An incredibly special home, which surely cannot fail to impress. In terms of both the location, outside space, and presentation, it is hard to find anything to match on the Spennells or even Kidderminster as a whole.

The property pays tribute to the vision and hard work of the current owners, who have undertaken a no-expense-spared renovation of the house, completely transforming it from a typical 1970s house to a high-quality contemporary home ideal for modern living. As part of the process, the appearance of the outside has been given a fantastic makeover with the addition of larch wood cladding.
The property features a truly tremendous interior that has been beautifully refurbished to an incredibly high standard. On the ground floor, the rear of the property has been made completely open plan, combining living, dining, and cooking in one space with the added benefit of amazing views of the neighbouring nature reserve. The high-end kitchen is complemented by underfloor heating which runs throughout the ground floor and a fantastic ultra-modern Dimplex Optiv electric fire in the living room.
On the first floor, the fantastic makeover continues, with the four double bedrooms having been tastefully decorated, whilst the stunning master suite has been given a newly refurbished ensuite and a delightful Juliet balcony which provides beautiful views of the gardens and nature woodland beyond. The incredibly spacious bathroom has similarly been modernised to an excellent standard. The improvements do not stop there, as new windows and doors have been added throughout.
The extensive south-facing rear garden has been thoughtfully improved, including the addition of a wonderful ornamental pond with a waterfall and pebbled rockery.
The property is approached by a substantial tarmacadam driveway, which can cater for multiple vehicles, including caravans, motorhomes, and the like. Nicely tucked away in one corner is a detached double garage which has an electric up-and-over door, power, and lighting.
From the driveway, a composite front door leads to the welcoming hallway, which has the same underfloor heating and porcelain tiles that run throughout the ground floor and is zone controllable. The hall also has stairs rising to the first floor and oak doors leading to the ground floor accommodation, including glazed double doors to the main living space.
Kitchen/living/dining room
The open-plan section of this property will wow any that come through the door. The living area has the most wonderful contemporary 'virtual' fire along with a built-in media station, useful decorative recesses, surround sound, and French doors out to the garden.
The living room is completely open plan to a dining area and the kitchen beyond, with the latter fitted to a high standard, including quartz worktops and a central island, an AEG induction hob, a built-in microwave, two ovens, an integrated warming draw, an integrated fridge freezer and dishwasher, plus a fantastic butler’s pantry.
The kitchen also benefits from French doors out to the garden and an internal door to the adjoining utility room which features the same quartz work surfaces along with wall and base units.
Conservatory
The open plan space also benefits from a remarkable modern conservatory, filled with natural light and surrounded with views of the garden.
The conservatory provides the perfect space to unwind, entertain, or simply enjoy the changing seasons throughout the year.
Study and cloakroom
There is a useful study tucked away in a quiet corner of the downstairs off the hallway with a very nicely styled cloakroom/WC completing the ground floor accommodation.
First floor
The first-floor accommodation is accessed via an extremely spacious landing which features a designer radiator, downlighters, storage cupboard, and window.
Master bedroom
The expansive master bedroom is nothing short of outstanding, flooding with light from a large picture window and French doors which lead out to a Juliet balcony.
This room also has downlighters, a designer radiator, and a door to the accompanying ensuite.
The ensuite is tastefully styled to a lovely standard with attractive tiling, a shower cubicle, fitted furniture incorporating a wash basin, storage, a low-level WC and underfloor heating.
Bedrooms two, three and four
The three remaining bedrooms are all spacious and light double rooms and are similarly equipped with designer radiators.
Bathroom
The bedrooms are serviced by a luxurious family bathroom, which is incredibly spacious and styled to the most excellent of standards. Comprising underfloor heating, beautiful tiling, a designer vertical radiator, a large walk-in shower cubicle in addition to a free-standing bathtub, along with a stylish wall-mounted sink incorporating storage beneath.
Garden
An outstanding property such as this is not complete without quality outside space, and the gardens, totalling 1/4 acre, could not get much better. Spennells Valley Nature Reserve provides the backdrop and off to the left through the trees is Captains Pool Lake, together making for the most tranquil of settings more akin to a country home.
The current owners have done marvellous things in the garden too, which brings this vibrant outside space to life. Directly at the rear of the house is a large, paved patio accompanied by the most delightful ornamental pond and water feature surrounded by pebbles and exotic plants.
The patio gives way to a large sweeping lawn, which gradually descends to a wooded section of the garden, which is home to lots of native trees and wildflowers and seamlessly blends into the nature reserve beyond.
The garden also features a side patio ideal for drying, a side gate, and a large wooden shed nicely tucked away in one corner.
Mains gas, electricity, water, and drainage. Broadband is available at this property.

Reservation Fee - refundable on exchange
A reservation fee, refundable on exchange, is payable prior to the issue of the Memorandum of Sale and after which the property may be marked as Sold Subject to Contract. The fee will be reimbursed upon the successful Exchange of Contracts.
The fee will be retained by Andrew Grant in the event that you the buyer withdraws from the purchase or does not Exchange within 6 months of the fee being received other than for one or more of the following reasons:
1. Any significant material issues highlighted in a survey that were not evident or drawn to the attention of you the buyer prior to the Memorandum of Sale being issued.
2. Serious and material defect in the seller’s legal title.
3. Local search revealing a matter that has a material adverse effect on the market value of the property that was previously undeclared and not in the public domain.
4. The vendor withdrawing the property from sale.
The reservation fee will be 0.5% of the accepted offer price for offers below £800,000 and 1% for offers of £800,000 or over. This fee, unless specified otherwise, is payable upon acceptance by the vendor of an offer from a buyer and completion of an assessment of the buyer’s financial status and ability to proceed.
Should a buyer’s financial position regarding the funding of the property prove to be fundamentally different from that declared by the buyer when the Memorandum of Sale was completed, then the Vendor has the right to withdraw from the sale and the reservation fee retained. For example, where the buyer declares themselves as a cash buyer but are in fact relying on an unsecured sale of their property.
Once the reservation fee has been paid, any renegotiation of the price stated in the memorandum of sale for any reason other than those covered in points 1 to 3 above will lead to the reservation fee being retained. A further fee will be levied on any subsequent reduced offer that is accepted by the vendor. This further fee will be subject to the same conditions that prevail for all reservation fees outlined above.
