For Sale4 Bedroom Detached House in Vicarage Lane, Childswickham, Broadway, Worcestershire, WR12£1,200,000

A SUBSTANTIAL 4-BEDROOM CHARACHTER HOME WITH GENEROUS GARDENS OF APPROXIMATELY 1 ACRE, SITUATED AT THE END OF A QUIET LANE.<br/><br/>Tucked away at the end of a no-through lane in the historic heart of the village, Longacre is a most attractive and substantial detached period home, set within a generous plot of approximately one acre. This handsome red-brick property is beautifully framed by mature trees and cottage-style planting, creating a peaceful and private retreat that feels a world away - yet is moments from the village centre. The house is full of warmth and character, with exposed beams, feature fireplaces, and generous proportions throughout. It offers approximately 2,500sq/ft of elegant accommodation, blending classic rural charm with stylish modern finishes.<br/>The heart of the home is a recently upgraded bespoke kitchen/breakfast room, complete with a peninsula, new electric AGA, and painted cabinetry in heritage tones, with a separate utility room. The show-stopping drawing room stretches nearly 24 feet in length, flooded with natural light from dual-aspect windows, and centred around a wood-burning stove beneath a chunky timber beam. A spacious dining room, large entrance hall with cloakroom, and a snug (which could double as a fifth bedroom) complete the ground floor. Upstairs, there are four double bedrooms, including two with en suites, and a smartly appointed family bathroom. <br/><br/>The setting of Longacre is as special as the house itself, offering an exceptional degree of privacy and rural charm. A gravel driveway provides ample parking and leads to a detached outbuilding which incorporates two garages, a workshop, and useful ancillary space - ideal for hobbies, storage, or potential conversion (subject to any necessary consents). Directly adjacent to the house are beautifully tended formal gardens, with a wide expanse of lawn framed by mature planting, and a a paved terrace perfect for al fresco entertaining. <br/><br/>Beyond the formal gardens lies a productive vegetable area with raised beds, as well as a small paddock - offering scope for keeping a pony, chickens, or simply enjoying additional open space. The grounds extend in total to approximately one acre and back onto open countryside, with far-reaching views over fields and towards the nearby church spire. For those who enjoy walking, the property enjoys direct access to a public footpath, with idyllic countryside walks available right from the doorstep.<br/><br/>Childswickham sits between Bredon and the Cotswold Hills and its history can be traced back to Roman times. The village includes a Norman Church and a Public House. Nearby Broadway, often referred to as the "Jewel of the Cotswolds" offers a wide range of shops and services, whilst Evesham, Stratford-upon-Avon and Cheltenham are the main centres for the region. The latter is generally considered as having some of the best shopping outside London. There is a main line rail service to London Paddington from either Evesham or Moreton-in-Marsh and access to the M5 Junction 9 (Tewkesbury) is about 12 miles away. <br/><br/>PROPERTY INFORMATION: <br/><br/>Tenure: The property is freehold and vacant possession will be granted on completion.<br/><br/>Fixtures and Fittings: All items in the nature of fixtures and fittings described in these details will be included with the property.
