The home: Severn Lodge in New Road, Ironbridge, is an enchanting Grade II listed Georgian house with a symmetrical wisteria clad ‘dolls house’ facade, overlooking the Ironbridge Gorge and River. It’s thought to have been built by Sir Charles Beckworth-Soames in 1746 as a doctors house to the then rapidly expanding community based round the foundrys. The house offers light, attractive and comfortable accommodation with period features such as feature fireplaces, corniced ceilings and sash windows.
The business: The house is currently operating as a popular bed and breakfast business, with each bed boasting an en-suite bathroom and stunning views. Additionally there’s a flat converted from the original basement, which could be used as staff accommodation or a long-term let. A further surprising feature is a soundproofed recording studio, which could either be hired out or converted to office space.
Severn Lodge has a guide price of £895,000 through Savills on (01952) 239500.
