The kitchen
The kitchen forms the practical centre of the open plan ground floor accommodation. An island with breakfast bar complements extensive cabinetry and generous preparation surfaces, with an integrated hob with extractor hood, oven and grill.

Glazed doors open directly onto the patio and garden, while the broad hallway opens into the dining room for a seamless flow. From the kitchen there is also access to the utility, providing a valuable additional space.

The utility
The utility keeps everyday household tasks separate from the principal kitchen. Cabinetry, a sink and space for appliances are arranged along the room, with doors connecting both to the kitchen and the covered outdoor kitchen area. Its position creates a practical transition between the interior and the garden entertaining areas.

The dining room
Designed for gathering and entertaining, the dining room provides an exceptionally generous setting beside the kitchen. A broad opening to the hallway allows the two areas to work together as one sociable space. Extensive cabinetry provides valuable additional storage alongside a sink and space for appliances.

The sitting room / study
The sitting room offers a more intimate alternative to the larger reception spaces while also serving as a well appointed study. A wide bay window and characterful fireplace create strong focal points, complemented by integrated bookshelves, extensive built in wardrobes and dedicated desk space. Positioned beside the downstairs shower room, this space could also work well as an occasional guest suite or bedroom for someone seeking ground floor accommodation.

The downstairs shower room
The downstairs shower room is conveniently arranged for family members, visitors and potential ground floor guests. Refurbished approximately four years ago, it includes a glazed shower enclosure, wash basin with vanity storage and WC. Its position immediately beside the sitting room allows the two spaces to work particularly well together.

The living room
Extending across an impressive proportion of the ground floor, the living room accommodates several distinct seating areas with ease. A wood burning stove set against a stone feature creates a central focal point, while new glazed doors open onto the rear garden. The room has also been redecorated and newly carpeted during 2026 as part of the vendors’ continued investment in the home.

The entrance hall
The entrance hall introduces the open and spacious character of the ground floor. From here, the principal reception rooms are readily accessible and the newly carpeted staircase rises to the first floor accommodation. Its broad arrangement provides a welcoming central point from which the interconnected living spaces unfold.

The primary bedroom
The primary bedroom provides a comfortable private retreat with generous proportions and dual windows providing ample light. Its most distinctive feature is the spiral staircase rising directly to the second floor office, creating an unusual and highly practical arrangement. This bedroom has also received new carpeting during 2026 and an adjoining en suite completes this well considered principal suite.

The primary en suite
Refurbished in 2025, the primary en suite is arranged with a glazed shower enclosure, WC and wash basin set above a vanity unit. Its direct connection to the bedroom provides privacy and everyday convenience, while the well planned layout makes effective use of the available space.

The office
Reached by a spiral staircase from the primary bedroom, the second floor office provides a flexible setting for working, studying, sewing or creative pursuits. A Velux window is set within the sloping ceiling, while the adjoining loft area offers extensive storage. This separate upper level gives the room a valuable sense of privacy away from the main living accommodation.

The second bedroom
The second bedroom is a generously proportioned double room with ample space. Its en suite shower room provides valuable independence, making the accommodation particularly suitable for older children, guests or multigenerational living.

The second bedroom en suite
Refurbished in 2025, the second bedroom en suite provides a private shower facility arranged with a glazed enclosure, WC and wash basin. Direct access from the bedroom supports independent everyday use and adds further flexibility to the first floor accommodation.

The third bedroom
The third bedroom continues the generous proportions found throughout the first floor. Capable of accommodating a double bed alongside additional furniture, it offers a comfortable and adaptable space for family members or guests.

The fourth bedroom
Well suited to use as another double bedroom, the fourth bedroom provides practical proportions and a broad window overlooking the front of the home. Its regular layout allows sleeping and additional furniture areas to be arranged comfortably.

The bathroom
Newly completed in 2025, the family bathroom combines a freestanding bath with a separate glazed shower enclosure. A WC and wash basin with vanity storage complete the comprehensive arrangement, while its central position among the first floor bedrooms makes it convenient for shared family use.

The outdoor kitchen and living area
Created for outdoor cooking and entertaining, the substantial timber building incorporates a covered barbecue area, with the gas barbecue available by separate negotiation, and a separate sheltered seating space. Preparation counters and a wood burning stove support relaxed dining and social occasions throughout more of the year. Beyond the outdoor living area, an additional office and storage room provides valuable practical space away from the main home.

The garden
The particularly private rear garden has been thoughtfully arranged for recreation and entertaining. A large patio installed in 2023 opens onto the lawn, accompanied by two cooking apple trees, an eating apple tree, a Victoria plum and a greengage. A large shed provides storage, while the established planting creates an attractive backdrop throughout the garden.

A substantial structure at the bottom of the garden measures approximately 4.8m x 5.5m, providing around 284 sq ft and a larger floor area than many double garages. Currently at shell stage, it was intended to be fully insulated and finished with bifold doors across the front, creating scope for use as a gym, home office, studio, games room or another substantial ancillary space. Alternatively, the vendors would be happy to dismantle the structure if a buyer would prefer the additional garden space.

The driveway and parking
A broad driveway extends across the frontage, providing off road parking for multiple vehicles. The open arrangement allows straightforward access and turning space, while planted borders soften the boundary beside the pavement. The exterior has recently been repainted, with new windows and external doors installed in February 2026 as part of the considerable recent investment in the home.

Fernhill Heath combines a friendly village community with convenient access to Worcester and Droitwich Spa. The Brum provides a large central recreation space and hosts community events including Fun on the Brum. Ravenmeadow Golf Centre and crazy golf are within walking distance, alongside places to eat and drink including The Raven, Perdiswell House and The Mug House. Nearby countryside and canal walks around Ladywood further support an active lifestyle. Droitwich Spa offers a broad range of shops and amenities, while bus and rail options through Worcester, Droitwich and Worcester Parkway complement convenient access to the M5 and wider motorway network.

The property benefits from mains gas, electricity, water and drainage. A new boiler and hot-water cylinder were installed in 2021. A whole house water boosting system was subsequently installed in 2025, delivering consistent water pressure of approximately 3.5 bar throughout the property. This makes a considerable difference in a home with multiple bathrooms and showers, helping to maintain strong and reliable pressure when more than one is in use.

Reservation Fee - refundable on exchange

A reservation fee, refundable on exchange, is payable prior to the issue of the Memorandum of Sale and after which the property may be marked as Sold Subject to Contract. The fee will be reimbursed upon the successful Exchange of Contracts.

The fee will be retained by Andrew Grant in the event that you the Buyer withdraws from the purchase or does not Exchange within 6 months of the fee being received other than for one or more of the following reasons:

1. Any significant material issues which individually are more than 1% of the agreed purchase price and are highlighted in a survey and were not evident or drawn to the attention of you, the Buyer, prior to the Memorandum of Sale being issued.
2. Serious and material defect in the seller’s legal title.
3. Local search revealing a matter that has a material adverse effect on the market value of the property that was previously undeclared and not in the public domain.
4. The vendor withdrawing the property from sale.

The reservation fee will be 0.5% of the accepted offer price for offers below £800,000 and 1% for offers of £800,000 or over. This fee, unless specified otherwise, is payable upon acceptance by the vendor of an offer from a buyer and completion of an assessment of the buyer’s financial status and ability to proceed.

Should a buyer’s financial position regarding the funding of the property prove to be fundamentally different from that declared by the buyer when the Memorandum of Sale was completed, then the Vendor has the right to withdraw from the sale and/or the reservation fee retained. For example, where the buyer declares themselves as a cash buyer but are in fact relying on an unsecured sale of their property. The reservation fee will not be refunded where there is an inability on the part of the Buyer to raise any required mortgage after the Memorandum of Sale is completed.

Once the reservation fee has been paid, any renegotiation of the price stated in the memorandum of sale for any reason other than those covered in points 1 to 3 above will lead to the reservation fee being retained. A further fee will be levied on any subsequent reduced offer that is accepted by the vendor. This further fee will be subject to the same conditions that prevail for all reservation fees outlined above.

Compliance and Verification Fee

A Compliance and Verification Fee of £85 plus VAT (£102 inc VAT) per individual purchaser or related party requiring anti-money laundering, identity, source and proof of funds or financial verification checks is payable upon acceptance of an offer and receipt of the reservation fee.

This fee represents the cost of compliance administration and verification services undertaken in connection with the proposed purchase including anti-money laundering checks, sanctions screening, source of funds verification, proof of funds checks and associated compliance procedures.

The Compliance and Verification Fee shall be deducted from the reservation fee monies held by Andrew Grant.

No compliance or verification work shall be commenced until the reservation fee has been received in cleared funds.

The Compliance and Verification Fee becomes due immediately upon acceptance of the offer and receipt of the reservation fee and shall become non-refundable once any compliance or verification work has commenced, irrespective of whether the transaction subsequently proceeds to Exchange of Contracts or completion.

Where all or part of the reservation fee is refundable under the reservation fee terms, any Compliance and Verification Fees incurred shall first be deducted from the monies returned.
