Location
The property is situated just off a public bridleway approximately 200 meters north of the
small village of Ackleton on the Shropshire/Wolverhampton border. Set within its own pasture
land and surrounded by open countryside, Millfield Farm affords a great deal of privacy whilst
maintaining swift accessibility to the major towns of Telford (11 miles northwest) and
Bridgnorth (6.7 miles southwest) and the city of Wolverhampton (11.5 miles east).
Directions
From Bridgnorth take the B4363 east towards Wolverhampton. After reaching the garage at
Worfield, take the left hand turn followed by the next right signposted for Albrighton. Upon
reaching the T-Junction with the B4176 turn left towards Telford and after approximately 0.5
miles take the right hand turn for Ackleton. At the T-Junction in the centre of the village turn
left. The access to the property is located on the right hand side and is identified by our ‘for
sale’ board.
Millfield Farm
Millfield Farm comprises a derelict two storey detached cottage set amongst approximately
4.32 acres (1.74ha) of land. This sale represents a fantastic opportunity for small scale
developers looking to take advantage of the property’s location for resale, or for those looking
to invest in their very own renovation project.
Internally, the cottage comprises two reception rooms at ground floor level (3.90m x 3.80m &
3.81m x 3.61m max) and a further three rooms on the first floor (3.39 x 3.77m max; 3.87m x
2.22m, &; 3.85m x 1.46m). To the side of the property is a dilapidated former cowshed (4.55m
x 3.81m) which could provide additional living accommodation, subject to the necessary
approval.
Outside
Surrounding the cottage on all sides are the former gardens, part of which have now been
laid to hardcore. There is small wooded area and former vegetable patch/orchard to the
rear along with the former brick under tile outside toilet.
The Land
The pasture land extends to approximately 3.68 acres (1.49ha) and is located to the west
of the cottage with direct access into Badgers Dingle via the public Bridle way.
Services
It is understood that the property does not benefit from any services but that there is a
pipe laid to the main Stableford Road for a water connection. There is also an existing
well with a good feed of water which could be utilised subject to the necessary tests.
Tenure and Possession
The property is offered for sale freehold and with vacant possession available upon
completion.
Easements, Wayleaves & Rights of Way
The property is sold subject to and with the benefit of all existing rights of way, whether
public or private, light, support, drainage, water and electricity supplies together with all
other rights of way and obligations, easements and all wayleaves whether referred to in
these particulars or not.
Planning
Prospective purchasers are advised to make their own enquiries with the Local Planning
Authority with regards to the residential development/renovation potential of the
property.
