Location & Description

The property enjoys a convenient position approximately fifteen minutes on foot from the centre of Barnards Green where there is a full range of amenities including shops and banks, a Co-operative supermarket and takeaways. There is a more comprehensive choice of facilities in the cultural and historic town of Great Malvern just over a mile away. Here there are more shops and banks, a Waitrose supermarket, the renowned theatre and cinema complex and the Splash leisure pool and gymnasium. Transport communications are excellent. Junction 7 of the M5 motorway at Worcester and Junction 1 of the M50 south of Upton upon Severn are both within striking distance and there is a mainline railway station in Great Malvern. The property is also close to The Chase Secondary School, Malvern College and Malvern St James Girls School.

70 Wedderburn Road is a unique detached eco house constructed approximately fifteen years ago by the current owners who were keen to use materials and technology that would create an environmentally conscious house. The result is an extremely cosy and comfortable home that has very low running costs. The timber frame is packed with high levels of insulation. Solar panels generate renewable energy and the system benefits from the original Feed-in-Tariff (FIT) scheme, for which the property receives generous payments. A solar thermal system can be used to provide hot water. Access to the house is initially over a shared driveway which culminates in a good sized gravelled parking area to the front of the house which has an electric car charging point. The accommodation is flexible. On the ground floor an enclosed lobby leads to a small hall, off which there is a bedroom that doubles as a study, a library that can also double as a bedroom and which has a compact mezzanine level above, a bathroom, a lounge with multi-fuel stove, a well equipped kitchen/dining room and a utility/laundry room. On the first floor a spacious landing leads to the master bedroom with its own en-suite dressing room and WC. There is also an office which is currently not suitable as a bedroom but which could potentially be converted to fit this purpose (subject to planning consent). French doors from the lounge open onto a covered veranda which overlooks the pretty south facing rear garden which is mainly laid to lawn with well established shrub borders and enjoying a view of the hills. There is a good sized workshop to the rear of the garden and a log store to the side. Ground Floor
