Bewdley Hill, Kidderminster

A highly individual, detached, split-level home with an incredibly adaptable layout, situated on an extensive plot approaching one-quarter of an acre.

An incredibly unique and versatile home that can cater to various requirements, likely appealing to buyers of all ages.

The adaptability of this property allows for three to five bedrooms across the three floors. The extended interior floods with light from a south-facing rear aspect and boasts high ceilings and a large living area, which offers an excellent blend of open-plan spaces and quieter, cosy places. The former are ideal for socialising and the latter are great for home working and those who appreciate quiet time. The internal footprint is extensive, having been substantially enlarged by the current owners.

Outside, a large south-facing garden awaits at the rear, providing the property with incredibly private outside space that is not overlooked. The plot, in total, extends to around 0.22 acres and includes a substantial block-paved driveway at the front.
