High Street, Albrighton, WV7

Bartlams Estate Agents of Albrighton are delighted to present this extraordinary period cottage, steeped in history and nestled in the heart of the village on Albrighton High Street. Just a short stroll from an array of shops, cafés, and amenities, this charming home is a true gem, boasting original character features that have been lovingly preserved by the current owners. With its picturesque white façade, slabbed frontage, and mature shrubbery, the cottage has all the appeal of a traditional chocolate-box home, offering a rare blend of heritage and comfort.

Upon entering, a long entrance hall provides access to all ground-floor rooms, as well as a two-room cellar. The first reception room, overlooking the front of the property, is a cosy space featuring a large window, original cast iron fire surround, fireplace, and exposed wooden beams. Moving further in, the spacious double-length lounge is a true statement space, showcasing a magnificent feature fireplace with a cast iron stove and oak beam surround, as well as original ceiling beams that highlight the property’s historic charm. This room enjoys plenty of natural light from both a front-facing window and double patio doors leading out to the courtyard.

Beyond the lounge, a second reception room, currently used as a study and snug, features two walls filled with books, creating a wonderfully warm and inviting atmosphere. A large window overlooks the courtyard, adding to the room’s charm. The heart of the home is undoubtedly the breathtaking, double-height kitchen and dining area, which was once a barn.

Retaining its original character, this impressive space boasts vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and stunning barn hatch holes converted into windows that flood the room with natural light. The beautifully designed country-style kitchen is both functional and stylish, featuring a double fridge, double oven, breakfast bar, and a charming downstairs WC. This spectacular space is perfect for entertaining.

Heading upstairs, a mid-level bedroom offers a secluded retreat, while the main first floor hosts four additional bedrooms, each with its own unique character and original features. The family bathroom is finished to a high standard, complete with a roll-top bath, shower cubicle, WC, and a stylish vanity sink unit.

Externally, the property is equally impressive, with a courtyard leading to a collection of historic outbuildings, including a two-storey barn and a two-storey workshop, all benefiting from electricity. These additional spaces offer endless potential, from home offices to creative studios or guest accommodation.
