Location & Description
The property enjoys a lovely setting in a very convenient position on the outskirts of the well served village of Leigh Sinton where local amenities include an excellent village stores, a popular Pub and Primary School. The larger towns of Malvern (approx. 3 miles), Worcester (approx 6 miles) and Hereford (approx. 16 miles) are all within easy reach. There are mainline railway stations at all three of these centres and Junction 7 of the M5 motorway at Worcester is about fifteen minutes away by car. Situated on the Worcestershire border with Herefordshire, Leigh Sinton is surrounded by unspoilt countryside and is within immediate striking distance of many walks and landmarks including the renowned Worcestershire Way, the Severn Valley and the Malvern Hills.
Sinton Meadow was originally constructed in the 1950's although it has been the subject of extension and alteration over the years. It is now in need of some general updating and refurbishment and is ideal for buyers looking for an opportunity to create a fine long term, contemporary family home. It enjoys a lovely setting in large mature, landscaped grounds with uninterrupted views across the surrounding countryside and towards the Malvern Hills in the distance.
The accommodation is on three floors. At ground level there is a reception hall, cloakroom with WC, a lounge, separate dining room, kitchen, a family/living room and utility room. On the first floor a landing leads to four principal bedrooms, one of which has its own en-suite bathroom. There is also a separate family bathroom and an office that can double as a fifth bedroom when needed. A stairwell leads to the second floor where there is a large studio/attic room. The house has gas fired central heating and double glazed windows.
Outside a tarmac driveway provides extensive private parking and leads to a double garage, behind which there is a large two bay stables, currently in use for the storage of garden equipment and ideal as a workshop or for buyers with hobbies. There is also a greenhouse.

The driveway is flanked to each side by large areas of level lawns, interspersed with several mature trees (including a particularly impressive weeping Silver Birch), well established shrubs and herbaceous borders. The main facade of the house supports a mature and very colourful Wisteria. The front garden enjoys excellent privacy, enclosed as it is by mature hedging.

The rear garden is again laid to a large level lawn, interspersed with mature ornamental and fruit trees, an original well/ornamental pond, shrubs and borders. To one side of the house there is a trellised archway supporting mature climbers and Roses. As with the front garden the rear boundaries are fenced and hedged thus ensuring privacy. The rear garden looks out over open farmland. The rear garden extends for a short distance beyond the boundary hedge and fence.
