About this property
An Extremely Well Presented and Refurbished Three Bedroom Detached Bungalow with a Rather Special Railway-Side Setting
A wonderful opportunity to acquire a detached bungalow, occupying a generous plot with the historic Severn Valley Railway providing a truly delightful backdrop to the rear garden.
There are some properties that offer a little something out of the ordinary, and this is certainly one of them. Imagine relaxing in your garden as a magnificent heritage steam train gently chugs past, exchanging a friendly wave with its passengers. It is a charming reminder of a bygone era and a feature that makes this particular home rather special.
Situated within Sandbourne Drive, an established cul-de-sac of individual houses and bungalows, this delightful three bedroom detached bungalow has undergone a programme of refurbishment and improvement, resulting in a home that is beautifully presented, thoughtfully finished and ready to enjoy from the moment you move in.
Having sold the property ourselves only last year, we know just how much care and attention has been invested in creating this lovely home. Regrettably, an unforeseen change in the owners' health circumstances has prompted a much earlier move than originally anticipated, presenting an opportunity for another purchaser to enjoy the benefits of their considerable improvements.
The accommodation is both practical and welcoming, beginning with an entrance porch leading through to a cloakroom and inner hallway. The kitchen has been upgraded, whilst the principal reception room provides a lovely space in which to relax or entertain, with French doors opening directly onto the rear garden. From here, the outlook towards the heritage railway provides a delightful talking point and an ever-changing scene throughout the seasons.
There are three bedrooms, offering flexibility for family, visiting guests or perhaps a home office, together with a well appointed bathroom featuring both a separate shower cubicle and bath, allowing the luxury of a leisurely soak or the convenience of a refreshing shower.
The refurbishment has been completed to a very good standard throughout, with particularly attractive tiled flooring extending across much of the accommodation, creating a smart, cohesive finish that is both stylish and practical.
Further benefits include double glazing, gas-fired central heating and a newly installed alarm system.
Outside: Space, Convenience and a Touch of Nostalgia
The bungalow occupies a spacious plot, with the considerable advantage of ample off-road parking and double garaging, a particularly appealing feature for those requiring secure parking, storage or additional space for hobbies.
To the rear, the garden provides an inviting setting for outdoor relaxation, with the historic Severn Valley Railway running directly beyond the boundary.
For railway enthusiasts, it is a dream location, but even for those with no particular interest in trains, there is something wonderfully nostalgic about the sight and sound of a heritage steam locomotive making its way through the Worcestershire countryside.
A cup of tea in the garden, the gentle rhythm of a passing train and a friendly wave to its passengers. Sometimes it is life's simplest pleasures that make a house feel like home.
A Convenient Bewdley Location
Sandbourne Drive is pleasantly situated off Stourport Road, within an established residential cul-de-sac offering a pleasing mixture of houses and bungalows.
The location combines the convenience of everyday amenities with excellent access to the surrounding countryside and road connections for those needing to commute.
The beautiful Georgian town of Bewdley lies approximately half a mile away, offering a relatively level walk for those able to enjoy it.
Renowned for its handsome architecture, independent shops, cafés, restaurants and welcoming atmosphere, Bewdley is a town of considerable character. The magnificent River Severn winds through its heart, whilst the surrounding countryside and nearby Wyre Forest offer wonderful opportunities for walking, exploring and enjoying the outdoors.
It is a location that allows you to enjoy the best of both worlds: The convenience of town living and the natural beauty of the Worcestershire countryside.
A Home Ready for Its Next Chapter
With the hard work already completed, this is a genuine turnkey property, ideal for purchasers seeking the comfort and convenience of single-storey living without the prospect of undertaking major improvements.
The combination of its beautifully refurbished interior, three bedrooms, generous plot, double garage and delightful railway-side position makes this a particularly appealing bungalow.
Offered for sale with no upward chain, allowing for a potentially straightforward purchase.
A lovely home, an enviable setting and a little piece of living railway history at the bottom of the garden.
Viewing is warmly recommended to appreciate everything this special property has to offer.
