and have been newly carpeted.

The property is approached via a driveway to a paved parking area at the rear with turning space, and suitable for up 4 vehicles. An electric roller door gives access to the rear of the garage, inside the garage is double length with access into the house utility room, the garage also has a workbench area, storage spaces and oil fired boiler and hot water cylinder; then with stairs rising to the first floor which has multipurpose use, and includes kitchen area and WC.

At the rear of the property is an enclosed terrace that covers the width of the property, a sunny aspect, perfect space to entertain, bordered by stone walls and with pergola over one side. The garden is mainly laid to lawn, bordered by established plants and shrubs and also includes good size storage and potting sheds, a small water pond/pump along with a hexagonal greenhouse. A hedge splits the garden, with the lower half offering raised beds currently used as a vegetable garden, (the current owners keep a small number of chickens also here), with lawn areas connecting to the borders and established bushes and fruit trees, then enclosed by a stone wall boundary.

Note- The previous owners ran a business from the garage building, utilising the downstairs area as a workshop and the upstairs as offices and storage, this had a business rate in the region of £750 per annum from Shropshire Council and meant that the Council tax for the property was based on a smaller area and subsequently was at Band D. With the correct permissions in place, the two story garage could be used as a multitude of businesses, additional/separate living accommodation or for further domestic purposes.

Directions
From Ludlow proceed along the A4117 road towards Kidderminster. Carry on over Clee Hill until you reach Cleobury Mortimer. Carry on through the town, the property can be found on the right hand side shortly after the turning to Simon Evans Close.
