Location & Description:
4 Rectory Road enjoys a convenient location less than a mile from the bustling and historic riverside town of Upton upon Severn where there is an excellent range of amenities including numerous shops, several public houses and restaurants, churches, a supermarket, schooling for all ages and the famous riverside marina.
Transport communications are well catered for. Junction 1 of the M50 motorway is only about three miles distant and there are mainline railway stations in the city of Worcester (eleven miles) and the cultural centre of Great Malvern (seven miles).
Built in the 1950's, 4 Rectory Road is a traditional detached family house. In recent years it has been the subject of complete transformation, extension and refurbishment. It now offers much larger than average and beautifully presented accommodation with a whole host of features including double glazed windows and gas fired central heating.
The ground floor is particularly striking. A large and attractive entrance hall opens into a very generous living room and well equipped kitchen, off which there is a cloakroom and WC and a utility room. At the rear of the house and accessed from both the kitchen and living room is a very high quality and extremely large conservatory that doubles as a family room and also leads to a glazed study/office. On the first floor a landing leads to three good size bedrooms and a bathroom with separate shower cubicle. There is also a separate WC.
Outside, a driveway provides parking for several vehicles and leads to the much larger than average garage. The lovely south and west facing garden is another particularly strong feature. It is beautifully landscaped to provide colour, variety and interest throughout the year. It is also level, mainly laid to lawn with large areas of patio and terracing and has a strong focal point which is an ornamental pond. Within the garden there is a general store, two greenhouses and a small implement shed.
From this lovely garden there are fine rural views across adjacent countryside.
