Lower Street, Cleobury Mortimer

38 Lower Street is an impressive Grade II Listed period residence occupying a prominent position in the heart of Cleobury Mortimer. Rich in architectural character and period detail, the property offers substantial and versatile accommodation arranged over three floors, together with cellar/dark rooms, a private rear garden and valuable off-road parking.

The property forms part of the historic Langland House and presents a handsome brick façade with attractive bow windows and a classical columned entrance. Internally, the house retains an impressive amount of original character and provides an exciting opportunity for a new owner to sympathetically update and personalise the accommodation.

The front door opens into a particularly impressive reception hall where dark timber panelling, a traditional staircase and decorative detailing immediately establish the character of the house.

There are two substantial reception rooms. One is currently arranged as a formal dining room and is an especially striking space, with extensive timber panelling, fitted shelving and bookcases, exposed ceiling timbers and a large bow window overlooking Lower Street. Its generous proportions would allow it to work equally well as a library, drawing room or formal entertaining space.

The principal sitting room is another spacious reception room, centred around a feature fireplace with wood-burning stove. Period detailing continues throughout, while glazed doors at the rear lead directly into the conservatory, creating a pleasant connection with the garden.

The conservatory enjoys plenty of natural light and views across the rear of the property, with doors opening outside. Currently used as an informal sitting and hobby space, it offers further flexible living accommodation and excellent potential as a garden room.

The kitchen is positioned towards the rear and is fitted with a range of wall and base units, work surfaces and space for appliances, together with room for a breakfast table. There is clear scope for a purchaser to modernise the kitchen to suit their own requirements, the kitchen also benefits from an attached laundry room. A ground-floor shower room completes the accommodation on this level.

Stairs descend to the cellar, where two useful rooms provide excellent storage and further practical space rarely found in a town-centre property of this type.

The first floor provides two particularly generous double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is an impressive room with a substantial range of fitted wardrobes and good levels of natural light. The second bedroom is also well proportioned and continues the sense of scale and character found throughout the house. A family bathroom and further facilities serve this floor.

The staircase continues to the second floor, where there are three further bedrooms. These provide excellent flexibility for family, guests, home working or hobbies as required, with additional WC facilities also available on this level.

In total, the property provides five bedrooms, making it particularly well suited to larger families or those seeking generous and adaptable accommodation.

Outside, the property benefits from a private rear garden enclosed by established walls and boundaries. The garden includes lawned areas, mature planting and shrubs, with considerable scope for further landscaping and improvement.

A particularly valuable feature for such a central position is the vehicular access and off-road parking to the rear. There is space for several vehicles together with a covered garage/carport area, providing useful parking and storage.

38 Lower Street represents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial Grade II Listed home in the centre of Cleobury Mortimer, combining impressive proportions, five-bedroom accommodation, extensive period character, cellar/dark rooms, garden and off-road parking, together with considerable scope for sympathetic updating and personalisation.
