House For Sale £800,000
Nestled in the picturesque village of Arley, Worcestershire, this captivating semi-detached country cottage embodies rural charm, providing idyllic living within its breathtaking 4-acre grounds that stretch across the scenic Severn Valley, offering stunning countryside views from every angle. Accessed via a private lane, the setting is enchanting, enhanced by a wooded copse that adds to the tranquillity of the surroundings. This family home boasts quintessential features and is an ideal haven for horse lovers or those wishing to embrace ‘the good life.’.
The cottage exudes a warm ambiance with oil-fired central heating, new windows installed in 2023, featuring three/four bedrooms adorned with stripped wooden flooring, original beams, and charming fireplaces. The entrance hall welcomes you with a vaulted ceiling, wooden beams, and slate tile flooring. The lounge radiates coziness with slate-tiled flooring, a multi-fuel stove, and French-style doors leading to a delightful courtyard.
The open-plan kitchen/dining area is an inviting space with stripped wooden flooring and an exposed brick inglenook fireplace housing a log burner.
The kitchen seamlessly flows from the dining area, showcasing a Belfast sink, Aga (available by separate negotiation) and cottage-style units with complementary worktops. A utility room with a further Belfast sink and rear lobby add practicality, while the shower room features a double shower cubicle and an elegant, vaulted ceiling. Adjacent to the lobby, the boot room serves as an ideal space for post-country walk attire and offers versatile use, potentially as a downstairs bedroom.
Upstairs, the landing leads to three charming double bedrooms, each boasting stunning views and original features. The family bathroom is a sanctuary with stripped wooden flooring, a roll-top bath, high-level W.C., and a Victorian antique washstand.
Outside, the rear garden is a haven with a sizable patio area, large decking area with outdoor pizza oven both perfect for enjoying views and sunsets across the paddocks on summer evenings or for entertaining family or friends. An added benefit is the fully insulated purpose designed outside office/cinema room installed in 2022 with electricity and underfloor heating again with patio doors and scenic views over the paddocks. Further gardens at the rear consists of a small orchard with mature pear, apple and plum trees. The front garden is equally delightful with well-maintained cottage-style planting beds. The extensive grounds, totalling four acres, offer equestrian potential with four stables, a tack room, and level paddocks surrounded by new post and rail fencing. The owner ensures the land quality by resting it every winter, providing excellent grazing whilst the surrounding lanes provide perfect hacking or cycling.
The property is complemented by a garage, ample parking with an EV charger, and a well maintained private wood spanning approximately 1 acre providing the perfect opportunity for you to manage your own log stores. A hidden gem is the additional gardens consisting of a tiki bar that also currently hosts a heated above-ground swimming pool, offering a unique and delightful addition with panoramic countryside views.
The owners describe this cottage as being a happy home that has been the perfect place for entertaining, commuting to Birmingham and Worcestershire and enjoying the very best of country living.
