More Cottage is a breath-taking end-terrace home that masterfully balances its rich historical charm with a vibrant sense of contemporary luxury. Originally believed to serve as the wages office for local miners before its evolution into a village inn, this property has been meticulously transformed into a high-end sanctuary. It is an ideal prospect for a first-time buyer seeking a "turn-key" home or a discerning individual looking for a distinctive second-home retreat that requires no further work.

Your journey begins in the designer kitchen, where rustic architecture meets a bold, modern palette of deep-blue cabinetry and warm solid-wood worktops. This space is as functional as it is beautiful, featuring high-end Smeg appliances and an original exposed timber beam that sits beneath a large, light-giving skylight. Tucked discreetly to the right of the kitchen, you will find a practical utility area with dedicated storage and plumbing to keep the main living space clutter-free. Adjacent to the utility area is a serene ground-floor bathroom, which features a classic panelled bath with an electric shower, WC and a chic vanity basin.

Moving into the heart of the cottage, the lounge defines the word "cosy" through its magnificent exposed ceiling joists and premium Indian sandstone flooring. The room is enveloped in character, featuring stunning sections of original exposed stone on the walls that highlight the building's heritage. Despite its historic roots, the space feels incredibly bright and open thanks to three windows that flood the room with natural light. The true focal point of this space is a grand recessed fireplace housing a double log-burning stove, creating a rich and tactile environment of stone and timber that invites you to relax by the fire.

A bespoke turn staircase rises gracefully from the living room to lead you into the spectacular master bedroom suite. This expansive retreat continues the theme of rustic elegance, showcasing the building's original stone gable end and further exposed stonework on the walls. The room offers a bright, airy atmosphere thanks to large windows and an additional skylight. The suite is completed by a private, luxurious en-suite shower room consisting of a modern corner shower, WC, and basin, providing a seamless and high-quality finish to the sleeping quarters.

The exterior of the property is just as impressive, offering a charming private front garden and the rare, highly practical benefit of off-road parking for two vehicles. Situated in the scenic area of Shelve, the property is surrounded by beautiful rolling countryside. From the outside, the home enjoys stunning, far-reaching views over the Shropshire and Welsh hills, making it a dream location for those who love the outdoors. The dramatic landscapes of the Stiperstones and Hope Valley are right on your doorstep for weekend exploration.

While the location offers a sense of escape, it remains within easy reach of local essentials, including a primary school, a popular pub, and a convenient supermarket in the surrounding area. For a wider taste of culture and commerce, the historic medieval town of Shrewsbury is only a short drive away, offering award-winning restaurants, independent boutiques, and excellent transport links. This location perfectly bridges the gap between rural beauty and modern convenience, making it an ideal choice for a full-time residence or a lock-up-and-leave holiday home.
