Dating back to 1872, the property originally served the community as both the local school and the Headmaster's house.

In 1980's, these two distinct elements were thoughtfully converted and integrated into a single, substantial dwelling.

Unlike many contemporary conversions, this residence has meticulously preserved the soul of its former life; from the original arched stone-framed windows to the whimsical carved initials of former pupils still visible in the front porch, every corner tells a story.

The sense of arrival is immediate. Entry is gained through a grand arched stone porch, housing the original timber door which opens into a sophisticated hallway and study area.

This space, featuring elegant timber wall panelling, serves as the central pivot of the home, offering a cloakroom to the right and providing a formal transition into the principal living areas.

To the heart of the home lies the spectacular Drawing Room-formerly the junior classroom.

This room is a masterclass in architectural drama, defined by soaring vaulted ceilings and an intricate web of exposed roof trusses.

It is centred around a magnificent sandstone fireplace with a cosy wood-burning stove. Rising from this room, a unique dual-level staircase ascends to a versatile galleried sitting room.

This elevated retreat features double doors leading directly onto a decked balcony, positioned to capture uninterrupted, panoramic views toward the majestic Long Mountain.

The ground floor layout is designed for effortless flow and versatility. To the right of the entrance, the Lounge provides a substantial space for relaxation, leading through to an inner hallway.

From here, access is provided to the well-appointed Kitchen, a formal Dining Room, and a large second kitchen/utility room-an ideal configuration for multi-generational living or grand-scale hosting.

Both the lounge and the utility room transition seamlessly into a bright, airy Garden Room, which is also accessible from the drawing room, ensuring the house remains connected to its picturesque surroundings.

The accommodation is remarkably flexible, offering five spacious bedrooms. This includes a valuable ground-floor en-suite bedroom accessed via the drawing room, providing excellent privacy for guests.

A second staircase, located in the inner hall near the kitchen, provides a practical alternative route to the first floor.

Ascending to the upper level, the galleried landing leads to four further bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom.

Two of these bedrooms benefit from private en-suite facilities, continuing the theme of luxurious and comfortable private spaces found throughout the home.

The exterior is as enchanting as the interior, set within private, established grounds secured by mature hedging.

To the west, a charming patio serves as a sun trap for afternoon light, while the garden also features a tranquil pond area.

Practicality is well-addressed with a substantial shed-workshop equipped with power and lighting.

This property represents a rare opportunity to own a secluded piece of Shropshire history, expertly remodelled for 21st-century living.
