A Grade II listed 16th Century cottage situated within the peaceful backwaters of a medieval market town. Perfect for couples wanting to step back in time and enjoy an area steeped in history and natural beauty.

Take some time to enjoy the views across the River Avon before you step back in time, this grade II listed cottage forms part of a terrace of pretty black and white cottages fronted with cobbled pathways and seasonal window boxes. Step inside, the living space is open-plan with many original features complemented with homely touches. A perfect bolt hole for couples with the ground floor offering a cosy space for relaxing in front of the TV/DVD, a beautiful Art Nouveau range with open fire set within an exposed red brick chimney breast will keep you warm when the nights draw in. The kitchen area with electric oven and hob, microwave and fridge with ice compartment and a table and chairs are set to the side for a simple supper. So, when the sun goes down there is a steep curving staircase that leads up to a double bedroom here you can enjoy views over the Severn Ham and Malvern Hills, there is an en-suite bathroom with a half-bath and WC (bath located in corner of bedroom).
