Description - Hollies is an exceptional example of modern country living providing a rare opportunity to purchase a light and spacious 4-bedroom, detached family home set within 5.5 acres of beautiful gardens and pasture fields, complete with 2 natural spring fed Lily pools.
Hollies is located within the peaceful hamlet of Bings Heath, a sought-after area with uninterrupted views and set in the heart of Shropshire located only 2.7 miles to the historic market town of Shrewsbury and 2 miles to the nearby, local village of Shawbury, as well as being within easy reach of the M54.
The Hollies was architecturally designed and virtually rebuilt in 2006 by the current vendors who created a large family home, giving it a modern day feel, whilst retaining the original features. The property has been tastefully extended and modernised over time. Its original features include inglenook fireplaces, original beams and trusses throughout the property, some of which are said to have been obtained from the Spanish Armada in the early 1800’s.
The property is sold with No Upward Chain.

Ground Floor - Upon entering the Hollies it instantly sets the impression of a spacious & much loved family home. From the porch leading to a large airy entrance hall with light spreading from a floor to ceiling window, which hugs the staircase offering scenic far-reaching views of the country side and the local village in the distance. The hallway leads to a large sitting room to the right and a welcoming kitchen and snug to the left. The hall also benefits from a downstairs cloakroom.
The large sitting room is bright and spacious, offering extensive natural light from its 3 sets of French doors and two picture windows looking across the gardens and fields. The sitting room also benefits from a multi-fuel burner set within a modern feature fireplace. A perfect room which suits all seasons from warm summer days through to the cosy winter nights.
To the left of the hallway, leading you to the heart of this beautiful home, is an open plan modern Kitchen/Living/Dining area known as “The Snug”, a cosy family room and also perfect for entertaining guests, family and friends. This is the oldest part of the property with a rich history. The kitchen has an excellent range of fitted units and integrated appliances, along with a pullout pantry and granite worktops.
The snug and living area has a set of large French doors to the south facing front of the house and gardens.
A historic inglenook fireplace constructed of bricks from Shawbury brickworks, includes an inset Stovax woodburning stove, and takes centre stage in this delightful room, giving a ‘wow’ factor in the heart of the home. Original beams and trusses partition the kitchen and take you back in time to when the Hollies was once a public house, many years ago.
Leading on from the kitchen, and snug, is another hallway providing access to a separate part of the property, which has the potential for several useful opportunities including a self-contained annexe, holiday let, workspace or simply to enjoy as an additional part of the home.
From the hallway leads to a spacious office/study with a door leading to the south facing front garden as well as a built-in storage cupboard. A good size utility room provides lots of storage cupboards and spaces for undercounter appliances, giving plenty of room to store all manner of extra household goods. Leading on from the utility room is a boot room with a large storage cupboard and a back door with the added benefit of an additional bathroom with an electric shower. The boot room links to the utility and the garden room.
The garden room can be accessed from the hallway or boot room, where you will find a spacious and light filled area enjoying uninterrupted views overlooking the splendid gardens and 5 acres of pasture fields, including the two spring fed lily pools. The garden room has a set of French doors leading to a decking area which also shares the views over the fields and lily pools. The evening sunsets from the garden room are a real treat and make it a great place to entertain and relax, all year round.

First Floor - From the entrance hallway leading up to the split staircase is a very large window from the floor to the ceiling giving splendid far-reaching, uninterrupted views of the surrounding countryside. On the first-floor are four generous sized double bedrooms with en-suites and a family bathroom. All bedrooms have unique existing features including beams and far-reaching private views of the gardens and fields, leaving the rooms feeling light and airy. The long landing also has beautiful beams and sky lights leading to the bedrooms and family bathroom with a generous airing cupboard.
The expansive master bedroom includes two sets of French doors, with Juliet balcony’s, giving much light and offering a cool breeze on hot summer nights or you can enjoy the sunrise every morning from the comfort of your own bed.
A generous walk-in dressing room, accessed off the master bedroom, has French doors and garden views. The dressing room gives ample storage space, shelving and hanging space for clothes. The master ensuite has a sky light, newly fitted shower and a new Roca sink with draws and a basin. There is a white tiled marble floor.
The second bedroom is another spacious room with oak beams, south facing garden views, sky light and a good sized en-suite with a jacuzzi bath, sink and basin.
The third and fourth bedrooms are both generous doubles with original beams and large windows, with far reaching views of the countryside. The fourth bedroom has an en-suite shower room with sink and basin along with the Family bathroom that has a newly fitted shower, large corner bath, sink and basin.

Outside - Approaching the drive from a quiet lane, you will find large South facing gardens, laid to lawn around the property along with mature flower beds and shrubberies. Gravel seating areas surround the property giving a selection of spaces for your enjoyment along with a decking area for entertaining or relaxing. An orchard provides many delights including cooking apples, pears, plumbs, cherry, and apple trees. The pasture fields extend to around 5 acres, offering year round grazing. Two Lily pools are full to the brim of beautiful white lotus bearing flowers, and are surrounded by Oak and other native trees, creating a wild habitat for nature. The pools offer a pleasant and peaceful area to sit, relax and enjoy your own bit of sanctuary, within the grounds, with views of the house and surrounding fields.
