DESCRIPTION
Here is a unique opportunity to acquire an iconic Landmark property and a real piece of Bewdley history; namely the towns striking former Police Station which still served as such right up until 2013.Historic Bewdley is an acutely sought after place to live and with special reason. It takes its name from the French words \"Beau Lieu\" meaning \"Beautiful Place\" and has been described as the \"most perfect small Georgian town in Worcestershire\".This vibrant town is packed with plentiful amenities including a wealth of restaurants/character public houses and is built on the banks of the River Severn, offering a rich and scenic landscape which draws visitors from far and wide the whole year round.In general terms a great deal of similar properties within this price bracket that are in, or around, the town centre are characterised by the fact that, often, they do not have parking or are very close to the road, or both, and with this in mind the amenity on offer here is a rare and very valuable bonus.The property itself was purpose built as a Police Station with an obvious pre-requisite to stand out and it does just that, having a remarkable character all of it's own and displaying a timeless classical style façade incorporating a distinctive pediment feature which really draws the eye, having an original diamond shaped window. The property enjoys a prime position right in the centre of Historic Bewdley and has been carefully refurbished and re-equipped using high quality fitments befitting of its proud nature and style.Given its important location and heritage then suffice to say that the build quality is inherently good as would be the case with high profile ex-Public Sector buildings in general. The fine family home of today enjoys a prime position right in the centre of Historic Bewdley and has been carefully refurbished and re-equipped using high quality fitments befitting of it's proud nature and style creating a 'new home' feel. The centre-piece is a magnificent 23ft dining kitchen with granite worktops which simply cannot fail to impress. The work also includes a full re-wire and new central heating system complete with Combination boiler.This ideal family home is offered for sale with the distinct advantage of no upward chain and affords extremely well presented gas centrally heated accommodation to comprise:
