Bourton Road, Much Wenlock, TF13

Occupying an enviable position just a short stroll from the historic heart of Much Wenlock, this exceptional Grade II listed home is steeped in history and beautifully preserved. Offering versatile accommodation arranged across multiple split level floors, the property dates back several centuries and is rich in original character, with an abundance of period features including exposed timbers, traditional latch doors and a magnificent inglenook fireplace with wood-burning stove. Complementing the inglenook are two further log-burning stoves positioned throughout the home, creating wonderfully cosy reception spaces and enhancing the property's timeless appeal.

The accommodation is both flexible and generously proportioned, making it ideally suited to family life, multi-generational living or those seeking dedicated work-from-home space. A series of welcoming reception rooms, arranged across different floors, provide inviting spaces for both everyday living and entertaining. Each enjoys the warmth and character of the property's original features, including exposed timbers and log-burning stoves. The farmhouse-style kitchen complements the home's period charm, featuring solid wood worktops, exposed beams and direct access to the beautifully established rear garden.

The current owners have found the layout particularly well suited to modern living, especially when working from home or pursuing individual hobbies. The separation of the reception rooms across different levels allows occupants to enjoy the property simultaneously, providing quiet, private spaces without disturbing one another.

The principal landing on the first floor serves two well-proportioned double bedrooms and a family bathroom. One of the bedrooms benefits from an adjoining room, offering excellent flexibility as a dressing room, home office or nursery. A third double bedroom is accessed via a separate staircase, creating an ideal guest suite complete with its own en-suite bathroom room.

The lower ground floor provides a further family bathroom together with a traditional cellar, ideal for wine storage or a variety of ancillary uses.

Externally, the property is approached via a driveway providing ample parking, leading to a double garage with one further additional parking space. The attractive front garden creates an inviting first impression, while the rear garden is a true highlight of the home. Exceptionally private and thoughtfully landscaped, it offers a variety of distinct areas to enjoy throughout the seasons, from the central lawn framed by mature planting to secluded seating areas that provide peaceful spots for relaxation and outdoor entertaining.
