Bromyard Road, Crown East, WR2 5TR

Aymestrey Court, situated in Crown East near Worcester, has a rich history dating back to its construction in 1860. The Victorian mansion was built by Albert Hudson Royds, who acquired the Crown East estate in 1855. The design of the mansion is attributed to William J. Hopkins, the Worcester Diocesan architect at the time. In 1922, the property was sold and transformed into a boys' preparatory school, which operated until its closure in 1997 due to declining enrolment and increasing regulatory constraints. Subsequently, the mansion underwent conversion into residential homes, blending its historical significance with modern living spaces. 2 Aymestrey Court is a 5-bedroom wing of the larger building. This house offers superb family accommodation in a parkland setting. Boasting three bath/shower rooms over three floors, this property exudes classic country living charm. The interior features spacious reception rooms, a home office, and a workshop in the cellars, along with a classic kitchen adorned with stunning flagstone flooring. Resonating with history, this home offers a slice of an enormous mansion house, with large gardens and grounds including a courtyard garden, extensive lawn, greenhouse, and a detached garage. The unique and stunning Oak tree lined avenue for its driveway sets the scene for the incredible approach to this historical gem, just minutes away from the heart of Worcester.
