Description
Evenwood Cottage is a delightful detached home, set in an idyllic countryside location, six miles from Much Wenlock. The property features attractive elevations of stone and white render, while inside there is well-presented accommodation, which retains much of its original period character.
There are four reception rooms on the ground floor, including a living room with its handsome original inglenook fireplace, which has been fitted with a woodburning stove. There is also a generous sitting room with a cast-iron fireplace and French doors opening onto the gardens, while a hallway connects to what was previously a separate outbuilding but has been combined with the main home to provide a large office space or further reception room with exposed timber beams and a logburner. Additionally, the ground floor has a further office for home working and a well-equipped kitchen with a range cooker and space for a dining table.
Upstairs there are four well-presented bedrooms, three of which are doubles of similar proportions, while one is ideal for use as a dressing room, nursery or study. The principal bedroom benefits from an en suite shower room, while the first floor also has a family bathroom.
Outside
The property is located approximately 100 yards back from the road along a gravelled driveway, which leads to parking in front of the house, as well as a further parking area to the side and provides access to the stables and storage block.
