A wide brick opening connects the kitchen to the dining room, offering an easy flow while keeping the spaces distinct.

It works well as a central hub within the ground floor layout.

Brick built to low level with glazed elevations and a pitched roof, the room is heated and works comfortably as a sitting area or garden room. Double doors open out to the garden, making this a practical extension of the ground floor that supports relaxed use throughout the year.

The entrance hall and cloakroom
The entrance hall provides a welcoming arrival and sets the character for the ground floor, with a staircase to the first floor, useful under-stairs storage, an arched front window and 10mm oak flooring with exposed stonework. Positioned off the hall, the cloakroom is fitted with a WC and wash hand basin within a streamlined vanity unit, finished with fully tiled walls, offering a practical and discreet facility conveniently located for guests.

The primary bedroom
Located on the first floor, the primary bedroom is an impressive and characterful space with a striking vaulted ceiling, exposed timber trusses and a multi fuel stove that together define the room.

Accessed from the primary bedroom, the en suite is a well-proportioned space with a sloping ceiling and exposed timbers. A freestanding bath, pedestal basin and WC sit on a raised timber platform, with roof glazing and a feature window providing natural light and privacy. The generous floor area allows the room to function as a full bathroom rather than a compact en suite. This enhances the sense of a well-considered and comfortable principal suite.

A vaulted ceiling with exposed beams adds depth and character while maintaining a practical and easily furnished footprint.

A window provides an outlook across the grounds, supporting a calm and productive environment.

Jack and Jill bathroom
The Jack and Jill bathroom is positioned on the first floor and is arranged to serve the adjacent bedrooms with ease. Fitted with a walk in shower enclosure, WC and wash basin set within a vanity unit, the room offers a practical and well organised layout. Tiled walls and flooring provide a durable finish suited to shared use. Dual access enhances day to day convenience while maintaining a clear separation between sleeping accommodation and bathroom space.

The garden
The garden sits to the rear of the house and is arranged as a series of informal spaces that combine lawn, established planting and hard landscaping, with open views extending towards the Malvern Hills. Paved pathways lead out from the conservatory to seating areas and continue through the garden, creating a natural flow between the house and its surroundings. Mature trees and hedging provide structure and privacy, while planted borders and specimen trees add seasonal interest.

A timber pergola offers a focal point within the garden, alongside a greenhouse and a detached timber outbuilding. The lawned areas are well proportioned and framed by planting, giving the garden a settled and enclosed feel while still enjoying wider countryside views. Overall, it is a varied and characterful outdoor space that complements the house and offers flexibility for both practical use and quiet enjoyment.

The detached timber outbuilding
The detached timber outbuilding provides a highly versatile additional space. Fully insulated to the roof and floor and equipped with electrics and water, it is well suited to comfortable year round use. The interior lends itself particularly well to use as a home office, studio or hobby room, offering useful separation from the main house while remaining easily accessible. Its practical layout and services make it a valuable complement to the main accommodation.

The driveway and parking
The property is approached via a brick-paved driveway that passes through a covered opening and opens into a generous central courtyard. This arrangement creates a defined sense of arrival while providing excellent practicality, with ample space for turning and off-road parking for at least five vehicles.
