An attractive and spacious semi detached Victorian cottage situated in this much sought after village.<br/><b>Situation</b>
Christmas Cottage is located in the popular village of Abbots Morton, one of Worcestershire's most picturesque villages made up of predominantly period black & white timber framed buildings. Surrounded by attractive rolling countryside, Abbots Morton is located towards the eastern fringe of Worcestershire, close to its border with Warwickshire. The area is extremely well served with the nearby villages of Inkberrow, Flyford Flavell and Radford which have an excellent range of local facilities including pubs, primary school, doctors and village stores. The local market towns of Alcester and Pershore have a wide range of shopping and leisure facilities and further afield at Worcester, Stratford upon- Avon and Birmingham. Much of the area around The Ridgeway is owned by the Ragley Estate, and the excellent award winning Hillers Farm Shop which sells local produce is only a 5 minute drive away. There are also plenty of excellent schools, to include Alcester Grammar School, King's School and rgs in Worcester, Malvern St. James and Bromsgrove School. For the commuter there is easy access to the M5 at Worcester, M40 to the east and M42 to the north providing routes to Birmingham in the north and London to the south. Trains run from Redditch into Birmingham and from Evesham with connections through to London.
