Property description

This lovely family home already benefits from a good sized single storey extension, carried out by the previous owner, and has SCOPE FOR FURTHER EXTENSION over the lounge and garage, subject to planning consent. The 3 reception rooms, including the conservatory, make the house ideal for family parties and the well designed and beautifully maintained rear garden is a superb space for being split into areas for children\‘s play, al fresco dining, fruit and vegetable/herb gardening or even keeping poultry.

Offenham itself is a large rural village on a no-through road, 3 miles North-East of Evesham, beside the River Avon, and is well known in the area for its market gardening. It benefits from a Post Office/Store and Village Hall, which hosts a wide range of clubs and groups for all ages, from floral groups to Zumba and toddler and youth groups. There are also thriving cricket and football clubs and a riverside pub (The Bridge Inn) serving good food and The Fish and Anchor just 1.3 miles away. Offenham Church is central to the village which is also noted for its 64ft maypole, the tallest of only six permanent maypoles remaining in England, where on May Day there is maypole dancing and morris dancing.
