Church Farm is a most impressive detached character property situated in a delightful rural location affording wonderful far reaching views across surrounding open countryside.

It is evident that little expense has been spared with acute attention to detail being paid to all aspects with high quality fittings throughout including solid oak double glazed windows, solid oak flooring, luxury fitted bathrooms and a bespoke Neptune kitchen.

An inner hall leads to three double bedrooms, all with en suite bath/shower rooms. On the first floor there is a master suite with a walk in dressing room and a spacious en suite shower room. One of the great strengths of Church Farm is its setting, surrounded by open countryside and enjoying fine views toward the Malvern Hills. The property is approached by a long gravelled driveway providing ample off road parking and in turn leads to a four bay CARPORT. There are further outbuildings including a DUTCH BARN and an OPEN BARN, both offering considerable potential (subject to the necessary consents being sought).
