Description
Greystones is a charming historic home which combines considerable character with the comforts expected of modern family living, having been comprehensively modernised and improved. I n addition to the main house, there is the benefit of a useful garden office with power, heating and telephone connection, providing excellent flexibility for home working or hobbies.
The property has an interesting history, having originally formed part of one larger dwelling together with the adjoining house. A stone date tablet on the neighbouring property records 1804, although it is understood that Greystones has even earlier origins. The quality of the restoration and remodelling is also reflected in the fact that the developer responsible retained the neighbouring home for his own occupation and continues to reside there today.
Properties of this nature are rarely available in such an immensely sought after location, prized for its attractive countryside setting, village appeal, and highly regarded school catchment., namely, Abberley Parochial Primary School at Abberley and The Chantry School at Martley.
Menith Wood is a particularly pretty Worcestershire village surrounded by unspoilt rolling countryside, whilst remaining accessible to the surrounding towns and villages. Kidderminster lies approximately 12 miles away and the market town of Tenbury Wells about 9 miles distant. Clows Top is approximately 2.5 miles away and provides a village store and Post Office, whilst nearby Pensax is home to The Bell, a well-known and historic public house and restaurant.
A notable feature of the village is Menith Wood Millennium Green, a beautifully maintained 10-acre community green space comprising open meadow, mature trees and informal walking paths. Held in trust for the benefit of the local community, it provides a wonderful setting for walking, dog exercise, and quiet enjoyment of the surrounding countryside, and is a rare amenity that enhances both the character of the village and the quality of life on offer.
