Situation: A rare chance to buy one of the best views in Shropshire. Situated on the top of Lyth Hill, The Rope Walk is of local historic interest and is in one of the most enviable spots with panoramic views over the country park and nature reserve to the Shropshire Hills beyond.
Inside the property, everything is elegantly finished with a modern sleek kitchen which leads out to the rear courtyard, a separate utility room, pantry and store. An exercise room is opposite. Next door is the dining room with a feature fireplace. A sitting room then leads to the larger drawing room, which makes use of the far-reaching views beyond the garden and has a wood burning stove. Next door is a study which would also serve as a fifth bedroom with an adjacent cloakroom. A shower could easily be incorporated.
Upstairs there is a large master suite with a dressing room, further wardrobe space, en suite shower room and a balcony to make the most of the exceptional view. A galleried conservatory next door, again, makes full use of the view beyond. There are three further double bedrooms and a large family bath / shower room.
Outside, there is a generous mature and private garden, perfect for entertaining,and hardstanding for car parking.
A hidden gem lies the other side of the garden hedge - a patch of land just under a acre in size, with two undeveloped buildings both of which have planning permission (14/01384/FUL and 15/03651/FUL) for conversion for residential letting or holiday accommodation. Here is ample parking for numerous cars, a 'secret' garden, soft fruit and vegetable plot and two paddocks. These could either be set up as orchards or wildflower meadows, or used for commercial venture subject to the necessary consents.
The Rope Walk is situated within the sought-after area of Lyth Hill, a short distance to the south of Shrewsbury. Numerous walks are on the doorstep as there are several footpaths that cross Lyth Hill.
Local amenities can be found at Radbrook Green, Longden and Bayston Hill, comprising; supermarket, post offices, doctor's surgeries, pharmacy, convenience stores and public houses.
The historic county town of Shrewsbury offers an extensive range of shopping, museums, theatres and fine dining along with a good selection of state and private schools, including Shrewsbury School and Shrewsbury High School, Packwood Haugh and Prestfelde.
