Description
Perfect for first time buyers, growing families, or those seeking an affordable, characterful home with space to make their own, this charming late 19th-century detached property offers a rare opportunity to blend period elegance with modern living in a sought-after village setting—viewing is essential to appreciate the full potential.
Located in the heart of the village, this handsome home opens into a wide entrance hallway that immediately showcases its high ceilings and original charm. Two spacious reception rooms sit to the front and side of the house, with the living room having a large bay window. The breakfast kitchen at the rear is fully fitted and enjoys views across the garden, with room for a family table. The rear porch area offers a practical link to the garden, with a useful downstairs guest W.C. A dry cellar beneath the property adds a versatile space that could serve as additional storage, a utility area, or even be converted for other uses subject to needs.
Upstairs are three well-sized bedrooms, each full of natural light and offering pleasant views either over the garden or to the front. The family shower room is neat and functional, while the layout gives plenty of opportunity for modernisation or reconfiguration. Outside, the rear garden is a true standout feature. A generous plot, mainly laid to lawn with mature shrubs and trees, it offers excellent potential for families to enjoy outdoor living or for keen gardeners to shape into something special. The property currently benefits from a verbal agreement for the use of two allocated parking spaces at the rear, making daily life more convenient. Whether you're searching for a peaceful retreat or a long-term home to grow into, the blend of character features and flexible space offers plenty of scope to put your own stamp on the place.
Cross Houses is a popular and well-connected village, with easy access to Shrewsbury, Telford and beyond, making it ideal for families and commuters alike. There are good local schools nearby, and the area’s rural charm means countryside walks are always close to hand. The community feel and accessibility combine with the generous garden and classic features to make this home a standout choice for anyone seeking period character with practical everyday living.
