The property
This cosy detached stone farmhouse, with three bedrooms and substantial outbuildings, lies in a secluded position amidst the breathtaking countryside of the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Location
The property is located in a peaceful rural setting, in the heart of the stunning countryside of the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There is some fantastic walking, outriding and cycling to be enjoyed in the surrounding area, and immediately from the property.

Whilst enjoying its secluded setting, access to market towns and the wider national road network is good. The main road at the end of the private track connects the vibrant county town of Shrewsbury to the North and market towns such as Bishops Castle to the west and ever popular Ludlow in the south. Each offer their own identities and the amenities one would expect, but all are easily accessible from Birchope Farmhouse. The local communities throughout the region are strong and in the more immediate vicinity of the property are some smaller villages offering community shops and pubs, such as Wentnor, Norbury and Bridges.

Train stations are available at Church Stretton and Shrewsbury with connections to Manchester, Cardiff, Birmingham and London.

Outside
The property is found on its own at the end of a single-track lane, and features attractive landscaped gardens, which boast impressive views of The Stiperstones and surrounding countryside. The gardens include paved terracing and pathways, lawns, well-maintained flowerbeds and shrubs, and plenty of mature trees. The property also includes a sizeable barn, which provides extensive storage space, and a workshop but also the potential for future renovation or development, subject to the necessary consents.
The property benefits from a good paddock adjacent to the gardens and in total, the grounds extend to about 3.3 acres.
