Location

Haughton has long since been considered to be one of the most sought after addresses within Shifnal which is an affluent Shropshire village which provides a full complement of local facilities which are ideal for everyday needs.

Communications are excellent with Shifnal Station providing direct services to Shrewsbury, Birmingham and beyond and the M54 (J4) being within a few minutes drive facilitating fast access to the entire motorway network. Furthermore, the area is well served by schooling in both sectors.

Description

Bridge Cottage is well screened from the road with parking and a garage at the rear. The property has been owned by the same family for approximately 100 years and in that time beautiful gardens have been planted.
