Situation Prospect Cottage is situated on the edge of glorious countryside just south of The Malvern Hills. It stands on a quiet country lane in the scattered hamlet of Berrow that has an attractive church dating back to Norman Times. The nearby villages of Pendock, Red Marley D Abitot and Welland offer excellent village amenities, whilst everyday requirements are met in the market towns of Ledbury, Great Malvern and Tewkesbury. More specialist shopping is offered in Worcester City which is only 15 miles away and of course, Cheltenham, which is well renowned for its selection of high class shops. This rural location is ideal as it has good access to regional centres and major communication links. The M50 at Junction 2 is within 4 miles providing a direct route to the M5 Corridor, which has good access to Birmingham, Gloucester and Bristol conurbations. Mainline rail services operate from Ledbury, Malvern and Worcester, with connections to Birmingham and London. Local foot and bridle paths provide excellent walking and riding in some of Worcestershire s more stunning countryside and nearby is excellent riding over Castlemorton Common. For sale freehold Prospect Cottage is a delightful mellow red brick cottage that has a carved stone plaque to its front elevation dated 1877. Originally a traditional farmer s cottage it has been carefully extended in 1994 to what is now a wonderful country home. The large windows give a great feeling of space and light particularly to the main reception rooms. The extension has created a fine drawing room with its large brick inglenook fireplace that has a Clearview log burner at its centre. A pair of french doors lead out onto a south facing patio area and a large, floor to ceiling window with views on to the large rear garden. At the heart of the cottage is the large living/dining room with exposed timber framing and front door that leads to the gardens. There is a Clearview logburner inset in the fireplace and a bressummer beam above.
The fully fitted kitchen has contemporary painted oak wall and floor mounted units with a full range of fitted Neff appliances. The kitchen has an exposed stone wall to one side. Exposed timbers and beams are throughout the cottage. The reception hall is spacious and comfortably allows plenty of room to have a study area. The utility has an exceptionally large bread oven that may indicate that Prospect Cottage may have done the baking for the village. On the first floor the new extension has created a fine master bedroom. This enjoys the pleasant outlook over the gardens through the willow trees to Bredon Hill in the distance. A large en suite bathroom enjoys an aspect across open countryside to the full length of the Malvern Hills. The en suite bathroom is tastefully fitted with twin wash hand basins in a vanity unit and has beech wood tops. The two further bedrooms share the family bathroom.
