Trimpley Lane, Shatterford, DY12

The Haven is a substantial 1950s built traditional detached bungalow in this most sought after rural hamlet around three miles north of Kidderminster which is easily accessible by car in around 5 minutes.

There are distant views over countryside towards Kinver from this elevated position, and the property enjoys a great degree of privacy, not being overlooked from the front or rear.

The porch entrance leads through to a central reception hall featuring Amtico flooring and an in-build linen closet next to the bathroom, with doors radiating off to all principal rooms.

The bungalow offers a spacious and flexible layout with three double bedrooms, one of which is currently used as a well proportioned dining room, with a bay window to the front and gas fire. 

The property is certainly not short of living space, with an excellent 18'9" x 11'11" lounge featuring Karndean flooring plus multifuel stove on slate hearth and sliding patio doors opening through to the rear conservatory, providing a delightful vantage point from which to look over the gardens.

The principal bedroom has a window to the front and includes a comprehensive range of fitted wardrobes, whilst the second bedroom to the rear also includes fitted wardrobes and has the additional benefit of a light and airy en-suite dressing or morning room, overlooking the garden.

Furthermore the adjoining rear lobby and WC has clear scope for conversion to an en-suite bathroom if required, with potential to create a splendid master bedroom suite to the rear.

The bathroom features wall & floor tiling, a chrome heated towel rail, vanity unit with hand basin & close-coupled wc plus panelled bath with folding screen and mixer shower above. The owners advise that the bathroom also has a disconnected electric underfloor heating system in situ.

The galley-style kitchen extends 23' in length, divided into two sections with a range of cream wall & base cabinets, breakfast bar and sliding patio doors to the rear.

A door from the kitchen also gives access to a separate utility area with steps down to the open plan integral garage, having pedestrian door to the side pathway.

A covered passageway provides front-to-rear access to the right hand side of the property, including a greenhouse with thermostatically controlled heating system. To the left side of the property there is substantial workshop & store with power & lighting.

To the front of the property a block-paved front driveway and forecourt provides parking for up to six cars, and also includes planted flower beds and borders providing a most attractive frontage.

The generous rear lawn is edged by well stocked borders planted with a profusion of established flowers and shrubs providing year-round colour and interest together with two specimen acer trees.

Nearby amenities within walking distance include the Bellmans Cross pub & Dominique's French Restaurant, as well as Shatterford Village Hall which is at the centre of this rural community. Just over a mile further down the lane is the picture postcard village of Upper Arley on the banks of the River Severn, with tea room, post office and footbridge over the river where the Harbour Inn and Severn Valley Railway station can be found.
