House For Sale £550,000
The ideal renovation opportunity - a 200 year old property with separate 2-bedroom apartment situated on the original toll road between Worcester and Birmingham.
Description
Offered to the market as it is, this quirky 200-year-old property is in need of renovation, attention and some imagination. The potential this house has is immense and once renovated, keeping some of the original period features and blending them with contemporary styling, this property would become a one-of-a-kind family home.
The main accommodation has many wonderful period features such as the fireplaces in the hallway and front reception room and exposed wooden beams throughout. Reorganisation of the layout may be necessary to improve the functionality and to fully make use of the extensive space which this property has in handfuls.
Upstairs there is a main bathroom, storage cupboard and four bedrooms, three of which are doubles, and the master with an ensuite. Again, carefully thought-out renovation and redecoration would transform the space into a stylish modern home with sympathetically restored period features nodding to the property's legacy.
Outside
The generously sized rear garden can be accessed via the porch or backdoor located halfway up the staircase, and established trees and hedging create a real sense of privacy.
