About this property

    Where Modern Comfort Meets the Romance of the Railway
    Two Double Bedrooms | Beautifully Updated Throughout | Triple-Glazed Conservatory | Refitted Kitchen & Shower Room | Private Garden | Wonderful Railway Views | Over 55s Retirement Development

    A Charming Home with a Rather Special Outlook
    There is something rather special about Stephenson Place and a wonderful example of why this established retirement development is so appealing.

    Beautifully cared for and thoughtfully modernised, this delightful two-bedroom home offers stylish, comfortable accommodation, with the added pleasure of a triple-glazed conservatory overlooking the garden to enjoy whatever the season. With a refitted kitchen, cloakroom and shower room, the improvements have already been taken care of, leaving its next owners free to settle in and simply enjoy their new surroundings. And then, of course, there is the view!

    Both double bedrooms enjoy a wonderful outlook towards the historic Severn Valley Railway bridge, where the sight of a steam locomotive crossing the magnificent arches provides a charming reminder of a bygone era. Imagine looking out of your bedroom window to see a steam train making its way from Bewdley Station towards Arley and onwards to Bridgnorth. It is a sight that never quite loses its magic, whether you are a lifelong railway enthusiast or simply someone who appreciates a little history and nostalgia.

    The name Stephenson Place could hardly be more fitting!

    A Home Designed for Comfortable Living
    Stepping through the entrance porch, you are welcomed into a comfortable reception room, complete with a useful storage cupboard. The refitted kitchen offers a fresh, modern space for everyday cooking, whilst the ground-floor cloakroom is particularly practical.

    One of this home's loveliest features is the triple-glazed conservatory, which provides an additional reception area and a delightful connection with the garden. Having heating, so whether enjoying breakfast in the morning sunshine, settling down with a good book or watching the garden change through the seasons, this is a room that adds something rather special to everyday living. Upstairs, there are two generously proportioned double bedrooms, both enjoying those wonderful views towards the railway bridge, together with a beautifully refitted shower room.

    Double glazing and gas-fired central heating provide comfort throughout the year.

    A Lovely Setting for a More Relaxed Lifestyle
    Stephenson Place is an attractive and established retirement development for those aged 55 and over, comprising a collection of 37 houses and apartments within beautifully maintained communal grounds.

    Mature planting, neatly tended lawns and attractive surroundings create a welcoming environment, whilst the property's own private garden provides somewhere to enjoy a little outdoor relaxation.

    It is an appealing balance of having your own home and garden, with the reassurance and companionship that an established retirement community can offer.

    Bewdley – A Town with So Much to Offer
    One of the many pleasures of living at Stephenson Place is its convenient position for enjoying everything that makes Bewdley such a wonderful place to call home. For those who are comfortably mobile, a level walk takes you to a nearby bus stop, a petrol station with a convenience store and two traditional public houses, all before you have even crossed the bridge over the River Severn into the heart of Bewdley! And what a lovely town awaits on the other side.

    Bewdley positively oozes charm, with its beautiful Georgian architecture, historic streets and picturesque riverside setting. Independent shops sit alongside welcoming cafés, restaurants and traditional pubs, offering plenty of opportunities to meet friends, enjoy a leisurely lunch or simply watch the world go by. But Bewdley is far more than just a pretty riverside town.

    There are excellent everyday amenities, including doctors, dentists, chemists and veterinary practices, together with the much-loved Bewdley Museum, which celebrates the town's fascinating history. St George's Hall is another local treasure, with its café and programme of events, including film nights, providing opportunities to enjoy an evening out without travelling far.

    There is always something happening in Bewdley, whether it is a community event, a stroll beside the river, a visit to the museum or simply enjoying the atmosphere of this vibrant Worcestershire town.

    It is a place where history is cherished, community still matters and there is plenty to enjoy at every stage of life.

    A Wonderful Place to Begin Your Next Chapter
    For anyone considering a move to a more manageable home, Stephenson Place offers an attractive combination of modern comforts, independent living and a truly charming location. This is a home that offers far more than simply somewhere to live.

    It offers the opportunity to enjoy a different pace of life, with the freedom to make the most of everything Bewdley has to offer.

    A home ready to enjoy, in a town full of life, with a little railway magic thrown in for good measure.

    Hayden Estates warmly recommends an early viewing to appreciate everything this lovely property has to offer.
