Description
Set within approximately 3.5 acres of gardens and paddocks, The Plough is a beautifully presented detached country house offering an exceptional rural lifestyle in one of South Shropshire's most picturesque settings.
Positioned in complete privacy on the edge of Oreton, near Cleobury Mortimer, this outstanding four-bedroom home enjoys far-reaching views towards the Brown Clee Hill and benefits from an impressive range of equestrian facilities including a 20m x 40m all-weather manège, stable block, grazing paddocks and direct access onto Catherton Common.
Combining period character with carefully considered modern improvements, the property offers versatile family accommodation, extensive outbuildings, a detached self-contained stone annexe and beautifully landscaped gardens designed to embrace the surrounding countryside.
The welcoming entrance hall leads into a striking oak-framed extension where floor-to-ceiling glazing captures the surrounding landscape and floods the home with natural light.
Retaining its historic roots as a former village public house, the garden room features a bespoke marble-topped bar area, offering a unique nod to its heritage while creating a wonderful social space for family and guests. Bi-fold doors create a seamless connection between house and garden, providing an ideal space for entertaining throughout the seasons.
At the heart of the home lies a handcrafted solid wood kitchen with granite worktops, integrated cabinetry and a generous dining area. A traditional inglenook fireplace houses a Rayburn, providing cooking facilities while enhancing the property's character.
The ground floor benefits from individually zoned underfloor heating throughout, ensuring comfort and efficiency.
Additional accommodation includes a cosy snug with wood-burning stove, a spacious sitting room centred around a contemporary log burner, a dedicated home office overlooking the grounds and a practical utility room with separate external access.
The first floor offers beautifully arranged and versatile accommodation.
The principal bedroom suite is a particular highlight, featuring a private balcony that enjoys breathtaking views across rolling South Shropshire countryside towards the Brown Clee Hill.
A dedicated dressing area with fitted wardrobes complements the luxurious en suite bathroom, complete with freestanding bath, separate shower enclosure and bespoke vanity units.
Three further double bedrooms, including a charming dormer guest suite accessed via its own staircase, provide flexible accommodation for family and visitors.
Exposed oak beams, vaulted ceilings and character features throughout reinforce the home's characterful country appeal.
The Plough sits within approximately 3.5 acres of beautifully maintained gardens and paddocks, carefully designed to maximise privacy and enjoyment of its idyllic rural surroundings. The established gardens include manicured lawns, wildlife pond, elevated Koi pond, summer house with electricity and extensive outdoor lighting.
Stone-paved terraces provide multiple areas for outdoor dining and entertaining, while a sheltered composite deck creates the perfect position for a hot tub.
Within the grounds sits a detached self-contained stone annexe, offering excellent potential for guest accommodation, multigenerational living, home-working or ancillary accommodation, subject to any necessary consents.
The private driveway offers substantial parking for vehicles, while the garages provide exceptional storage, workshop and lifestyle flexibility.
