Description
LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION
The village of Higher Heath is located in rural north Shropshire. It is situated near the Welsh border and is surrounded by beautiful countryside. The village has a population of around 500 people and is known for its peaceful and tranquil atmosphere. With a strong sense of community, it is a charming and picturesque village that offers a peaceful and relaxing way of life.
Country walks galore, minutes from your doorstep, you will find a nature reserve filled with wildlife, a very popular destination for dog walkers. Higher Heath Village Hall is a hive of activity throughout the week, a great place to meet people and make new friends at a coffee morning.
For the younger residents, there is a great-sized park with a well-maintained children's playground and for the adults, there is park gym equipment to help you keep in tip-top condition.
If you want a shop, the village of Prees is only 2 miles away with a range of independent shops, a traditional post office, a convenience store, a hairdresser, an Electrical and appliance store, a car garage and a doctor's surgery. Not forgetting the Press social club with its sports pitches and bowling green.
3.5 miles away is the market town of Whitchurch with a bustling high street filled with independent shops, cafes, restaurants and some great pubs. Now add Sainsbury's and Tesco's superstores, Iceland, D&M, Screwfix, Lidl and Aldi. The Whitchurch train station offers free car parking and trains to Chester, Shrewsbury, Crewe, Manchester, Liverpool and London; some routes are direct and others require changes.
You will also find a great choice of well-respected schools, both primary and secondary, all with school bus services picking up and dropping off just a very short distance from your front door.
Higher Heath is a great location not to be overlooked.
Now, let's talk a little bit about the property itself.
Built in the early 1900s, this home has been thoughtfully upgraded throughout, blending modern convenience with its original charm.
So, what makes this property stand out? First, the plot—over half an acre—with a dual-access driveway and extensive front and rear gardens. From the outside, the home appears understated, but step inside and you'll discover its impressive scale: 233 sqm spread across three floors.
Ground & First Floors
The ground floor offers generous living space, including:
A grand hallway
A spacious new kitchen-diner
A large living room with high ceilings
A downstairs bedroom with a brand-new ensuite shower room
A newly fitted cloakroom
A beautiful stained-glass window highlights the staircase to the first-floor landing. Upstairs, you'll find four double bedrooms—one with a new ensuite shower room, three with ensuite toilets and sinks—plus a modern family bathroom. The layout is both practical and versatile, rarely matched for its balance of space and design.
Upgrades Completed
The current vendor has already carried out major improvements, including new electrics, upgraded radiators and plumbing where required, and the addition of multiple ensuites—making this home ideal for large families, growing households, multi-generational living or it even has planning consent for operation as a children's care home, subject to change of use.
Lower Ground Floor
Here's where things get exciting. The lower ground floor currently includes a twin-door garage, three storage rooms, and a former kitchen. With the right consents, this level could be transformed into:
A spacious self-contained annexe
A holiday let
Outside
The house sits centrally within its plot, with large front and rear gardens, established borders, and parking for at least ten cars via a double-entrance driveway. The gardens are neatly presented but offer huge potential—a blank canvas for keen gardeners. With the right permissions, there's ample space to add a detached garage or even a second dwelling.
