Seller Insight

Hanbury is as small, welcoming, village close to Droitwich Spa and here, along this quiet lane, surrounded by magnificent open countryside, stands this impressive family home. Originally part of a working farm, this house has been part of an exclusive development of properties converted into quality homes.

A beautiful home which embraces both character and tradition, teamed with comforts and luxuries required for today’s lifestyles and conveniences. A home in which old and new jostle happily together teamed with lots of space and an adaptable layout, offering plenty of options for a brilliant family lifestyle, including a gym, plus areas for individual relaxation, alongside a good space for home working. With its rural setting, this property offered everything on their tick box for the owners on their search, just over two years ago. With its ample amount of glazing throughout, there is an overall impression of openness. The kitchen/dining area is an exceptional family area for sociable family life. It’s bifold doors open wide leading onto a large patio space presenting the very best in indoor/outside living.

Having such a large amount of land and open spaces, the family have really enjoyed this aspect of their home. In addition, the plentiful parking space, alongside generous internal and external space, it is, indeed, a magnificent home in which to share with family and friends, and parties for young family members have been particularly popular.

The welcoming village of Hanbury has lots of opportunities to enjoy the many miscellaneous events taking place from its village hall. There is a primary school here, but wider education requirements are available within easy reach. Quality supermarkets, sport and leisure amenities are close at hand. Historic Hanbury Hall is a favourite place to visit, and many events take place from here. Droitwich is on the doorstep with Worcester and Birmingham being very easy to visit.

It is purely for professionally logistical reasons that the owners are, sadly, saying farewell to this brilliant home, in which the whole family have experienced such a high qualitative lifestyle in such an amazing location. They wish its new owners much happiness and contentment.*

LOCATION

Uppington Hollow is located in the village of Hanbury in the Wychavon district of Worcestershire. Hanbury is a historic Worcestershire settlement lying on the “Saltway” which is a Roman road linking Droitwich, to the west, with Alcester and Warwickshire to the east. The current village is well served with amenities including a first school, the “Jinney Ring” craft centre, the Vernon Arms public house and a village hall which accommodates local clubs and activities, as well as the National Trust property of Hanbury Hall, set within its magnificent parkland estate. The property is close to the ever-popular Hanbury church and for dog lovers, provides excellent walks throughout the countryside.

Droitwich Spa provides for most daily needs with supermarkets, including Waitrose, a thriving precinct and high street with a mix of large brands, cafes, public houses and boutique shopping. The market town of Bromsgrove, lying to the north, is equally well served with busy commercial and retail outlets centred on its pedestrianised high street.

The county town and cathedral city of Worcester, lying on the banks of the River Severn, is some 10 miles south west providing for high street and boutique shopping, and characterised by one of England’s great cathedrals, its racecourse, county cricket ground, premiership rugby club and university.

The M5 motorway (accessed via junction 5 of the M5 at Wychbold or junction 6 at north Worcester) provides for ready access to the north and south-west, Birmingham (34 miles) and the surrounding industrial and commercial areas as well as Cheltenham and its racecourse (33 miles), Gloucester and Bristol (73 miles). The M42, lying to the north of Redditch also offers access to Birmingham International Airport (28 miles) and the north east. Road travel to London (118miles) is best via the M40 at Warwick (26 miles). The Parkway railway station at Warwick enables fast access to the capital and the electrified line from Redditch offers access to central Birmingham. The newly opened Worcestershire Parkway railway station, situated to the east of Worcester, off junction 7 of the M5, is also intended to increase the capacity to London as well as reduced journey times. This has a significant impact on Worcestershire’s accessibility to the capital and other regional centres.

If education is a priority, then Worcestershire is blessed with an enviable mix of schooling at all levels, including a variety of independent establishments, allowing parents to select the right environment for their children’s needs. These include, Bromsgrove School (5.9 miles), Malvern College (21 miles), The Kings Schools and Royal Grammar School at Worcester (12 miles), and the Alcester Grammar School at Alcester (10miles) in Warwickshire.

For days out and recreation, Uppington Hollow is well placed for ready access to the north Cotswolds and Broadway (26 miles), as well as Stratford-upon-Avon (18 miles), Great Malvern (20 miles) and the Malvern Hills, and Ludlow (36 miles). The west coast of Wales, at Aberdovey, is 106 miles.
