There is also easy access into either Bromsgrove Town Centre or Barnt Green, offering access to a range of great local amenities including gp Surgeries, Dentists, Shops and a great range of local pubs and restaurants.

Description
An opportunity to purchase this delightful cottage, situated in a stunning position over looking private gardens, meadow and woodlands. A true haven for the local wildlife, the gardens are regularly frequented by Deer, Foxes and Badgers that are partial to a peanut butter sandwich.
Accessed via the front or gated driveway, the property welcomes you immediately with its charm and sense of space and light.
The stunning breakfast kitchen, has been carefully considered offering an array of built in appliances, set into dove grey cabinets which creates a superb space for entertaining, with beautiful views across the gardens. The adjacent utility/boot room opens into a covered storage area and guest WC. An spacious inner hallway adjoins the entrance lobby and sumptuous lounge featuring an exposed brick fireplace with wood burning stove and double doors that open onto the a covered veranda perfect for all year round wildlife spotting and as a summer entertainment space.
A further reception room lends itself perfectly for use as a snug/playroom. Stairs ascend to the first floor revealing a dual aspect double bedroom and en-suite shower room. This space, along with the snug/playroom, would be ideal for teenagers or elderly relatives, wishing for space and independence, as a personal door allows for this space to be self-contained from the main property.
The first floor accommodation enjoys three good size bedrooms, all of which boast the most beautiful open countryside views. The bedrooms are serviced by a modern bathroom with separate shower.
Outside
Externally, the gardens are brought to life with a huge array of established shrub and flowers. A well-considered entertainment patio extends from the lounge & snug.
Nestled amongst raised vegetable beds and large area of lawn a further seating area sits within a secluded position, ideal to catch the evening sun with a glass of wine. As the garden ascends, to the left there is a well-established wildlife pond, beautifully maintained meadow with mowed pathway (ideal for sledging in the winter months) with a wooded area to one side.
From the elevated position at the top of the garden, the views are truly breathtaking. Looking across the Worcestershire skyline, across to Malvern Hills and beyond.
