Description - Halls are delighted with instructions to offer Rose Cottage in Brown Heath, Ellesmere for sale by private treaty.

Rose Cottage is a deceptively spacious detached country cottage which has been lovingly modernised and improved by the current vendors to now provide around 1,600 sq ft of characterful and elegantly appointed living accommodation flexibly arranged across two versatile floors with stylish decorative finishes such as a twisted chimney stack and individually cut patterned roof slates.

The property is enviably situated within land and gardens which extend, in all, to around 0.65 acres, whilst bordering open farmland to the south. The gardens have, again, been subject to improvements works and presently comprise areas of lawn interspersed by floral beds, alongside a productive cottage garden and a delightfully private seating area with a central pond.

Notably, the property also boasts a detached one-bedroom annexe ideal for multi-generational families or those seeking ancillary guest accommodation, this joined to one side by a twin-bay timber carport.

Situation - Rose Cottage is situated in a most attractive unspoilt location in the heart of the noted North Shropshire countryside a short distance from the popular village of Loppington. The village provides a thriving community, together with a pub, post office, village hall and church.

The county town of Shrewsbury (13 miles) is also within an easy drive which offers a more comprehensive range of amenities of all kinds.
