A beautifully renovated former school house in the heart of the village.
Set back from the lane adjacent to the church, The Old School House is a handsome detached family home that extends to around 2,581 square feet over two floors. Dating to 1855, the house has been sympathetically and tastefully renovated by the current owners to create a very comfortable village property with contemporary 'Homes and Gardens' styling that enhances beautiful period features. The main drawing room focuses on a stone fireplace fitted with a wood burner and is fully vaulted to the eaves with a gallery above. The room enjoys the benefit of the huge south facing window that floods it with natural light. A secret door leads to a study and there is also a formal dining room. Classic parquet flooring runs through from the hallway into the kitchen (Neptune kitchen and utility) where two sets of French doors on either side of the house lead out onto garden terraces. The kitchen revolves around a large central island and there is a separate utility room and pantry. On the first floor, the two guest bedrooms have built in wardrobes, the principal suite having both built in storage, a walk-in wardrobe and a beautifully appointed en-suite complete with a roll top bath and a separate shower. A family bathroom completes the accommodation. Landscaped and beautifully planted, the pretty cottage gardens are on two sides of the house linked by a private south facing terrace and completely enclosed by tall boundary walls and iron railings making the space very private and 'dog friendly'.A path runs down the garden between the kitchen terrace past a greenhouse to the double garage and workshop. There is off road parking in front of the garage for 2 cars and an electric car charging point. Services: Mains sewage, water and electricity are connected. Under floor heating throughout powered by an air source heat pump. LPG gas hob for the cooker. The house is located within the village Conservation boundary but is not historically listed.
Set within a kink of the River Avon, Birlingham is a vibrant and very pretty village located under the backdrop of Bredon Hill on the Worcestershire/Gloucestershire borders. The property sits in the heart of the village, overlooking the Church of St. James the Great and close to the village hall. Birlingham is also lucky enough to have village pub (The Swan) and a cricket club.For a wider range of amenities, the nearby Georgian town of Pershore is a ten minute drive, whilst further shopping is available in Worcester and the Regency spa town of Cheltenham.Communications are excellent with access to the M5 motorway linking in to the wider motorway network. Trains run from Worcester Parkway or Evesham to London Paddington and Birmingham International airport is within striking distance.There is an excellent range of schooling in Cheltenham, Malvern and Worcester as well as the nearby Bredon School.Pershore 2.5 miles, Evesham 9 miles, Worcester 11 miles, Cheltenham 15.5 miles, Birmingham 36.5 miles, Bristol 55 miles (distances approximate)
