Red Abbey Barns, Alberbury - A beautiful Barn conversion

Nestled in the picturesque countryside of Alberbury, Shropshire, Red Abbey Barns is a truly remarkable 18th-century barn conversion that blends historic character with modern refinement. This exceptional residence offers five double bedrooms and five en-suite bathrooms, including a beautifully integrated annexe linked to the main home via a stunning oak and glass garden room. Converted to an exquisite standard in 2015 by a reputable local developer, the home has since been thoughtfully upgraded by the current owners.

On arrival, electric gates open to reveal the timeless beauty of the original stone exterior, framed with rustic oak beams and surrounded by well-maintained gardens. Inside, the property offers a wealth of space including three reception rooms—one currently used as a cinema room—and a first-floor living space with floor-to-ceiling panoramic views across the surrounding countryside.

The heart of the home is the generous kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with bespoke cabinetry, high-spec appliances, and ample preparation space. Adjacent are a practical utility room and downstairs WC. The oak and glass garden room not only connects the annexe but also serves as a peaceful sunlit retreat overlooking the landscaped gardens.

The main residence features four double bedrooms, each with luxurious en-suites and walk-in wardrobes. The top-floor landing provides a spacious area currently used as a home office, ideal for remote working.

The self-contained annexe offers excellent flexibility—ideal for multigenerational living, guest accommodation, or a potential income stream, having been previously let during the Loton Park Hill Climb season at circa £150 per night.

Grounds and Outbuildings
Set within 0.46 acres, the south-facing garden features manicured lawns, mature trees, and breathtaking rural views. A large patio area is perfect for entertaining or peaceful outdoor dining. The oak-framed double carport and garage include a remote alarmed garage door, cast iron security bollards, and a fully boarded/insulated loft with water and electric—an excellent opportunity for conversion to an office, gym, or additional living space.
