The Lock House is a historic former lock-keeper’s cottage (c.1800) set in over four acres of landscaped gardens, woodland, ponds and a productive vineyard. Character features — exposed beams, a vaulted kitchen with AGA, bay windows and brick-vaulted cellars — combine with generous reception rooms and a bright conservatory to create a comfortable country family home. Practical outbuildings, garaging and a wide gravel driveway provide useful storage and ample parking.
This property suits buyers seeking privacy and rural lifestyle close to Tenbury Wells. The large kitchen/dining space, principal bedroom with en suite and the cellar wine room add immediate lifestyle value, while the grounds and outbuildings offer potential for hobby farming, equestrian uses or small-scale diversification. Fast fibre broadband supports home working despite the secluded setting.
Buyers should note practical constraints: heating is oil-fired with Liquid Propane Gas, drainage is via a private septic tank and the council tax is high (Band G). The site sits within a medium flood risk area and the property occupies a remote hamlet position reached by an 800m private drive. A reservation fee is required on accepted offers (0.5% under £800,000; 1% at or above £800,000), refundable on exchange under specified conditions.
