Description

This spacious detached family home features four double bedrooms and offers significant potential for renovation and development, subject to planning approval. With a generous footprint of approximately 154 square meters (1665 square feet), the property presents a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a highly desirable area of Lower Wick, Worcester. The property is set back from the road behind a lawned fore garden and benefits from a block-paved driveway that provides ample parking for multiple vehicles, in addition to a separate garage and store, both equipped with power and light. The welcoming entry porch leads into a sizable reception hall, which connects to various living spaces on the ground floor. The rear-facing living room features patio doors that open onto a patio seating area overlooking an expansive garden—a perfect setting for relaxation or entertaining. Complementing this space are a dedicated dining room and an additional reception room that can function as an office or family room, catering to diverse lifestyle needs. The ground floor also includes a practical kitchen, utility area, and downstairs cloakroom. Upstairs, the layout comprises four well-proportioned double bedrooms, with three offering built-in wardrobes for convenient storage. A family bathroom with both a bath and separate shower cubicle serves all bedrooms. Additionally, access to the loft provides further storage options. The impressive southwest-facing rear garden is characterized by its size and variety of established plants and trees, including a greenhouse for gardening enthusiasts. The large patio area is ideal for outdoor gatherings, with steps leading down to the flat expanse of lawn that extends towards Laugherne Brook. The property's location enhances its appeal; it enjoys proximity to Worcester city center with easy access to local amenities such as shopping and dining options. Educational facilities nearby include highly regarded primary schools like Pitmaston Primary School as well as secondary institutions including Christopher Whitehead Language College and The King’s School Worcester. Transport accessibility is another advantage of this home. The M5 motorway (Junction 7) is conveniently reachable, along with multiple national rail stations offering direct services to Birmingham, Oxford, London Paddington, and beyond. While the lower section of the garden near Laugherne Brook has been known to flood in the past during heavy rains, the house itself sits at an elevated position that has never experienced flooding. In summary, this property not only provides spacious accommodation but also represents an excellent investment opportunity with potential for future development enhancements—making it an ideal choice for those interested in creating their dream home in an enviable location.
