Set on the edge of Wichenford, The Forge is a deceptively spacious Grade II listed cottage that blends period character with a sympathetic extension. Original features — inglenook fireplaces, exposed timbers and sash-style aspects — sit alongside practical family living spaces: a well‑fitted kitchen with dining area and French doors, two living rooms both with log burners, utility and cloakroom.
Accommodation is flexible and suits a family or multi-generational living. The detached outbuilding/annexe (living/bedroom, kitchen, shower room) offers private space for guests, older children or home‑working. The main bedroom enjoys built‑in wardrobes and a Juliet balcony taking in open countryside views.
Outside, the plot is a strength: recently re‑landscaped, well‑planted gardens deliver privacy, with a large gravel driveway, garage and additional store. A cellar runs beneath the main house with external access. The location is rural and peaceful yet within reasonable reach of Worcester, local primary schools and regional road links.
Important practical points you should know: Grade II listed status may restrict alterations and can complicate planning or maintenance. The property has private drainage and oil‑fired central heating; services and appliances have not been tested. Council Tax is Band F (expensive). Broadband is estimated around 79 Mbps in the area and mobile signal is average. The house is sold freehold and is subject to any public rights of way, easements and boundary responsibilities.
