Set within one of Worcester’s most prestigious squares, this Grade II listed three-bedroom home combines classical proportions with contemporary living. The ground floor features generous reception rooms and a bright open-plan kitchen and snug, linked to a dining/sun room with glazed roof light and bi-fold doors that open onto a west-facing terrace and garden. The property includes a garage with storage room above and two resident on-street parking permits.
Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms, a family bathroom and a separate cloakroom. The top-floor attic has been converted and used successfully for two decades but does not have formal Building Control sign-off; buyers should allow for regularisation or re-certification if required. A cellar provides a kitchenette and shower room, offering flexible ancillary accommodation.
This house presents many immediate positives: high ceilings, original sash windows, fireplaces, timber floors and a contemporary kitchen with island and Aga. As a Grade II listed building, any alterations will need listed-building consent and may limit some renovation options. The attic conversion and any future works will require careful attention to approval and compliance.
Practical considerations: council tax is high, the local area records higher crime levels than average, and the wider neighbourhood has pockets of deprivation despite the square’s handsome, well-maintained character. On the upside, the location places city amenities, good schools, riverside walks and Foregate Street station within easy reach — a strong draw for families or professionals seeking characterful city living with private outdoor space.
