Coral Walrond & Luke Alexander at The Agency UK Wyre Forest are privileged to bring to market for the owners for the last 25 years this characterful Four-Bedroom Detached Cottage with Approximately 4.75 Acres and Substantial Workshop.

Occupying a wonderfully private rural position, this attractive detached cottage offers generous four-bedroom accommodation, approximately 4.75 acres of grounds and a substantial detached workshop extending to around 1,247 sq ft. Combining period character, flexible living space and excellent facilities for business, storage or hobby use, the property presents a rare countryside lifestyle opportunity.

The cottage provides approximately 1,736 sq ft of accommodation over two floors. The accommodation is warm, welcoming and filled with traditional detail. A spacious farmhouse-style kitchen features shaker cabinetry, timber worktops and a range-style cooker, with a separate utility room providing additional storage, laundry facilities and a second sink.

There are two comfortable reception areas. The principal sitting room is a bright, sociable space with timber flooring and wide glazed doors opening directly onto the rear terrace and garden. A second reception and dining room offers a more intimate atmosphere, with exposed ceiling beams and a wood-burning stove forming an attractive focal point.

Upstairs are four individually presented bedrooms, each benefiting from the cottage’s distinctive proportions and countryside character. The generous principal bedroom enjoys excellent natural light with the dual aspect windows and ample space for freestanding furniture, while the remaining rooms provide flexible accommodation for family, guests or home working. A family bathroom includes a bath with shower over, wash basin and WC.

Outside, a paved terrace immediately behind the house provides an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. Beyond this lies a substantial lawn, boundary brook, established planting, sheds and a variety of useful garden and smallholding areas.

The total grounds extend to approximately 4.75 acres and comprise predominantly two paddocks, enclosed by mature trees and hedgerows along with the substantial lawned garden with the property with boundary brook, plus a enchanting "secret garden" style woodland area.

The land offers considerable potential for grazing, equestrian use, hobby farming or simply the enjoyment of privacy and open space, subject to any necessary consents.

A particular feature of the property is the substantial detached workshop, extending to approximately 1,247 sq ft. Offering excellent storage and workspace, it could suit a wide variety of commercial, creative or leisure uses, subject to planning and any required permissions.

With a combined approximate gross internal area of just under 3000sqft, including the workshop, this distinctive property offers an increasingly rare combination of characterful family accommodation, extensive land and highly versatile outbuildings in an attractive rural setting.

Location

The property is situated within the attractive south Shropshire countryside, close to the rural village of Kinlet and the historic market town of Cleobury Mortimer.

Kinlet is a peaceful and well-established village surrounded by farmland, woodland and the countryside adjoining the Wyre Forest. At the heart of the community are a parish church, village hall, public house and primary school, while the wider parish includes the hamlets of Button Bridge and Button Oak. The area is particularly well suited to those seeking a quieter rural lifestyle, with an abundance of walking, riding and outdoor recreational opportunities nearby.

The nearby market town of Cleobury Mortimer provides a broader range of everyday amenities and services, including independent shops, cafés, public houses, community facilities and leisure provision. Its attractive historic centre and surrounding countryside make it a popular base for families and commuters requiring access to the larger centres of Bewdley, Kidderminster, Bridgnorth and Ludlow. Cleobury Mortimer Sports and Fitness Centre also provides local health and recreational facilities.

Schooling

Primary education is available locally at Kinlet Church of England Primary School, a small village school serving children of primary age and forming part of the Farlow and Kinlet federation. Cleobury Mortimer also has its own primary school on Love Lane.

Secondary education is available at Lacon Childe School in Cleobury Mortimer, a mixed academy for pupils aged 11 to 16 which serves a broad rural catchment extending into neighbouring Worcestershire. A wider selection of state and independent schools can also be found in the surrounding towns, subject to individual admissions policies and catchment requirements.
