Fox Hollow, Armoury Lane, Prees, SY13 2EN, £550,000

Step into this spacious detached country cottage and feel the stress levels miraculously disappear. It is difficult to imagine who would not want to live here, although if you crave nearby pubs, clubs, shops and bars, stop reading immediately and look elsewhere.

The lovely gardens and fields that come with this property are a joy to behold, with far reaching rural views towards Hawkstone Follies and golf course in the distance. There are stables too on this six-acre plot. The cottage has been extensively modernised and extended, while retaining charm and character including a wealth of exposed beams, the kitchen/breakfast room was refitted in 2018 and is to die for! Matching units feature in the utility room and from here there is access to the fifth bedroom with en-suite shower room and could easily adapt into a separate annexe for a dependent relative. There are four further double bedrooms upstairs, three with en-suite access.
