The Old School House is a handsome village house found on the outskirts of Yockleton, only a short distance from the county town of Shrewsbury. The property has an excellent range of accommodation over two floors and has provided a wonderful family home for the current owners. Converted to a thoughtful design, The Old School House retains some fantastic traditional features.

The kitchen breakfast room is beautifully appointed with a range of fitted units and integrated appliances. Across the hallway is a useful utility room and a space for coats and boots. The generous sitting room has a log burning stove and French doors out to a lovely, flagged seating area. A set of double doors lead into the more formal dining room. A snug/home office is found beyond a second bright and airy inner hallway; this room has views over the rear gardens. A WC completes the ground floor accommodation.

The principal bedroom has an en suite bathroom and lovely views toward the village church. A guest bedroom is found at the opposite end of the property with views over the front gardens and open countryside beyond; this room also has an en suite bathroom. There are two further bedrooms, both with high pitched ceilings and feature beams, along with a family bathroom.

Gardens, grounds, and outbuildings
The Old School House has a large tarmacadam driveway with parking for a number of vehicles. A double detached garage stands away from the property on the Northern boundary, with a useful attached garden store and shed.

There are wonderful seating areas on three sides of The Old School House, providing private spaces for al fresco dining. There is a generous flat lawn to the rear bordered by panel fencing.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on May 18, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
