A spacious patio and gravelled section offer ample space for seating areas, with a charming wooden pergola to one side. A timber summerhouse and deck provide a perfect setting for alfresco dining or relaxing.

Dunhampstead is a small and peaceful hamlet nestled between Droitwich Spa and Worcester. Its tranquil setting is defined by surrounding countryside and its close proximity to the Worcester and Birmingham Canal, offering scenic walks and a slower pace of life. The property sits adjacent to the former Firs Inn, now operating as a popular coffee shop and social spot for walkers and locals alike.
Despite its rural feel, Dunhampstead is extremely well-connected. The historic spa town of Droitwich is just a few minutes’ drive away, offering a wide range of shops, supermarkets, pubs, restaurants and leisure facilities. Worcester city centre is also within easy reach, providing excellent schooling, culture and transport links.
The area benefits from easy access to the M5 at Junctions 5 and 6, making it ideal for commuters or those needing to travel regionally. The surrounding countryside includes a network of public footpaths, bridleways and canal towpaths, with Bredon Hill and the Malvern Hills both within striking distance for weekend adventures.
The property benefits from oil-fired central heating and mains electricity and water. Drainage is supplied via a private septic tank. The cold water tank serving the hot water and heating system is located on the roof. This setup has worked reliably for over 40 years, keeping the house consistently warm.

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.
