Severn House
This handsome Georgian detached family residence is believed to date back to about 1750. The house was later extended and now has scope for further improvement with
fantastic accommodation over three floors.

A portico leads to double doors with glazed inserts into a welcoming hall with original decorative tiled floors with doors leading to two particularly impressive reception rooms with boarded floors, open fireplaces and large bay
windows. The drawing room boasts the original cornice and open fire place, whilst the dining room has a gas fire place. A sitting room is located off the rear hall as is a study and WC whilst there is a sizeable fitted kitchen with
ample space for a dining table. There is a range of integral appliances and an Aga set into the hearth. Beyond lie a number of domestic rooms including a utility room and WC. French doors lead onto a terrace.

An impressive staircase sweeps to the first floor upon which there are four bedrooms, two featuring en suite shower rooms, the master being worthy of particular note with stunning views across the River Severn towards the
showground and Haughmond Hill in the distance. Other features include the original ceiling rose and cornicing. The guest bedroom is of a particularly generous size with dual
aspect windows and en suite whilst there are two further double bedrooms each with fitted storage and a bathroom and separate WC. The staircase continues to the second floor upon which there are three double bedrooms and a
bathroom.

The Coach House
Lying adjacent to one of the entrances the detached two storey coach house enjoys a number of original features yet provides
ample scope for further development into a separate dwelling.
