• Characterful reception rooms with an inglenook fireplace and a conservatory overlooking the woodland ridge

• Beautifully established gardens, terraces and river frontage creating an idyllic rural setting

Approached via a long private driveway beneath the Long Mynd, Myrtle Grove enjoys a private yet accessible setting. The early-1800s stone cottage and later 20th century extension sit comfortably within mature gardens, with the river, trees and woodland backdrop giving the property a calm and distinctly rural feel.

The grounds extend naturally from the gardens to the river beyond, providing space for grazing, kitchen-garden ambitions, wildlife interest or simply enjoying the peaceful outlook and rhythm of life by the water.

The cottage retains its character with exposed beams, thick stone walls and traditional features. The accommodation includes an entrance hall, a cosy sitting room with a stone inglenook fireplace and wood-burning stove, a bright conservatory with garden and river views, a snug/study, a spacious farmhouse kitchen with French doors to the patio, a utility room and a ground-floor shower room.

Upstairs in the cottage are two bedrooms, including a generous principal suite with dressing room and ensuite bathroom, together with a further double/twin bedroom.

The late 20th century extension enjoys views across the grounds, river and woodland, with its own external entrance and underfloor heating. It provides a large living room, dining room, WC, additional kitchen space, three bedrooms and a bathroom, offering flexibility for extended family or guest accommodation.

The gardens include lawns, mature shrubs, established trees, colourful borders, patio areas and peaceful riverside seating. Raised beds, a greenhouse, a timber shed, a detached double garage and a workshop add practical appeal.

Myrtle Grove is situated in the hamlet of Horderley, with direct access to the main road and convenient links to the surrounding area. Craven Arms is close by for everyday amenities and the Welsh Marches rail line, while Bishop’s Castle and Church Stretton are around 10 minutes away and Ludlow is within a 20-minute drive. The Shropshire Hills are on the doorstep for walking, riding and outdoor pursuits.
