Former Shropshire plant nursery business set to go under the hammer
A former North Shropshire plant nursery business with a four-bedroom house, detached garage block and around four acres of surrounding gardens and land will be going under the hammer later this month.
Ladywell Nurseries, in Whixall, which has a guide price of £250,000 to £300,000, is included in a collective property and land auction in Shrewsbury on Friday, October 20.
Ladywell Nurseries, which is being sold by Halls jointly with Berrys, includes a spacious, Alpine-type designed, detached house which has great potential for extensive refurbishment and modernisation.
The house has a rear entrance hall, kitchen, sitting room, living room, dining room, reception hall and wc on the ground floor and a master bedroom, three further bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs.
“The house has huge potential for improvement to become a first class family home,” said Halls’ chairman Allen Gittins, who will be conducting the auction.
“There is also a detached double garage block and extensive surrounding gardens which are overgrown and require landscaping.
“The grounds are a major feature of the property, having formerly been used as a nursery,” added Mr Gittins.
“The remains of some glasshouses and nursery structures are still in place but need to be demolished and the whole area landscaped. It is a great project for someone.
“The sale of Ladywell Nurseries provides a most unusual and interesting opportunity to purchase an individual country property in a private and unspoilt rural location.”
Viewing is by appointment with Halls’ Ellesmere office on 01691 622602.
