Formerly part of the historic estate of the 'Earls of Coventry', the farm was purchased by the late owner in 1955 and, therefore, comes to the open market for the first time in 66 years. This farm and associated land (this lot is 44.18 acres) will be offered for sale by public auction, in three lots, this being lot A: Farmhouse and Outbuildings: The five bedroom farmhouse, has far reaching views westwards to the South Shropshire hills. Set back from the public highway behind a brick, sandstone capped garden wall, the farm house is accessed from the farm courtyard. The late Victorian farmhouse is substantially constructed of mellow red brick under pitched clay tiled roofs. With various outbuildings Cattle builbing, Fodeder barn etc. The land, which surrounds the farmhouse and farm buildings on three sides, extends to approximately 42.85 acres (17.35 ha) in five main enclosures. All bar one having good road frontage. The land is westerly facing, currently all permanent pasture, but has historically been arable cropped and had the benefit of a substantial under-drainage scheme. Bounded by mature hawthorn hedging with a number of hedgerow trees, the whole lends itself to livestock grazing. In total, with the farm house, garden, farmyard and buildings the whole extends to approximately 44.18 acres (17.88 ha).
