About this home
Tucked away in a highly sought-after central Worcester location, this truly unique detached one-bedroom home offers an exceptional opportunity to acquire a freehold property unlike anything else currently available on the market. Recently and comprehensively improved, the property combines contemporary styling with privacy, practicality and low-maintenance living, making it ideal for those seeking something genuinely different.
The accommodation begins on the ground floor with a welcoming entrance hall and useful boot room, providing practical storage and an excellent first impression. The generous double bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes and enjoys direct access to the private rear garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. Completing the ground floor is a modern shower room finished to a high standard.
A striking spiral staircase leads to the first floor, where the property truly comes into its own. Bathed in natural light from multiple windows and Velux skylights, the impressive open-plan living and kitchen area provides a bright and inviting living space. The contemporary kitchen was replaced in August 2023 and offers a stylish focal point for the home. The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to maximise both style and functionality, while the open layout provides excellent flexibility for everyday living and entertaining.
Externally, the property continues to impress. A private enclosed garden offers a wonderful retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life, featuring a patio area ideal for al fresco dining alongside a lawned section perfect for relaxing or gardening enthusiasts. Access is available via a secure side gate, enhancing both convenience and privacy.
Further benefits include two allocated parking spaces, freehold ownership and a no onward chain position.
The current owner has invested significantly in the property, including the installation of new double-glazed windows in May 2023 and modern WiFi-enabled electric heating, allowing temperatures to be controlled remotely for convenience and efficiency. There is also electric hot water tank installed in January 2023.
Rarely do properties of this style and individuality become available. Offering detached living, private outdoor space, extensive recent upgrades and a highly convenient city location, this is a genuinely one-of-a-kind home that must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
