Energy Rating: E. STOURPORT OFFICE 01299 822060.


DESCRIPTION
Melbury House is set within an acutely sought after North Worcestershire location within the Hamlet of Torton on the fringe of Historic Hartlebury; an ancient Conservation Village, especially known for its Mediaeval Castle which was formerly home to the Bishop of Worcester for more than 1000 years. Hartlebury is the most northerly Parish in the district of Wychavon and borders Kidderminster and Stourport in the Wyre Forest as well as the Parishes of Elmley Lovatt and Ombersley to the South. The Village is well watched by regular commuters given its ease of access to surrounding major towns and Motorway Links. In particular there is very swift access to Junction 6 of the M5, which is about 10 miles to the south, as is the Cathedral City of Worcester, offering a wealth of employment opportunities, extensive shopping and excellent schools. Hartlebury Village itself has a range of amenities including some excellent traditional Pubs, Village Store and a Railway Station.So frequently sought but so very rarely found! We are forever asked for highly accessible country properties with land exactly such as this providing the opportunity to create luxury contemporary living hand in glove with the potential - subject to requisite consents - for the keeping of recreational horses and here it is!Melbury House is an intriguing freehold detached country house of unique character set within an outstanding rural location.
