Broseley is a popular area with a rich history and much sought after by buyers looking to live in Shropshire. The property is only a short distance from the high street and so is well placed for the local amenities.

Approx 2.3 miles away is the Ironbridge Gorge a world heritage site and location of the first Ironbridge erected in 1779. Other towns nearby include Much Wenlock, Bridgnorth and Shrewsbury.

Telford is only 7.5 miles away which offers an abundance of retail and leisure activities. Here you will also find great transport links with connections to the national Motorway and Rail networks.

We believe the original cottage was constructed in the 17th century and to have been called Hockley Cottage.

The approach is via a gravel drive, opened up by the current owner this leads off Woodhouse Road and has the correct planning consent. The drive gives access to a container for secure storage and caravan with electric hook up for guests.

The accommodation in this historic cottage has an abundance of original features which include beams, exposed brick and stonework. The accommodation has had new flooring throughout the ground floor and includes a lounge with inglenook fireplace and log burner, dining room, modern kitchen and contemporary bathroom both refitted in 2022 and benefit from underfloor heating. Other works carried out include having mains gas connected to the property and installing a new central heating system including a modern combi boiler. Care was also taken to strip, dry out and replaster the walls to the correct standard as to enable the property to breath.

The first floor offers a plethora of features similar to the ground floor including original floorboards. The main bedroom has a log burner to keep it cosy and views over the extensive garden. A guest W/C was added by the current owners and there are two further bedrooms with bedroom three leading off bedroom two. The walls upstairs were stripped and insulated to current modern standards.

Outside the property is a real haven for the modern family with a garden that wraps around the property. An abundance of fruit bushes and trees along with Hazelnut trees will supply even the most enthusiastic cook and baker. The garden is also a real family space with a tree house and firepit to while away those evenings. There are two sheds and to the back of the plot there is a garage with large gated access off Mill Lane which would have provided vehicular access at one time.

The current owners did seek and were granted planning to extend the property to the side and the far end. The side extension would add three bedrooms and a bathroom. The end extension would create along with current kitchen, a larger open plan kitchen diner with double height ceiling. Further details are available on the planning department website.
