25 March 2009: Our superb mix of properties this week includes a charming border cottage ideal for first timer’s, a splendid wharf cottage built by Thomas Telford and a smart townhouse on the banks of the River Severn.

The Villa in Wappenshall, near Wellington, is a four-bedroom wharf cottage built by Thomas Telford in the traditional Duke-of-Sutherland style. The granite-floored kitchen is in the heart of the house, being central to the dining/drawing room, conservatory and a sitting room with superb demi- hexagonal bay window. There’s also a utility, family bathroom and hall with staircase leading to the first floor.
Upstairs, the master bedroom enjoys elevated outlooks to the garden. A fourth bedroom or dressing room/study is located off the master bedroom, and plumbing is in place for en suite facilities to be installed. Outside there’s an annex above the brick-built traditional double garage, where there is a good-sized living/games area with shower room on the ground floor.
On the market at £345,000 through Balfours on (01743) 353511.
