Summary

A historic home of rare and distinguished provenance, Penkridge Hall is a captivating Grade II* listed timber-framed country house of immense charm and architectural interest. Quietly nestled in a sheltered enclave between the Lawley and Caer Caradoc hills, the property occupies a supreme position within the heart of the South Shropshire countryside - an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, yet is less than 10 miles from the thriving and cosmopolitan town of Shrewsbury.

Understood to date from circa1590, this is no ordinary country house. Penkridge Hall is an example of English history, thought to be sited on the ruins of a 13th-century Knights Templar preceptory. Its documented provenance and extraordinary preservation offer something truly exceptional to the discerning buyer seeking heritage, soul and seclusion, with the benefit of modern living subtly and sensitively introduced.

Properties of this status, setting and authenticity rarely come to market. Penkridge Hall is not just a home, it is a legacy; an opportunity to acquire one of Shropshire's finest period houses.
