Wheel Cottage is a substantially extended, newly renovated four-bedroom period cottage set on an elevated plot in the small hamlet of Hill Pool, near Chaddesley Corbett. The recent works have created a large, light-filled open-plan kitchen/dining/living space with bifold doors and skylights, while retaining character features such as a multifuel fireplace, exposed beams and original wood flooring. The property totals about 3,219 sq ft and sits on a generous plot with mature planting and far-reaching views towards the Clent Hills.
The accommodation is flexible: the principal suite includes a dressing room and ensuite, a second bedroom also has an ensuite, and one of the rooms is currently used as a gym while another serves as a study — either could be returned to bedroom use to provide a fifth room. Practical conveniences include underfloor heating in key ground-floor zones, a fitted utility with boiler, double glazing throughout and off-street parking for 3–4 vehicles. Mobile signal and broadband speeds are reported as excellent and fast, supporting home working or streaming needs.
Buyers should note a few material points: the house is a pre-1900 solid brick build and external wall insulation is assumed absent, so inspect thermal performance and running costs carefully. Council Tax sits in band E (above average), and as with any older cottage there is ongoing maintenance risk despite the recent renovation. The location is peaceful and rural — ideal for those seeking countryside life — but it is a hamlet setting, so amenities and services are village/town-distance rather than on the doorstep.
Overall this property will suit families or those seeking a spacious, characterful home with modern living spaces and excellent outdoor privacy. It offers immediate move-in readiness with scope to adapt internal layouts to personal needs and to further landscape the extensive gardens to maximise the views and sun-trap areas.
