Plot 32 - Yateley, Mytton Oak Manor, Bowbrook, Shrewsbury, SY3 5BT

Listed 12 days ago · Shrewsbury
If you're looking for a home with charm and character in bucketloads, but with the added luxury of being detached, this lovely Victorian home could be just what you're looking for. And it's tucked away in one of Shrewsbury's most sought-after locations, too!
This three-bedroom home in Cherry Orchard has been cherished by its current owner for over 30 years - and we think that says quite a lot. It's a home that's clearly been loved and cared for, with plenty of original character, some thoughtful improvements over the years and a beautiful south-facing garden that's every bit as inviting as the house itself.
There's plenty to admire before you've even stepped through the front door. The traditional red-brick frontage, attractive bay window and Victorian-style chequered tiled pathway give the house a wonderfully welcoming first impression, with a lovely sense of period charm.
Cosy Evenings and Room to Entertain
Step inside and you'll find two lovely reception rooms, each with its own character.
The living room is just the place to curl up on the sofa for a cosy evening in, particularly when there's a fire crackling away. The large bay window brings in plenty of natural light, while traditional picture rails and a beautiful open fireplace, complete with its decorative tiled surround, are wonderful reminders of the home's Victorian heritage. It's a room that feels full of warmth and character.
Moving through to the dining room, there's a lovely sense of space, with an open connection through to the kitchen that makes this part of the house particularly sociable.
There's ample room for a generous dining table, whether you're hosting family for Sunday lunch or enjoying a long evening with friends. And with a wood-burning stove to keep things wonderfully warm and cosy, it's easy to imagine spending plenty of time here.
The adjoining kitchen was updated in 2022, bringing a more contemporary feel to this characterful home. It's thoughtfully arranged for everyday life, with an integrated dishwasher and fridge-freezer, along with space for a washing machine and tumble dryer.
Three Bedrooms and a Beautiful New Bathroom
Head upstairs and you'll find three bedrooms and the family bathroom.
The main bedroom benefits from generous built-in wardrobes, providing plenty of useful storage without taking up valuable floor space. The third bedroom also makes clever use of its space, with a small fitted wardrobe and additional storage above the bed.
And then there's the bathroom...
Completely remodelled in 2026, it's a lovely blend of traditional character and contemporary comfort.
The freestanding enamelled bathtub feels perfectly at home in a Victorian property and is just the place for a long, candlelit soak at the end of a busy day. There's also a separate modern shower for those mornings when life doesn't allow quite so much time for indulgence!
A Beautiful South-Facing Garden
If you love spending time outdoors, we think you're going to fall for this garden.
Enjoying a sunny southerly aspect, it's a wonderfully established and colourful space that has clearly received just as much love and attention as the house itself.
The main patio provides a lovely spot for alfresco dining, a morning coffee in the sunshine or simply unwinding with a glass of something nice after a long day.
Beyond the patio, the garden is filled with established flower beds, mature shrubs and trees, creating a beautiful mixture of colour, greenery and natural privacy. There's something rather special about a garden that's been nurtured over so many years - and this one has a lovely, settled feel that's difficult to recreate from scratch.
There's a small brick outbuilding beside the main patio, while towards the rear of the garden you'll find a further gravelled seating area and a generously sized shed, offering useful additional storage or perhaps space for a hobby or two.
And the nicest thing? All that hard work has already been done. This is a garden you can simply move into, enjoy and make your own.
A Home to Fall in Love With
Homes like this have a certain something that's difficult to put into words. Perhaps it's the amazing location, the fabulous fireplaces, the beautiful garden or simply the feeling of warmth that's been created over three decades of ownership.
Whatever it is, this is a home with genuine character, thoughtful modern improvements and plenty to offer its next owners.
We'd love to show you around.
