Set amidst the gentle rolling countryside of South Shropshire, Culmington Farm presents a rare opportunity to acquire a distinguished Grade II listed farmhouse of considerable scale, complemented by beautiful gardens, pastureland and excellent facilities for an equestrian lifestyle.<br/>Extending to approximately 7494sq ft and set within 2.62 acres, this is a home that perfectly balances heritage, space and rural tranquillity, all within easy reach of the highly regarded market town of Ludlow.<br/><br/>Believed to date from the mid-19th century and lovingly held by the same family for over seven decades, the house exudes a quiet grandeur. Its handsome double-fronted façade hints at the elegance and volume within, where a wealth of original features sit effortlessly alongside the comforts of modern living. <br/>The accommodation unfolds across four floors, offering wonderfully versatile living space suited to both family life and entertaining on a generous scale. At its heart lies an inviting kitchen, breakfast and family room, designed for relaxed, everyday living, while a series of beautifully proportioned reception rooms—including a striking drawing room with inglenook fireplace—offer a more formal setting when required.<br/>Across the house, there is a palpable sense of light and flow, with three reception rooms providing flexibility to tailor the space to individual lifestyles.<br/>The upper floors offer six spacious bedrooms, arranged to provide both comfort and privacy, making the property equally suited to large families, guests or multi-generational living.<br/><br/>Beyond the house, the grounds are a defining feature—thoughtfully arranged, private and rich in possibility.<br/>A sweeping approach leads to an extensive range of outbuildings, including garaging, workshop space and a versatile gym and granary, offering scope for a variety of uses.<br/>For those with equestrian interests, the property is particularly appealing. Discreetly positioned stabling and hardstanding are accessed via a traditional five-bar gate, opening into gently sloping pastureland, ideal for grazing horses or ponies. <br/>The land is bordered by a tributary of the River Corve and enjoys far-reaching views across unspoilt countryside, creating a setting that is both peaceful and inspiring. <br/>Surrounding the house, the wraparound gardens are beautifully matured, featuring expanses of lawn, established planting, a productive vegetable garden and a tranquil pond. Several secluded seating areas and a charming paved terrace provide perfect spots for al fresco dining and summer entertaining.<br/><br/>Location<br/>Culmington is a sought-after South Shropshire village, known for its strong community feel and scenic surroundings within the Corvedale, close to the Shropshire Hills National Landscape.<br/>The historic market town of Ludlow (approx. 5.9 miles) provides an excellent range of independent shops, eateries and everyday amenities, while nearby Craven Arms offers convenient rail links.<br/>The surrounding countryside is ideal for walking, riding and outdoor pursuits, further enhancing the property's lifestyle appeal.<br/><br/>Services: We understand that the property has oil fired central heating, mains electric, mains water and private drainage.<br/><br/>Broadband Speed: Basic 14 Mbps and Superfast 80 Mbps<br/><br/>Flood Risk: Very Low. <br/><br/>Tenure: Freehold<br/>Local Authority: Shropshire Council, The Shirehall, Abbey Foregate, Shrewsbury, Shropshire SY2 6ND.
