Description

A beautifully appointed link detached barn conversion occupying an idyllic rural setting with approximately two acres of gardens and paddock, enjoying exceptional countryside views and an outstanding range of outbuildings.

Thoughtfully arranged over split levels, the accommodation flows effortlessly and is filled with natural light. A welcoming reception porch leads into the entrance hall, where a contemporary shower room serves the versatile fourth bedroom, offering ideal accommodation for guests, dependent relatives or those seeking a home office.

A short flight of steps rises to the impressive vaulted sitting and dining room, undoubtedly the heart of the home. Three large Velux roof windows flood the room with daylight, while the generous proportions create a wonderful space for both relaxed family living and entertaining. Adjoining this is the beautifully appointed kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with an excellent range of matching cabinetry and ample preparation space, providing the perfect setting for everyday living.
Further steps lead to the rear hallway with direct access to the gardens. Here, three double bedrooms are arranged, including a principal suite complete with a dedicated dressing room and en-suite bathroom, creating a peaceful and private retreat.

Outside continues to impress. A driveway leads to a parking area before taking you to an excellent detached barn incorporating three generous bays together with a loft storage area, offering flexibility for workshop space, vehicle storage, hobbies or potential future uses, subject to any necessary consents. Complementing the barn is a garage with light and power together with a separate carport.

The gardens have been lovingly landscaped to create a series of attractive outdoor spaces. the lawn is complemented by mature trees, colourful shrub borders and well-stocked raised beds, while an extensive patio provides the perfect setting for outdoor entertaining and summer dining. A charming summer house and garden shed add further practicality and enjoyment. Beyond the gardens, a gate opens into the adjoining grass paddock, ideal for those with equestrian interests, small livestock or anyone wishing to embrace a true country lifestyle.

The setting is one of Jackdaws’ greatest assets. Whitcott Keysett is a pretty rural hamlet surrounded by some of South Shropshire’s finest countryside. The nearby historic market town of Clun, with its famous Norman castle, offers everyday amenities and a thriving community, while the popular market town of Bishop’s Castle provides an excellent selection of independent shops, cafés, traditional inns, schools and cultural events. The surrounding hills, footpaths and bridleways offer exceptional opportunities for walking, riding and enjoying the natural beauty of the area.
