On the banks of the River Severn in picturesque Shropshire, this utterly charming 2-bedroom cottage, boathouse holiday let, and canoe hire business offers a unique opportunity to live and work within historic Ironbridge Gorge, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Recognised as the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution, Ironbridge is now a tranquil tourist destination centred around Abraham Darby’s world-famous Iron Bridge, a wonder of engineering innovation and this delightful Georgian town’s namesake. Ironbridge is just minutes away from bustling Telford, a favoured destination for locals and tourists alike, boasting a shopping centre, retail parks, large supermarkets, a rail station, and a motorway junction. The cottage itself is Grade-II listed, dating back to the 1850s and imbued with the extraordinary character and heritage of this very special location. Offering enchanting views of the Iron Bridge and the river that shaped the history of the town, the property’s exceptional location makes it an ideal choice for holiday accommodation or as a cozy permanent residence. Featuring an entrance porch leading onto a cosy yet spacious lounge, arranged around an atmospheric open fireplace, the property boasts a well-appointed breakfast kitchen with Rayburn at the rear. Upstairs, the master bedroom includes a delightful fireplace with wood-burner and walk-in wardrobe off, alternatively ideal as a home office. The bathroom is attractive and generously proportioned, and the property benefits from a second ample double bedroom within the converted loft space. A substantial patio garden is provided at the front with a further yard area to the rear, and the cottages can apply for permits to a conveniently situated car park for a low annual cost, with additional parking available at the front. The property is due to be transferred from a septic tank system to mains sewage in 2024, provided by Severn Trent.
Constructed in the 1970s, The Boathouse is a self-contained, 2-bedroom holiday cottage, available fully furnished with bookings already in place for next year’s tourist season. Offering space for six, the property is ideal for fishing or boating groups, having three concrete moorings and fishing rights directly to the rear. With a car park to the front and a paved riverside terrace, visitors can make use of the barbeque, pizza oven, and outdoor fireplace. To the side of The Boathouse, a paved area offers facilities for the included canoe-hire business, including storage, a refreshments hut, and seating for guests. The business comes with around 60 vessels in a variety of sizes, all necessary safety equipment, two large trailers, mooring rights, and transitional assistance from the current owner.
