Property description

Constructed in 1936, this beautifully presented and unique property has been extended to provide ideal SPACIOUS ACCOMMODATION for family living and the STUNNING AND STYLISH NEW KITCHEN has GRANITE WORKTOPS and space for separate island unit (current model not included in the sale).  Most of the interior doors are original 1930s, some with original 1930s door handles and the power sockets and period style light switches are polished chrome. The combination of period features and the present owners' interior design has created a contemporary yet relaxing country style so INTERIOR VIEWING IS ESSENTIAL to appreciate the size and quality of the property.

The house is located close to Bengeworth Church and within walking distance of local shops and the increasingly popular Regal Cinema. The town centre and good local schools are also within easy reach, as is Evesham bypass providing good road links to the North and South therefore is ideal for anyone commuting.
