Hopton Lane, Alfrick, Worcester, Worcestershire, WR6

The Court is well laid out with the accommodation arranged over three floors. It is light and very spacious with extremely well-proportioned rooms throughout. There are grand fireplaces, decorative cornicing and large sash windows. The ground floor accommodation flows particularly well with impressive reception rooms that interconnect via the main hall.

Dividing the drawing room from the hall is a wide walkthrough with flanking fluted wooden columns. From the reception hall, the broad staircase leads up to the first and second floor accommodation. Opposite the staircase, double glass paned doors lead out to the front of the Court giving access to the gardens and grounds. The drawing room, library and dining room are all large well-proportioned rooms with handsome fireplaces.

The entrance hall is entered through a large wooden door from the stable courtyard and leads through a decorative arch with French pane glass doors. The large kitchen/breakfast room is completely bespoke.

Within the kitchen is a door to the larder leading through to the wine room with brick-built wine bins on a brick floor. Beyond is the garden room with adjoining flower room with walk-in shower.

The principal bedrooms are on the south side of the Court and are again well proportioned. There are four main rooms to the front of the Court currently arranged as two bedrooms with bathrooms and large dressing rooms. There is an additional bedroom with shower room, three further bedrooms, family bathroom, laundry room, sitting area and an additional dressing/study area.

The first floor of the annex contains three further bedrooms and a bathroom.

The accommodation is well suited to both family living and entertaining, as can be seen on the floor plans.

Gardener's Cottage
Attached to the main house is the Gardener's Cottage which consists of three bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor, with two large reception rooms, a kitchen and cloakroom on the ground floor. The cottage and its garden are accessed from the stable courtyard at the rear of the Court.

The Stable Courtyard
This consists of three stables, large entertainment/games room, four garages, store rooms and workshops. Additional first floor storage. It offers enormous potential subject to the necessary consents.

Gardens and Grounds
To the front of the Court is a large entertaining terrace with a walkway leading directly away from the front door over a pretty wooden bridge down an avenue of trees through the gardens and the woodland. The formal gardens were designed by the renowned Tom Stuart-Smith and envelope the Court and extend along the main façade on the south side. There is a large area laid to a level well kept lawn with mature specimen shrubs and herbaceous borders. On one side is a slightly sunken brick parquet garden. Beyond the lawned area is a beautiful stone pillared rose walk that leads one way to a second bridge over the brook, and the other way to the walled garden.

At the far end of the garden is a raise and enclosed area with a brick built summer house positioned in the one corner. To the rear of the formal gardens is a large, walled garden with an all-weather tennis court.

A raised bed is to one end with fruit trees and a vegetable garden that has enclosed beds with box hedging. There is also a more informal area of the garden with a greenhouse and raised herb beds.

In a very private position is an enclosed swimming pond with an orangery to the side. The swimming pond is a beautiful feature. It contains a lined swimming pool which does not require the use of chlorine.

The gardens and grounds are immaculate. The brook meanders through the gardens and grounds and to the other side is an area of woodland with delightful walks through and a large field beyond. The brook contains wild brown trout and has double bank fishing through the land.

The Land
A large field of permanent pasture. Fenced and largely hedged, with gated access directly to the lane.
