DESCRIPTION
Number 101 Areley Common is a most attractive white washed bungalow with open views set within the acutely sought after area of Areley Kings, being found on the Worcester side of Stourport. This forever popular area lies over the river and just one mile south west of Stourport town centre, which offers a range of shopping, leisure and recreational facilities. Areley Kings still remains very much a \‘village style\‘ community with amenities including two Public Houses, a Convenience Store, Post Office, Pharmacy, Newsagents, modern community village hall and a character Grade II Listed Church, namely St. Bartholomews which has an ancient history spanning 800 years.The property stands particularly well on a very broad low maintenance plot providing plenty of parking and ideal to accommodate a caravan or small boat, etc.Although requiring a degree of up-grading by modern tastes, the very nature of this bungalow will surely reward time, care and investment and, in the right hands, what an amazing home it could be!. Even remotely similar bungalow properties with this degree of potential and parking amenity would be difficult to find in the Areley Kings area and as such, a rare opportunity is offered. The bungalow also has a nice civic connection to the village having been built in the early 1930\‘s to accommodate the community nurse and the sellers have the original architectural drawing framed whereby it is referred to as \‘The Nurses Cottage\‘ and dated 1933. Another attractive traditional feature is the red gas fired Rayburn Nouvelle cooker which also serves the property\‘s central heating and hot water requirements.The accommodation comprises:-
