Continue out of Shrewsbury towards Bayston Hill on the A49 and follow the road towards Church Stretton until you get to the traffic lights at Crossways. Turn left onto Sandford Avenue (B4371) and follow the road for 3.7 miles before taking a right onto Darby Lane (just after The Plough Inn) and almost immediately left onto Rushbury Road. Follow the road into Rushbury and proceed through the village and just after the last property on the right hand side, there is a right turning along a lane which leads to Lilywood.

Situation - Lilywood is located just outside the beautiful village of Rushbury, which has a church and highly sought after Primary school. The town of Church Stretton is approximately 4 miles away and can claim to be one of the most beautifully situated towns in England and attracts walkers and country lovers from all over the UK. It is a thriving market town and offers excellent shopping facilities including supermarkets, specialist shops and banks. There are churches, excellent education and recreational facilities, together with several pubs and restaurants. There are rail links to Manchester, Birmingham and Cardiff. The A49 provides access to Ludlow and Hereford to the south and Shrewsbury to the north leading to the M54 motorway.

Description - Lilywood is a highly appealing and beautifully positioned detached barn conversion, offering a superb living environment ideally suited to large families and multigenerational living.

The barn retains a wealth of character features, including exposed timbers and brickwork, complemented by sympathetic, high-quality finishes such as flagstone flooring.

A welcoming reception hall, with space for seating and enjoying delightful views over the surrounding grounds, leads through to an impressive sitting room featuring an inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove. The attractive kitchen/dining room is fitted with bespoke units and Delabole slate worktops, alongside a twin-oven oil-fired Aga. There is also a separate utility room, boot room, and a useful guest WC.

From this area, access is gained to an annexe-style wing, providing additional accommodation comprising a living room, kitchen, ground-floor bedroom, and shower room. This space benefits from its own independent access, making it ideal for guests, extended family, or potential income.

To the first floor, there are four principal bedrooms, one of which enjoys an en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by the family bathroom. There is access to a further WC and sink with the potential to be converted to a shower/bathroom, storage and potential bedrooms or office space to suit a purchaser’s individual needs.

Outside - Externally, the property is approached via a private driveway, which extends along both sides of the barn to the rear, where a generous parking area is located, along with a detached oak-framed carport.

The property sits centrally within stunning wraparound lawned gardens, featuring well-stocked and established beds and borders, including productive strawberry beds. A variety of mature trees enhances the setting, and the location is truly idyllic, enjoying far-reaching views over the surrounding countryside.
