High Street, Badsey, Evesham

For Sale by Public Auction

Located in the heart of the village of Badsey, The Orchards, 18a High Street presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial Grade II Listed property offering significant redevelopment potential, subject to the necessary planning consents.

Extending to approximately 3,600 sq ft, the property comprises several distinct elements, including the original four-bedroom residence, a later two-bedroom extension with its own independent entrance and a detached garage and workshop. The property may appeal to developers, investors, or purchasers seeking to create a bespoke family home.

The Original House:
The original section of the property has been unoccupied for some time and is currently uninhabitable, requiring extensive refurbishment, repair and modernisation throughout. The accommodation briefly comprises an entrance hallway, two reception rooms, both featuring fireplaces, a kitchen, and separate ground-floor WC and bathroom facilities. To the first floor are four bedrooms and an internal landing area, which could be utilised as a study or office space. Stairs rise to a substantial loft area, offering storage or potential for further accommodation, subject to the necessary planning permissions, listed building consent and building regulations.

The Newer Extension:
The previous owners primarily occupied the newer section of the property, located to the rear. Whilst generally serviceable, this area would benefit from modernisation. The accommodation comprises a private entrance hall, lounge, breakfast kitchen and ground-floor WC. To the first floor are two bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Outside:
To the side of the property is an area understood to provide off-road parking, which extends to a detached garage and workshop. Above the workshop is useful loft storage space. The gardens are private and wrap around the rear of the property, offering a good degree of seclusion and further potential for enhancement.

Viewings - Due to health and safety considerations, internal inspections are currently not possible. External viewings may be arranged by appointment through the Auction Department.
