Built in 1902 with classical Edwardian architecture and proportions, Clivedon
strikes a lovingly crafted balance between the past and the present, enhanced
under the current ownership. Charming period details include high ceilings
with ornate cornicing, arched frameworks, original panelled doors, decorative
fireplaces and majestic original stained - glass windows.
The ground floor accommodation has an excellent flow of rooms radiating off an
inviting hallway flooded with light from a half landing. There are two primary
reception rooms, a triple aspect drawing room with French doors onto the
garden and a study enjoying far reaching views of Church Stretton. At the rear
of the house a recent single story addition incorporates a superb kitchen and
dining room with underfloor heating that is filled with natural light from a
sky lantern along with French doors out to the terrace. The kitchen is fitted
with timeless shaker style cabinetry under oak worksurfaces, an induction hob
and integrated oven. A walk in pantry provides further storage and space for a
freestanding fridge freezer. A rear porch with external door opens into a
utility room and WC.
Over the second and third floors are five individually styled double bedrooms,
two en - suite, enjoying elevated vistas over the surrounding landscape.
Accessed off the generous first floor landing is a delightful balcony with far
reaching views. To this floor are the principal bedroom with luxurious en -
suite, second bedroom, family bathroom, walk in wardrobe and WC. There are
three further bedrooms to the third floor.

A low - level red brick
wall fronts the street, with access onto a gravelled driveway providing
parking for several cars. A series of steps lead up to the attractive entrance
porch and a planted border, filled with mature shrubs, adorns the front garden
with a small paved seating area.
Extending off the back of the house is a large terrace ideal for alfresco
dining, accessed directly off the kitchen. Retaining walls provide a pleasing
sense of enclosure to the terrace with steps rising to an area laid to lawn
and interspersed with seasonal flowering bulbs and a number of specimen trees.
A brick garage with electric door offers excellent storage.
Agents note: Double glazed sash windows and external doors were installed in
2021.
