Situation: Ashford Court Farm is located within the sought-after village of Ashford Carbonel approximately four miles from Ludlow. The village is enormously popular with a primary school within walking distance of the property, a church and an active village hall with a bar and a village green offering many recreational and leisure opportunities for all ages.
Nearby, Ludlow is a thriving market town and an architectural gem with a lively community feel, busy with events and festivals throughout the year. It has an international reputation for food and drink with many excellent restaurants and cafes, enhanced by the area's abundance of good quality producers.
The county town of Shrewsbury lies to the north and Hereford is to the south. Birmingham and the West Midlands are an approximate one hour commute with many rail links. There are excellent state and independent schools in the area including Moor Park, Ludlow and Shrewsbury School. Ludlow Golf Club and Ludlow National Hunt racecourse are within approximately a ten minute drive.

Ashford Court Farm is a four bedroom country property with a double garage and various outbuildings, all set within approximately five acres of pasture and gardens.
On the ground floor, there is a boot room / utility / entrance porch, a downstairs WC, an open-plan kitchen / breakfast room and a living room with a log burner which leads to a second sitting / dining room. On the first floor there are three double bedrooms, one single and a family bathroom with walk-in airing cupboard. Due to the size and layout of the rooms (with partial conversion) Ashford Court Farm could easily be utilised as a family home with auxiliary accommodation for guests, holiday lets or to suit multi-generational family living (subject to planning permission). All of the reception rooms and the bedrooms offer superb views across the land, river and landscape beyond.

Outside, to the rear of the property, sits a large Dutch barn and further outbuildings, ideal for anyone looking to continue utilising the property as a smallholding.
