Former Victorian village school on the market as four-bedroom house in quaint Shropshire village for just £650K
A former village school building near Shrewsbury is unexpectedly back on the property market following a chain collapse.
Someone's misfortune could be good news for another buyer as the four bed detached house conversion property in Ruyton Xi Towns is being marketed for offers over £650,000.
Property agents Strike and Zoopla say the freehold property in School Road in the "quiet village" is a truly unique open plan conversion of the former village school.
The agents say: "Built in 1819, this impressive 3,500-plus sq.ft home beautifully combines period features with modern rustic décor to create a serene space ideal for entertaining or relaxing.
"It has recently undergone a year of extensive repair and renovations so is move-in ready and has an array of top-of-the-range fixtures and fittings.
"In addition to the open plan lounge, dining and kitchen area there is a reading room, conservatory currently being used as a home-gym and multiple office spaces making it the perfect house from which to work from home."
Upstairs, there are four double bedrooms, two ensuites and a family bathroom as well as a full-length boarded loft space.
Outside, the property has a modest-sized lawned area with mature trees and shrubs and a separate private courtyard ideal for outdoor dining.
"This home would suit someone who wants a large house, but an easily managed garden," say the agents.
They add: "There will be no better house on the market at this price point where hosting family and friends could be more special. The spacious kitchen and dining area, complete with Aga, flows seamlessly from the main living area and offers limitless potential for family gatherings and socialising.
"This home is truly one of a kind and the new owners will get to benefit from the many months of hard work and investment that it took to make this unique dwelling the most wonderful of homes."
