Description
Approached via a long private driveway and set within approximately 1.67 acres of beautiful wrap-around gardens, this substantial detached residence offers over 6,000 sq. ft. of versatile accommodation - ideal for family living and entertaining alike.

A pair of arched double doors open into an inviting entrance porch, leading to a generous entrance hall with an understairs storage cupboard, guest WC, and access to the principal reception rooms. The accommodation includes a vast L-shaped, split-level living room with an open fireplace and French doors to the garden, a separate sitting room with a gas living flame fire and external access, and a formal dining room with its own open fireplace. An interconnecting reception room currently serves as a bar, while the spacious kitchen/dining room enjoys direct garden access via a side porch. From the hall, there is also a dedicated office, a utility room, and internal access to the double garage.

A particular highlight of the home is the impressive heated indoor swimming pool, measuring between 4ft and 9ft in depth, accessed via the living room. The pool area features an expansive surrounding patio, an adjoining entertainment room, and two sets of double doors opening onto the gardens. The pool benefits from its own dedicated oil-fired boiler.

Upstairs, the first floor offers a luxurious main bedroom suite with built-in wardrobes, dual-aspect views, and an en suite shower room with dual basins and a steam shower. A second double bedroom features two walk-in wardrobes, an en suite with dual basins and a steam shower, and lovely outward views. There is also a third double bedroom with dual-aspect views, a walk-in wardrobe, and an en suite shower room with steam shower, plus a fourth double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and garden views. Two further single box rooms provide additional flexibility, served by a family bathroom complete with a jacuzzi tub.

A set of wooden stairs leads from the landing to a loft room, featuring two Velux windows, built-in cupboards, and eaves storage — currently set up as a child’s bedroom (limited ceiling height). An additional loft space, accessed via a pull-down ladder from bedroom three, includes a Velux window and is boarded for storage, while a third loft area (housing the hot water tank) is accessed from the landing. The property also benefits from fibre broadband connectivity.

Outside
The grounds are a true feature, offering an array of beautifully landscaped zones including an orchard, extensive lawns, mature trees and shrubs, a fibreglass fish pond, a secure fenced dog patio, and two outbuildings — one housing the oil tank and the other the swimming pool boiler.

The property is approached via a long driveway that opens onto a large side parking area with access to the double garage (with electric door). A further driveway continues to the front of the house, providing ample additional parking.

This exceptional home combines impressive scale, flexible accommodation, and immense potential to personalise, all set within private and picturesque surroundings in the sought-after area of Marlbrook, Bromsgrove.
