A Georgian Masterpiece in the Heart of Worcester

A house steeped in history Step into Edgar House and you are immediately immersed in Georgian charm. High ceilings, panelled walls and original fireplaces whisper of its heritage, while wide windows frame views of the surrounding architecture, most notably Edgar Tower and the majestic Worcester Cathedral. This is a home built for entertaining and for living well. The sitting room, with its elegant panelling and outlook towards the cathedral, is a space of quiet grandeur and the owners’ favourite room. Four generous reception rooms provide flexibility for dining, relaxing, or working from home, each one offering its own character.

Blending period detail with modern comfort While the house proudly holds its eighteenth century character, it has been enhanced in ways that respect its history. A bespoke Austin Matthews kitchen, with quartzite worktops and a traditional Aga cooker, forms the heart of the home. Both bathrooms have been tastefully updated, the rear roof renewed, and the interiors completely redecorated. A Nest smart heating system now controls the efficient mains gas central heating, supported by recently replaced radiators. These careful upgrades ensure Edgar House remains comfortable and efficient, without losing its timeless appeal.

Expansive accommodation across four floors The scale of Edgar House sets it apart. On the upper levels, four double bedrooms provide ample family accommodation, each with characterful period proportions. The first floor features a useful room, which is currently used as a home gym but would also make a great artist’s studio or hobbies room. The loft area includes a games room and office space
