Property description
Located close to The Green, on the corner of Bretforton Road and Green Close, this property is an ideal house for anyone requiring an affordable village property with surprisingly spacious accommodation. Honeybourne itself benefits from a MAINLINE RAILWAY STATION, which runs between Malvern and Worcester through Oxford to London Paddington and has a thriving community feel with 2 EXCELLENT PUBS (The Gate, which has been recently refurbished and can hold small private functions, and the 13th Century Thatched Tavern which hosts summer fêtes and themed evenings, including curry quiz nights) plus there is a Youth Club, Honeybourne First School, Honeybees Nursery, Village Hall, a good Fish and Chip shop, a good Chinese takeaway and convenience store.
This property is set back from the road and footpath by a front garden enclosed by a low timber fence and a pedestrian gate at the front of the house opens to steps leading down to the garden which has a central bed planted with a variety of flowering plants, perennials, spring bulbs and a central ornamental plum tree. There are raised Cotswold dry stone walled borders planted with lavender, roses, perennials and a specimen Acer tree. A paved pathway leads around the central bed and to the side of the house where a decorative wrought iron pedestrian gate leads to the side garden and rear of the property. The paved pathway leads to a COVERED STORM CANOPY with pitched and tiled roof and exterior carriage light to the side with trellis planted with CLIMBING ROSES.
