A substantial late‑Victorian semi‑detached house offering over 3,800 sq ft of flexible family living across three floors. Grand reception rooms, high ceilings and original sash windows create strong period character, while the large kitchen, separate utility and study support modern family routines and home working. The property includes a self‑contained one‑bed annexe with private entrance — ideal for older children, live‑in help or rental income.
The plot is an exceptional feature: roughly 0.3 acres of mature, private gardens with specimen trees, sweeping lawns and sheltered seating areas. Driveway parking for several cars, a garage and useful cellar add practical space; main services and super‑fast broadband are already connected. The location is a short walk from Worcester city centre, top schools and riverside amenities — convenient for family life and commuting.
There are practical points to note. The house has solid brick walls with no known cavity insulation (as built), so owners should budget for potential thermal upgrades. A lapsed planning permission exists for a detached house at the bottom of the garden — an opportunity for development but not a current consent. Council tax is described as expensive; maintenance of a large period property and grounds will require ongoing investment.
Overall, 29 Battenhall Road is a rare combination of generous period proportions, a large private plot and adaptable accommodation for multigenerational living. It will suit families seeking space and character who are comfortable with the maintenance and running costs typical of a substantial Victorian home.
