Description

This is a rare chance to purchase a detached property conveniently close to the town centre. This extremely interesting and highly unique property comprises two period conversions, sympathetically brought together via a modern cottage-style addition.

The property has an attractive kerbside appeal and sits well back from the roadside on a gated corner plot. The end position affords an excellent mix of walled gardens and ample parking for multiple vehicles, further enhanced by a double garage, a valuable commodity this close to the centre of town. The garage features a versatile room above, which could be used as a fourth bedroom or office. Together, these could be combined to form a self-contained annexe, ideal for dependent relatives or as additional income via a holiday let. With the town attracting many visitors throughout the year, a holiday let in this location has excellent potential to generate a healthy return.

The Approach
The Old Coach Houses is approached from Westbourne Street via double wrought iron gates leading to a sweeping, block-paved parking area that can accommodate at least three cars. The double garage is positioned at right angles to the main property and accessed via double wooden doors.

The Garage
The garage’s features include power, lighting, and a useful inspection pit, ideal for those who love tinkering with classic cars. An external wrought iron staircase at the side of the garage provides access to the room above, which is ideal as an office or a bedroom for older children or guests. This extremely spacious room has two skylights and benefits from an adjoining cloakroom, which could be converted into an en-suite. With the garage underneath, this offers a range of options for conversion to a self-contained wing, subject to securing any relevant permissions.

The Living Room
Once through the front door of the main property, one is greeted by an inviting reception hallway with stairs rising to the first floor and doors flowing nicely to the living room. The characterful living room is full of charming period details, centred around a brick fireplace with a gas stove and featuring exposed beams, wall lights, multi-aspect windows and French doors leading out to the garden.

The Kitchen and Dining Room
To the left-hand side of the hallway, a dining room flows nicely onto the adjoining kitchen via a square archway. The dining room has dual aspect windows and traditional parquet flooring, while the kitchen boasts matching wall and base units, dual aspect windows, space and plumbing for appliances, a wall-mounted combination boiler and a stable door leading to the outside.

The Master Suite
Upstairs comprises three double bedrooms and a family bathroom, all of which are accessed via the landing, which has exposed beams and a loft hatch. The spacious master bedroom has lovely characterful timbers and benefits from extensive fitted wardrobe space, two Velux skylights and an en-suite shower room. The accompanying en-suite features a vanity unit with a sink and storage, a shower cubicle, a skylight and a low-level WC.

Bedrooms Two and Three
The remaining double bedrooms boast plenty of room for a full-size bed, dresser, and other essential furnishings, both serviced by the family bathroom.

The Bathroom
Completing this level is this well-appointed family bathroom, which has exposed beams, a panelled bath, a skylight, a pedestal washbasin and a low-level WC.

The Garden
A pleasant walled garden rounds things off beautifully, providing this versatile property with user-friendly outside space at the front that is secure, private and easy to maintain. A raised section of lawn is screened by mature hedging and a variety of trees such as apple and pear.

Location

This detached cottage-style property is beautifully positioned within a gated and walled plot on the corner of Westbourne Street, a charming road steeped in history and incredibly well placed for accessing everything Bewdley has to offer. If you seek a tranquil spot removed from the busier parts of town, there is no better location and unlike many residences central to the town, this property offers not only plentiful parking but also a double garage and pleasant garden space.

A short walk from the property is the stunning riverside, providing a beautiful spot to sit and enjoy the River Severn as it meanders towards Worcester and Bridgnorth. For those who love getting outdoors, the river is one of many fantastic places to explore. England’s largest wooded nature reserve, the Wyre Forest, borders Bewdley and has a myriad of trails for walking, cycling and horse riding.

The thriving town centre is around 0.4 miles away and offers much
to the local resident, including a variety of interesting shops plus an array of pubs and waterfront eateries. Residents can also engage in numerous social activities, including joining the local cricket club, bowling green, or tennis club. Families with children will delight in the fact that primary and senior schools are both situated at the end of Stourport Road, once again just a short walk from the property.

Services

Mains gas, electricity, water and drainage. Security alarm system. Broadband is available at this property.

Fees

Reservation Fee - refundable on exchange

A reservation fee, refundable on exchange, is payable prior to the issue of the Memorandum of Sale and after which the property may be marked as Sold Subject to Contract. The fee will be reimbursed upon the successful Exchange of Contracts.

The fee will be retained by Andrew Grant in the event that you the buyer withdraws from the purchase or does not Exchange within 6 months of the fee being received other than for one or more of the following reasons:

1. Any significant material issues highlighted in a survey that were not evident or drawn to the attention of you the buyer prior to the Memorandum of Sale being issued.
2. Serious and material defect in the seller’s legal title.
3. Local search revealing a matter that has a material adverse effect on the market value of the property that was previously undeclared and not in the public domain.
4. The vendor withdrawing the property from sale.

The reservation fee, equivalent to 0.5% of the accepted offer, is payable upon acceptance by the vendor of an offer from a buyer and a positive completion of an assessment of the buyer’s financial status and ability to proceed.

Should a buyer’s financial position regarding the funding of the property prove to be fundamentally different from that declared by the buyer when the Memorandum of Sale was completed, then the Vendor has the right to withdraw from the sale and the reservation fee retained. For example, where the buyer declares themselves as a cash buyer but are in fact relying on an unsecured sale of their property.

Once the reservation fee has been paid, any renegotiation of the price stated in the memorandum of sale for any reason other than those covered in points 1 to 3 above will lead to the reservation fee being retained. A further fee will be levied on any subsequent reduced offer that is accepted by the vendor. This further fee will be subject to the same conditions that prevail for all reservation fees outlined above.
