Gatacre Claverley Wolverhampton, Shropshire WV5

Set within a stunning Grade II Listed building, the property retains its period charm, while incorporating modern touches that ensure comfort and convenience.

Originally designed by Edward Gatacre II in the 17th Century. The Shropshire family took their name from the lands that they owned, and generations remained in the estate until 1987. During World War II, the Gatacre Estate housed over 1,300 soldiers as part of the usa Army Camp.

The apartment boasts a spacious, open-plan living area that benefits from an abundance of natural light, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout. From the large windows, residents can enjoy sweeping views over picturesque countryside fields and a serene, glistening lake within the grounds. The kitchen is designed with modern practicality in mind, offering integrated appliances and welcoming breakfast bar.

Both bedrooms are generously proportioned, offering peaceful retreats that maintain the property’s character with high ceilings, beautiful views and fitted wardrobes. The principal bedroom also offers en-suite facilities with a walk-in waterfall shower, WC, and hand basin.

Parking is also available and use of a large garage.

As you approach the grand Estate Hall, a beautiful stone planter commands attention to the front of the driveway giving access to purpose-built garages and two allocated parking spaces to Home Wood. Beyond the estate’s boundary, sweeping views of the countryside stretch onwards and, to the pleasure of the owners, a private lake with fishing rights.

Situated in a sought-after location, this unique apartment is perfectly positioned to enjoy the best of both worlds; the quiet beauty of country living with easy access to local amenities.
