Situation - Colebatch is a small and highly desirable rural hamlet situated amidst some of South Shropshire's most beautiful countryside. The nearby market town of Bishop's Castle offers an excellent range of everyday amenities, including schools, independent shops, pubs, cafés, medical facilities and a dental practice. The larger towns of Shrewsbury to the north and Ludlow to the south are both within comfortable driving distance and provide a comprehensive range of shopping, leisure and transport facilities.
Renowned for its outstanding natural beauty, South Shropshire is a haven for walkers, cyclists and outdoor enthusiasts, with the surrounding hills, valleys and country lanes offering endless opportunities for exploration. 19 Colebatch is set away from any main road and represents a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented family home with exceptional gardens and grounds extending to 0.8 of an acre in one of the county's most sought-after rural locations.
Description - Tucked away at the end of a private no-through country lane within the peaceful rural hamlet of Colebatch, this charming detached stone cottage enjoys an enviable setting surrounded by glorious Shropshire countryside. Offering the perfect balance of tranquillity and community, the property benefits from delightful rural views in a wonderfully quiet location, whilst remaining far from isolated, with neighbouring properties sharing the private lane. Quintessentially English in both character and appearance, this attractive country cottage presents a rare opportunity to acquire a home of genuine charm together with an adjoining pasture paddock extending to approximately 0.65 of an acre.
The cottage offers beautifully characterful accommodation, blending traditional features with tasteful modern improvements. The welcoming entrance lobby provides access to the principal reception rooms. To one side is the cosy living room, featuring an attractive wooden floor and windows to both the front and side, creating a wonderfully light yet intimate living space. Opposite, the dining room exudes cottage charm with its painted ceiling joists and tiled floor, which continues seamlessly into the stylish contemporary kitchen. Here, sleek modern units complement the exposed ceiling timbers to create a practical yet sympathetic heart of the home.
The accommodation offers excellent flexibility with three principal bedrooms, together with an additional interconnecting room that could readily serve as a fourth bedroom, dressing room or en-suite facility to the main bedroom. A useful ground floor bedroom provides ideal accommodation for guests, multi-generational living or those seeking predominantly single-storey occupancy. Completing the ground floor is a modern shower room, accessed from the rear hall, which also benefits from an external side entrance for added convenience.
Gardens And Land - The property stands within beautifully maintained gardens that perfectly complement its cottage setting. Immediately surrounding the house are predominantly lawned gardens enclosed by attractive stone walls, creating a wonderfully private and sheltered environment. A delightful paved patio terrace provides an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining, whilst picket fencing enhances the traditional cottage appeal. Beyond are useful timber stores leading to a generous tarmac parking area providing ample space for several vehicles.
Continuing along the private lane, an entrance gate opens into the adjoining pasture paddock, which extends to approximately 0.65 of an acre. Exceptionally level and laid predominantly to grass, the paddock is enclosed by established hedgerow boundaries and offers excellent potential for grazing a variety of livestock, equestrian or smallholding interests, horticultural cultivation, or a range of alternative personal or business uses, subject to any necessary consents. A charming shepherd's hut is positioned within the paddock and is available by separate negotiation, offering further versatility and appeal.
