Location
Wayside enjoys an elevated position on the outskirts of Bredons Norton, one of the regions most highly regarded villages which is located on the western slopes of Bredon Hill at the northern edge of the Cotswolds and close to the border of South Worcestershire and Gloucestershire. The River Avon runs nearby and the property is well placed for fast access to Tewkesbury (approx. 5 miles), Pershore (approx. 6 miles), Evesham (approx. 12 miles) and Junction 9 of the M5 motorway (approx. 5 miles). From its slightly raised position it enjoys fine views over open countryside.
Transport communications are excellent. The nearby M5 motorway provides fast links to South Wales, The South West, London, Birmingham and The Midlands. This is complimented by an excellent rail network with stations in all of the main local towns including Tewkesbury, Pershore and Evesham. These same towns also offer a wide choice of schools at both primary and secondary levels. The charming villages of Eckington and Bredon are both only two miles away. Bredon has a Doctors Surgery, Post Office, Primary School and Pub. Eckington has a Primary School, Village Shop and Pubs.
For those who enjoy outdoor activities or walking this is the perfect spot as there is access to numerous countryside walks, The Cotswolds, the Avon and Severn Valleys.
Description
Originally constructed in the 1960's, Wayside is a traditional detached two storey house which has been the subject of significant extension over the years. The result is a family home which offers flexible and generous accommodation. This includes an enclosed entrance porch, hallways, a study that can double as a fourth bedroom when necessary, lounge, an open plan kitchen and dining room, utility room, a large living room and a shower room with WC all on the ground floor. At first floor level a large landing leads to three bedrooms, a dressing room, bathroom and shower room. The house also has gas fired central heating and double glazed windows. From the majority of the rooms there are views to the front across open countryside.
Outside a wide tarmac driveway provides off road parking for three vehicles and leads to a double length tandem garage. The garden is another of Waysides great strengths. It is designed to keep maintenance to a minimum but at the same time to provide interest and colour throughout the year, blending well established lawns, fully stocked borders, numerous well established shrubs and mature trees with strategically placed seating areas. The outlook from the front garden is a particular feature.
