Windmill Cottage is located on the Brown Clee, close to the popular village of Ditton Priors, between the market towns of Ludlow and Bridgnorth with the commercial centres of Telford, Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton within easy reach. The village has a good range of local amenities including a primary school, butchers, doctors’ surgery with a dispensary, shop, post office, and pub with more comprehensive facilities slightly further afield. The surrounding countryside is stunning and provides excellent walking and riding.

Road networks are good with Bridgnorth being within easy motoring distance of the West Midlands conurbation and the M54 providing access to the M6 motorway network beyond. Telford train station has connecting rail services to Birmingham New Street station and a direct service to London Euston.

The property is set in a beautiful split-level garden, including paved and gravel terracing and timber decking, well-maintained lawns and colourful border flowerbeds, bursting with life. There are also greenhouses and raised vegetable beds, peaceful seating areas and a secluded, elevated meadow with magnificent views across the surrounding Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The landscaped garden sits in half an acre, having an additional, secluded, elevated paddock and additional wild/natural areas. Totalling 1.5acres of land, this is a wonderful opportunity. At the front of the property there’s a gravel driveway, which provides plenty of parking space and access to the detached outbuilding, with its carport, garage/workshop / studio / storage. A useful space which could be used in a variety of ways.
