Situation: Castle Grange is situated in the area of The Linney, considered to be one of Ludlow's finest residential areas. The property is within walking distance of Ludlow town centre which is a thriving market town and an architectural gem with a lively community feel, busy with events and festivals throughout the year. It has an international reputation for food and drink with many excellent restaurants and cafes, enhanced by the area's abundance of good quality producers.
Ludlow is located just off the A49; the county town of Shrewsbury lies to the north and Hereford is to the south. Birmingham and the West Midlands are an approximate one hour commute with many convenient rail links.
There are excellent state and independent schools in the area including Moor Park, Bedstone and Shrewsbury School. Ludlow Golf Club and Ludlow National Hunt racecourse are within a fifteen minute drive.
Ludlow has a train station on the main Manchester to Cardiff line with trains running at regular intervals to Shrewsbury and Hereford. By changing just once, London is accessible in a little over three hours.
A Border Oak build, the house was one of the first properties to be constructed of this style. The ground floor boasts a front porch, a dining room, a kitchen / breakfast room, a drawing room with Inglenook fireplace with gas fire and a utility room with downstairs shower room / WC plus a study. On the first floor there are four double bedrooms including one with a mezzanine, a landing area ideal as a home office plus two family bath / shower rooms to service the bedrooms. All the rooms benefit from beautiful views of either the gardens or across The Linney towards Ludlow Castle and surrounding countryside. In addition to the main house there is an outbuilding ideal for conversion subject to the necessary planning consent. This could boast very flexible accommodation for a multitude of purposes including an annexe for a relation, guest quarters or perhaps even the opportunity for a potential buyer to have a home office and run a business from home. Outside there is a large garden mainly laid to lawn with an abundance of trees and seating areas, off road parking for several cars and a double garage. An additional strip of land has been purchased which adds even more potential for re-wilding or to re-configure the garden to facilitate a private tennis court or swimming pool.
