Property description
This beautiful PERIOD HOME has been extremely well maintained by the present owners and would make an IDEAL FIRST TIME BUY or BUY TO LET INVESTMENT due to its pristine condition. In addition to those already mentioned there are further features which add to the lovely period style including BESPOKE WINDOW SHUTTERS to the front elevation and EXPOSED WOOD FLOORING in the dining room, guest bedroom and bathroom. The house has been RE-WIRED, has Gas CH with a COMBINATION BOILER and all the ground floor interior doors have been recently replaced but retaining the period style and the upstairs has the ORIGINAL DOORS & ORIGINAL HANDLES/LOCKS. There is also PLANNING PERMISSION FOR A REAR EXTENSION (to extend the kitchen and replace the outhouse). The property really must be seen to appreciate what it has to offer.
The property is located within the Hampton area of Evesham within easy reach of Evesham town centre, lovely riverside and countryside walks and local shops which include a Post Office, Convenience Store, a thriving Fruit & Vegetable shop and a Fish & Chip shop. Hampton is also ideal for anyone working in Pershore, Worcester or Cheltenham.
