Positioned in the charming and sought-after village of Beckbury, just outside Shifnal, this exceptional 3/4 bedroom semi-detached home offers a rare opportunity to own a beautifully restored piece of history. Dating back to circa 1752, this former gardener's cottage has been sympathetically extended and fully modernised, creating a perfect harmony between traditional character and contemporary living.
Set back from Madeley Road on an elevated plot, the property is approached via electric gates and a sweeping driveway, offering both privacy and kerb appeal. From the moment you enter, you are welcomed by a sense of space and craftsmanship, with vaulted ceilings, handcrafted beams, and a seamless blend of old and new architecture.
The heart of the home is the impressive open-plan lounge and dining area, thoughtfully designed for modern living and entertaining. Bi-fold doors open to a private courtyard, while a feature picture window frames stunning countryside views overlooking the David Austin development fields—perfectly enjoyed from the comfort of your sofa.
Every detail has been carefully considered, with bespoke fixtures and fittings throughout. The living area flows into a beautifully appointed kitchen/breakfast room, boasting marble worktops, a Rangemaster cooker, professionally hand-painted units with new pewter handles, integrated appliances, and even a hand-carved house name within the oak shelving and wine rack.
Adjoining the kitchen, you'll find a utility area and a brand new shower room, offering both style and practicality. An additional entrance hallway and reception space sit within the original cottage, now featuring a reconfigured staircase and further bi-fold doors, filling the space with natural light.
Upstairs, the first floor includes three well-proportioned bedrooms (with wardrobes & new carpets), a family bathroom, and a landing with integrated storage. The master bedroom provides access to a hidden second-floor room, currently used as a home office, complete with a Velux window, offering a versatile retreat.
Externally, the grounds have been landscaped to a high standard, including:
-A widened, resurfaced driveway with load-bearing gabions
-A Zen-inspired water garden
-An extended garden cabin with additional storage
-A secluded 'secret garden' with a hot tub
The home has undergone a full back-to-brick renovation, including:
-A new central heating system
-Antique-style radiators in keeping with the property’s heritage
-Underfloor heating
-Oak window sills and doors
-A discreet bin store and soakaway drainage system
This is a truly exceptional home, offering a rare combination of period charm, bespoke design, and modern luxury in a peaceful village setting. Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate everything this unique property has to offer.
Set within the delightful village of Beckbury in Shropshire, the property enjoys a wonderfully peaceful rural setting coupled with a strong sense of community spirit. The village offers a local pub, a Church of England primary school, and the historic St Milburga’s Church. Residents can savour an idyllic countryside lifestyle while benefitting from excellent access to major commercial centres and the motorway network, ensuring easy travel to surrounding towns and cities.
