The Umbrella House (Toll House)

Wellington, Telford, TF6

Tenure: Freehold

A delightful and characterful Grade II Listed former Toll House offering exceptional potential, complemented by a generous garden.

The Property
Believed to date back to 1835 and reputedly designed by the renowned engineer Thomas Telford, this unique property—also known as The Umbrella House or The Round House—boasts rich historical charm. Constructed predominantly of brick and stone, with some rendered sections beneath a slate roof, this period home benefits from later additions while retaining its original character.

The Toll House is in need of some updating but was until recently a lived-in residence, offering a fantastic opportunity for refurbishment.

The interior features a spacious kitchen/breakfast room fitted with a range of units and offering access to both the second bedroom and the main reception room. The bathroom includes a bath with shower attachment. The reception room enjoys the warmth of a working fireplace and leads to the principal bedroom, which benefits from an adjoining shower room.

Outside
The property enjoys an exceptionally large rear garden, laid mostly to lawn and interspersed with mature shrubs and trees. There is also a substantial parking area. The house is accessed via a quiet lane off the historic Roman road connecting Shrewsbury and Telford.

Location
Ideally located just a short distance from the M54 and Telford, The Toll House offers convenient access to a full range of amenities, services, and shopping facilities in the town. Telford railway station is nearby, providing regular services to Birmingham and beyond, making this an excellent base for commuters.
