Property description

An outstanding, spacious detached family home of immense character originally built in 1883 as part of the Abberley Hall Estate, offering immaculately presented accommodation standing in generous grounds, set in the heart of rural Worcestershire. Sympathetically extended and enhanced by the current owners, Highfields enjoys stunning views and early viewing is highly recommended.

The property comprises four double bedrooms, the master offering en suite, dressing room and its own private balcony with captivating views. Three further bedrooms, one with en suite, and a separate family bathroom. Modern fitted kitchen incorporating the character of the home, with walk-in pantry and utility room. Living room, breakfast room, TV/library room, dining room, and study. Heated indoor swimming pool with adjoining changing room and shower (suitable for conversion to self-contained annex); ground floor cloakroom, workshop/storeroom, detached garage and traditional brick built garden shed, all benefiting from Solar Panel electricity generation.

Highfields is situated in Shelsley Kings on the outskirts of the popular villages of Great Witley and Abberley enjoying an elevated position with quite outstanding views across the Teme Valley to the south and west.

Shelsley Kings has very good communications with nearby centres including the Cathedral City of Worcester 14 miles to the south east and Junctions 5 & 6 of the M5 motorway. Local facilities include a well-stocked Post Office and General Stores, Doctor's Surgery, Filling Station/store together with a small supermarket in nearby Abberley. The property lies in the school catchment area of Great Witley, Abberley, The Chantry at Martley and the renowned Abberley Hall Preparatory School; access to which is via the Worcestershire Way Strategic Footpath which is within close proximity to Highfields.

The property is constructed of brick elevations beneath a tiled roof with half-timbered façade to the first floor. It is approached via a private stoned driveway which sweeps through shaped lawns to a generous parking area laid out in block paving to the front. There are no immediate neighbours and the property adjoins open farmland with outstanding views across the Teme Valley, Rural Worcestershire, South Shropshire, Herefordshire, and as far as the Welsh borders.

The majority of the windows are UPVC, double glazed with leaded lights which have been sympathetically designed to complement the style of the property. Solar PV electricity generating panels were fitted eighteen months ago offering substantial savings to electricity costs and outside are sensor operated security lights whilst the interior benefits from a security system.
